MUDLARKS - R'N'R War EP (2004)


 Catchy punk 'n' roll from Italy. Got this 7" free with a recent online order. Better than I was expecting to be honest.

CHAPEL - Demo 08 tape (2008)

 

Straight-up Venom worship straight outta Vancouver. One of my favourite local bands from the last decade. Half of these songs were re-recorded for their deadly debut LP, "Satan's Rock 'N' Roll".

DEKRET - Demo 1988 LP (2020)


 Don't know anything about this band as the liner notes on this record's in Polish. But hey, if you're into 80's punk from Poland give 'em a listen.

JÄRJESTYSHÄIRIÖ - S/T EP (2009)

 

Raw Suomi HC recorded in 1982. I think this was some side-project made up of dudes from Riistetyt and Kaaos. Half these songs were re-recorded for Riistetyt's debut album "Valtion Vankina" the same year.

VA - K7 Afrika Corps tape (1983)

Sampler of South Africa's first wave of punk, at a time when the country was under Apartheid and television was first introduced only a few years prior(1976!). More than half the cuts on this tape were taken from rough-ass live recordings, but the studio tracks make it worth a listen.
