For those that dug that OI OF JAPAN boot I posted recently, here's a comp of next wave street punk originally released on CD in 1994.

BAD BRAINS - Demos And Rare Tracks 1979-1983 LP (2023)
Picked this bootleg up on a recent trip to Seattle. I'm sure most of these versions have been available on the internet forever but a lot of them are new to my ears. Tracks 10-12 and 18-20 are the exact same recordings even though they're listed here as two different recording sessions. Plus I think some of the 1980 demos (tracks 1-7) are just slightly sped up versions of the Black Dots sessions, what do you think?

VA - Beating The Meat LP (1984)
Long out of print international HC comp featuring some of your favourite bands and some no one's heard of before or since. Ripped from the 2001 CD bootleg that was one big long track. Don't worry, I spliced that shit up for y'all.

THE DREAM DATES - Moans On The Phone EP (2005)
These hosers hailed from Hamilton Ontario, the same hometown as Teenage Head and Forgotten Rebels. Although these songs were recorded in 1979, tracks 1-2 weren't released until 2000 and 3-4 in '04 as 7" singles. The title track would've been considered a classic and featured on at least a few Killed By Death / Bloodstains type comps had it come out back then.

PARTY OWLS - Why Drag It Out? LP (1999)
Super catchy fun hardcore outta Houston Texas that I'd never heard of until recently. Recorded in 1985 and released 14 years later on a small label from Vancouver Island. They put out a 7" in 1983 that I now need to track down as well.
