I got this from the drummer of T.H.C. (Thrashing Hectic Circle) in Livermore CA. at a show in around 1987.
Papsmear were one of those metal bands that when you mentioned their name, girls went,,,ewww!
They were from Las Vegas and played some pretty awesome speed/thrash metal that had some great hardcore influences. I'd compare them to Sacrilege B.C.
The band never had a proper release, but only three demo tapes. Its a shame, because they were great. This demo is only about 10 mins long, but well worth having.
