CORONER-r.i.p. LP (1987)

1.Intro
2.Reborn Through Hate
3.When Angels Die
4.Intro (Nosferatu)
5.Nosferatu
6.Suicide Command
7.Spiral Dream
8.R.I.P.
9.Coma
10.Fried Alive
11.Intro (Totentanz)
12.Totentanz
13.Outro

This album is a fierce, under appreciated monster Jem for sure. Coroner hailed From Zürich Switzerland, and played speed thrash metal that has a huge Celtic Frost and Kreator influence. The band put out two vicious demos before releasing this, their debut album. I think anyone listening to this, with any understanding of music history could tell you that the writing, and guitar playing is VERY classical influenced as well. Tons of fast paced galloping mixed with the bands tech style makes this one of my favorite thrash metal records of the late 80's. A true metal masterpiece.
I bumped into this record by mistake at a record store on Haight street (Reckless, or Restless,I forget), and bought it because it was used, and very cheap($3.99). I was way into my German stuff at this time, and mistook the band from being German. Another record I'm glad I ran into. I miss those days of record shopping with Zoran, in San Fransisco.

USELESS PIECES OF SHIT-fuck shit up 7"(1987)

1.stupid punk medley
2.fuck shit up
3.junkie punks
4.too much caffeine
5.peace thru uselessness
6.everyones's friend
7.puppycore

U.P.S. were from Tucson Arizona....I met/discovered the music of these guys when I was living on Fell Street in S.F. My buddy/band mate Zoran was always meeting people in weird places, he was a total social butterfly. At any rate Zoran met these guys at a show, or on Haight street, I forget exactly, but he ended up bringing them by to my pad. A few of the people traveling in this two band tour stayed with me for a few nights, the rest stayed I think with Zoran in his slum pit. I forget who the other Arizona band was that was on tour with UPS(Last Option maybe?). The Band ended up staying in S.F. for a few days, or maybe a week. They were totally great hippy type punks who played a twisted, circus like sounding psychedelic thrashcore. It doesn't really sound like anything else out there, its fast as hell, but also weird as a mofo, and snotty as hell.
This is for sure an obscure punk 7" ep, that might not mean much to many punks, but it congers up great memories for me. Enjoy, and comment.

ZOETROPE- a life of crime LP (1987)

1.Detention
2.Seeking asylum
3.Promiscuity
4.NASA
5.Unbridled energy
6.Prohibition
7.Company man
8.Pickpocket
9.Hard to survive

Zoetrope were from Chicago IL, and formed in the late 1970's as a punk rock act('78 I think). They self released a 7"ep in 1980 called "the right way", and went on to play with tons of hardcore bands through the early 80's. By the time this LP came out in the later part of the decade, the band was playing straight up speed metal, with catchyness and tightness. This is my favorite of the two decent LPs the band released. The production is perfect.
It was rare in the 1980s for metal bands to have black members (its still pretty fucking rare), and Zoetrope were one of about 4 bands that I can think of that had a black member.
My buddy Zoran loved this album, and would always be blasting it on his stereo before we'd hit the streets of S.F. on our skateboards. We'd get blasted, then bomb some hills.

BLOODCUM death by a clothes hanger LP (1988)

1.Happily Married
2.Son Of Sam
3.Live To Kill
4.Good Hearted Man
5.Treatment Of Death
6.Death By A Clothes Hanger
7.Belligerent Youth
8.Harassment By Farm Animals
9.First To Die
10.Sike-O-Path!
11.Testing My Doorknob

I admit that I originally bought both Bloodcum records due to them supposedly being the little brothers of Slayer's Jeff Hanneman and Tom Araya. This in fact turned out to be half true, as Tom's Brother John played in Bloodcum. The dude who shared Jeff's last name was just a weird coincidence with no relation. I guess back in the 80's I was also attracted to offensive band names. People are always comparing these guys to the likes of DRI, Cryptic Slaughter, and other crossover bands. I've never gotten that one, the band is pretty much straight up thrash/speed metal. The songs have more of a fast Slayer vibe over anything else (solo's and all). The lyrics are pretty stupid thats for sure, bordering on childish. Who cares though, right? I gave up on lyrics well over a decade ago.
The only bummer about this record is the mastering/mix job, the rest is righteous. Comment if you download please, metalheads are slackers I know.

