THE DETONATORS - Yer Child's War single (1985)

 

A little 2 song sampler released between their debut and sophomore album that features a cut from each (despite the back cover stating they're both off the second LP). I still don't own either so this single will have to do for now. More Detonators HERE and HERE.

DOWN SYNDROME - S/T EP (1984)


Hardcore from Edmonton. Bought it cheap because the previous owner cut up the 6 panel foldout cover for some reason.

THE WARDELLS - Der Frühling tape (1986)

 

You may remember this band's sole vinyl platter I posted back in the fall of 2018. Welllll... after seven and a half years of searching, I finally tracked down another release by them! HUZZAH!!!

SPAZM 151 - S/T LP (2001)

 

Straight ahead no BS HC from Dallas, Texas. The album art was done by none other than the late great Randy "Biscuit" Turner of BIG BOYS fame. They close out this record with some decent covers by THE OFFENDERS and JERRY'S KIDS in case you need another reason enough to check it out.

VA - Viva Umkhonto! LP (1987)

 

Benefit compilation for Umkhonto We Sizwe (the military wing of ANC in South Africa) that featured 13 bands from Europe and the USA. I'm a little bummed my copy didn't come with the 20 page booklet.

VATICAN COMMANDOS - Full Discography 1983-2015 CD (2023)

 

As per request. Not exactly a full discography here as it's missing some compilation cuts. Either they forgot about 'em or couldn't get permission, who knows and who cares... amirite? And yes I know Moby was their guitarist at one point, but he only played on tracks 1-6 and 40-42.
