Condemned?-humanoid or biomechanoid? LP(1986)

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

I'm not really sure how many of you guys that read my blog and listen to this stuff will actually get this recording. listening back to this three man band project, its really sorta prog-core, and If I hadn't bought it when it came out, I might be sorta turned off to it. I'm not sure... I know i still love it, and it makes me feel good to re listen to it. It really has a Christ on Parade, early Neurosis vibe to it.
The story goes that when Condemned To Death broke up, Keith the bassist moved to Australia to play in Death Sentence. He later did this project with two members of Australia's Vicious Circle. I would swear that more than one of the songs on this ended up being used musically as songs in Condemned Attitude (you guessed it, members of Attitude Adjustment and C2D).
I bought my copy of this LP at Reckless records on Haight Street in SF around 1986 or 1987, its on green wax.

  2. hi i'm very happy because i found your blog, i was looking for the disc of omen (battle cry) and i saw your blog, then i started to see all your music and i got so surprised because there aren't very much web sites to find the true metal, let me tell you i love the old school, so a few discs you show i already have them, but a lot i don't have them, and there are some gruops that i know but it's imposible to get them and i downloaded from your blog. i download them and then i try to get the original copy, but in mexico it's almost impossible to get them, but nowadays we the mexican guys are asking for the old bands and it seems that those original copies are been remasterized, but not all of them, for example the disc of dark angel-we have arrived, it's very hard to get it, so, as i told you i download the music althout i don't like at all to have this fantastic music in data files, i wonder if is possible to contact you by msn, i'ld be very glad to get in touch with you, i hope you read this message. my e-mail is mguelondo_@hotmail.com, that's all by the moment and sorry for my bad english ja. trash 'till death.

  10. WOW, I have been looking for this for ages, I used to own it back in the day. Such a cool LP, did it come out on Nuclear Blast as well as Reactor? The funny thing was today I was listening to "Warkrime" and the track Give war a chance and no shit the middle riff is a complete rip off of one of the songs of this record (the title eludes me but it goes something like.. yes greeds the greeds the one, why believe in actionman? Fucking cool blog!!

  13. Thanks heaps for posting this classic album, and i agree if you didn't get this when it came out you probably wouldn't get into it now... maybe.
    big cheers for posting it though, a real classic album that is so overlooked.

  15. Jbm, are you there?

    I have a very used tape from Attitude, from an old radio show I think, and they start with Big Time Game Hunting,a great Condemned song, but listening to it with Andy Andersen vocals it's just bigger. I also have the Kein Schlaf Bis Deutschland from Attitude, they play When Worlds Collide there. Crutch appears on an Attitude demo tape. I really enjoy AttitudeAdjustment,Condemned Attitude or simply Attitude, with Andy on vocals. And I think if you're familiar with the Attitude music, this record will be really important in your collection.