TYSONDOG-eat the rich 7" (1983)

1.eat the rich
2.dead meat

Tysondog were from the UK, and on this, the bands first release, play some great NWOBHM metal that has proved that they had indeed influenced the likes of Manowar, and Anthrax's fistful of metal. Epic, and melodic is how I would describe this bands true metal sound. The band supposedly named the band after one of the members dogs, Tyson.
Another Neat rec ep that I came to collect when I was young, and when metal was still young. This ep makes me remember when metal was refreshing.

dead meat
Iron maiden calls your bluff, stands in line
To do her stuff, fools believe the lies she
Spun, fly the flags for she’s the one, a
Lying deceiver, but fools believe her, she
Can’t revive dead meat.

Promised favours broke in two, looks your
Way but sees right through, thought her
Different you knew best, shuttered eyes
Just like the rest, there all same, they
Share the blame, they still can’t revive dead
Meat.

Wont be broken stands her ground, wont
Give up the power she’s found, drags a
Nation to its knees, only she knows what
She sees, there all the same, they share
The blame, she still can’t dead meat.

DEVIATED INSTINCT-rock n roll conformity LP (1988)

1.Pearls before swine
2.Laugh in your face
3.Conquest for Eternity
4.House of cards
5.Putrid scum
6.Through the looking glass
7.Time and tide
8.When the chapter closes
9.Return of frost
10.Mechanical extinction
11.Rock`n`roll conformity
12.Doomsday (Discharge)

Deviated Instinct were from England and part of the early crust/punk scene, forming in 1984. The band later went for a more metal sound, although they had some metal vibes even on this release. But during this time period they could be compared to the likes of Amebix,Electro Hippies, Axegrinder, etc. Burley sounding, and bass heavy music is what one can expect on this release. A friend of mine who was from England, and involved in the crust scene back then told me that you couldn't get within 10 feet of these guys, because they stunk from filth so badly. They took their punk politics, and drunkenness beyond normal means.
Dave and Jack at Erl Records in Albany NY turned me onto these guys. I think I bought the guttural breath LP from them before getting this one. Crazy to look back and think that I could walk into a store and buy this used for $5.99 in 1990. These two clowns turned me on to so much heavy music in the early 90s. I bought all my Carcass, Crossed Out, and Man Is The Bastard releases here under their guidance.

ACROPHET-corrupt minds LP (1988)

1.intro to corruption
2.corrupt minds
3.slaves of sin
4.from the depths
5.lifeless image
6.crowd distress
7.crime for living
8.holy spirit
9.living in today
10.ceremonial slaughter
11.warped illusions
12.forgotten faith
13.victims of the holocaust

These speedcore ragers were from mid Western Wisconsin, and formed in around 1984, with Members on this album being no more than 17 years old. Young ins Making great underground music.
This album is almost perfect in my opinion. The production is totally metal, while the songs and vox have a great crossover feel to them. The vocals are shouted or hollered in a hardcore sort of way, but they don't loose the metal vibe. I can't gush over this record enough, its just great. It has elements of the 1st Megadeth LP meets Cryptic Slaughter or something. How can you go wrong with members sporting t shirts from both Minor Threat, and the Grateful Dead on the back cover photo? Ridiculous, right? This is fast, tight, and very memorable.
The artwork to this record is horrifically bad, making it totally great if you get my drift.
Another Erl records score, from when I moved back to Albany in the late 80's. Enjoy, and comment if you download.

