VA - Raridades Vol. 1 EP (2008)

 

You don't really hear about early punk from Portugal in comparison to their next-door neighbours Spain. I do remember Lisbon having a thriving hardcore scene when I was there 20 years ago. This little 4 song sampler isn't really much to go on, but it'll have to do until someone releases a 'Bloodstains Across Portugal' or something.

VA - War Between The States: North tape (1985)


 Released the same time as the War Between The States-SOUTH tape I just posted. Like many comps, this one's hit and miss. Ripped from the recent CD-R reissue.

VA - War Between The States SOUTH tape (1985)

Cassette comp of mostly obscure USHC bands from the American South (with the exception of a few from Michigan and California. I know California is in the southern half of the States but not considered a Southern state, if you catch my drift). Ripped from a recent reissue of the 1989 pressing.

CONFLICT (US) - Live In Tuscon 12/3/1982 tape (2019)



Fairly decent live recording (by early 80's punk standards) featuring songs from their America's Right tape and Last Hour LP plus a couple not available on either. Speaking of America's Right, someone needs to reissue that demo on vinyl!