10. Gninraw
11. Time to Change
12. Who's the Terrorist
13. Now You're a Big Boy
14. Live Your Own Life
15. Slave

These punk thrashers were from Belgium,and I'm doubting to many people remember them. I originally bought this LP because I thought that that part of Europe was all pretty much the same. Sorry... Yup, thought they were kraut related, and anyone that reads this blog knows that I have a weakness in my heart for Germans, and thrash. The members of this band were between the ages of 16-19 when this LP was recorded, just pups. The band were a straightedge band, though musically or lyrically you couldn't tell. I used to trade letters and got this record from the singer, Bollie. The songs on this obscure and under rated LP are all pretty fast except for the opening first song. The others are all faster than the sound of light. The songs mostly all time in at around 2 mins or more, which is of course long for a hardcore punk band, but works well. The production is raw as hell, and works well with the solos and shit, keeping this from ever feeling metal. Enjoy and comment!

SATANIC MALFUNCTIONS I've Just Had About All I Can Take 7" (1987)

6.Cost Of Freedom
7.Where's Dinner
8.Anthem
9.Appealing Carcasses
10.Family Man
11.Only Stupid People Glamourise America
12.The Take Away Of Life
13.What Happened

Man I love this record cover, it really just looks so cool. A great drawing indeed, that helped to suck me into these UK noisecore thrashers. I heard this around the same time that I discovered Fear Of God, L'arm, etc. Totally noisy "we don't give a shit" hardcore punk. I loved the bands mix of humor and politics in their music. I think the only downside to them was the lack of bottom end, keeping them from sounding as heavy as they probably actually were. The band was a three piece, that included no bass player, just a vocalist, guitarist, and a drummer. Another great record that came out on the Looney Tunes label, way ahead of its time.
My buddy Louis turned me on to this band as well as so much other great Euro/Japanese records from the 80's. Thanks buddy!
no songs are missing, although only 11 show up in the file, the other two go into other songs. enjoy, and comment.

PRIME EVIL-the manifestation demo (1988)

1.Venomous moleculi
2.the manifestation
3.realities complete
4.sin of innocence

More brutal awesomeness from these N.Y. State metal dudes. I posted the bands first demo a few months ago, Its a monster. This second demo still has a heavy Slayer reigning blood influence, with perhaps a hint of Whiplash? Fast metal with an incredible drum sound, and vox with minimal effects, etc. Its Insane to me that these guys never did a proper release. This is an A+, under the radar thrash metal demo for sure. The only bummer is that there are only four songs on it. This was a perfect tape for blasting out of the tape deck of my old 1967 dodge dart, the tape was made for a muscle car.

EXTRA HOT SAUCE -taco of death LP (1988)

1.taco of death
2.aids
3.hairpie
4.paranoid
5.tony's dilemma
6.clueless fucks
7.i need a job
8.caucasian beat
9.extreme hatered
10.communication breakdown
11.hommina hommina hommina
12.lookout for the cheeba man
13.passive terrorism
14.freebird

Ok, all though this is not the greatest record in the world, its still sorta funny none the less. Featuring Danny Lilker from S.O.D., Anthrax, Brutal Truth, Hemlocke, etc. Dude plays drums on this, and I think the only other guy that can play anything is the guitarist. The bassist, and singer were just sorta friends of Danny's whom used to go to a certain taco joint in Queens after hardcore/metal shows in the 1980's. Dudes would get completely high, go eat tacos, and talk about this joke hardcore band they were going to start. Well they did it. End result, not so musically talented, but funny due to all the other crap that was coming out at the time. Lyrics were def written while these dudes were stoned.

ATAVISTIC-equilibrium 7" (1987)

1.half life
2.means to an end
3.perpetual motion
4.timshel

This is one noisy as hell record. Atavistic were a U.K. crustcore band from the 80's who released this great 7", and another thats called "life during wartime". They later put out a LP that I recall being very disappointed in(they started going for a Motorhead vibe). This rare ep came out on Looney Tunes, and has pretty much been forgotten in time. Both their two 7"s rank up there with the crusty greats (Deviated Instinct, Amebix, etc). This shit was a bit harsher then most the other English bands of the era... A serious wall of heavy, brutal & raw noise is the only way to describe these gents. Each song has some echo guitar leads that just shreek with raw power. This stuff is so raw I can see some black metal fans appreciating it.
I got this as an alternate record when I was ordering punk records from blacklist mailorder out of S.F. in the late 80's or early '90. I remember being semi bummed that I got this when I put it on my turntable back then. Guess it was to heavy/metal for me. Play this shit loud, its just noise.

WARFARE Noise filth & fury 7" (1984)

1.burn the kings road
2.the new age of total warfare
3.Noise filth & fury

This three piece were from England and formed in the early 1980's. Some Seriously great metal with a punk influence (short songs, minimal solos, etc). If your a fan of Tank, Venom, or Motorhead then you'll need this. The band shared members with, and had records produced with dudes from the aforementioned bands. This ep came out on Neat, and has guest guitar appearances from Mantis(yeah, wow right? he he he). Old demi gods!
In the early 80's I was buying all the Neat records eps, but I guess I stopped because I just got sick of not enough songs on the records, so I was then buying all LPs. These 7"s got pretty trashed, some I lost the covers for, used the records as ashtrays, etc. Total idiot move, as I've found myself rebuying them now for about 10x the prices I paid for them back in the day ($2.75). Turn it up!

NO FRAUD s/t 7" (1986)

1.failure
2.don't let me grow old
3.thinking of you
4.wastecase
5.intro
6.nothing left inside
7.suicidal maniac
8.its all economic

No Fraud were a wicked fast diy hardcore band from Venice Florida, who played a skate styled punk that had no metal influences at all. I originally bought this record through the mail when I lived in Livermore, and would read MRR reviews, and scoured the pages for ads that caught my eye. I sadly sold the ep in my first purge of selling off parts of my record collection in the early 90's. I have no idea what I was thinking, and have been looking for it for years since then. Recently I was totally stoked to pick this up at the wfmu record fair in nyc, It made my day for sure.
Side two of this ep is amazing, totally blazing hc that reminds me in some ways of early RKL. The song wastecase on side one is great as well, bringing me back to my youth in the 80's. The band did some early demos that are fucking brilliant too. I'll post one of those someday on here as well. This is pretty rare, and came out on No Club records. Enjoy!

21.black doomy theme
22.greed

23.cardiac arrest
24.on the team
PSYCHO
25 meatmarket

I love most of this compilation. I think what I loved more about the comp then the actual music, was the idea of punk bands and metal bands playing on the same record, and being cool with it. The Impulse Manslaughter tracks are totally awesome, the Heaven and hell bust is funny as hell. My favorite tracks by far are the A.M.Q.A. tracks, because the stuff is so fast and catchy. Most people I know hate Sacred Denial, but the vox on this stuff remind me a bit of Gang Green, plus I have a weakness in my heart for NJ crossover shit. The Attitude stuff is live, and sorta is filler. The songs are to long, by this time I was over them moving on beyond Attitude Adjustment. Condemned, and Attitude later merged and became, yup you guessed it... Condemned Attitude.
I think I originally bought a copy of this from Charlie Infections band Psycho when they played a show in Albany with Sheer Terror in around 1989-1990. This came out on Ever Rat, Medusa who also released the Coven LP, and a bunch of other stuff in the late 80's.

NAUSEA-crime against humanity LP (1991)

1.mind dead
2.blind point of discharge
3.system breakdown
4.production ends
5.make more profit
6.enemy alliance
7.dreams and prophecies

This should not be confused with the Crusty NYC punk band. This shit here is fanfuckingtastic molten metal grindcore from L.A.. The band featured the frontman Oscar Garcia of Terrorizer on vox. That being said everyone expects more than anyone can really deliver, as "world downfall" is just one of the greatest grind records of all time. The vox on this one are really the only thing that is similar to terrorizer at all. The songs are much longer, and sometimes slower and heavier. Don't fret though, there are still plenty of blast beats, and even a few crust parts as well. The over all production on this is so bass heavy that it gives the feel of the record a totally doom/gloomy dark feeling. These dudes recorded many demos, and did a few other records. They actually formed in the mid 80's out of the death of a band called Majesty. The song Enemy alliance is actually a old Majesty tune.
I discovered these guys through my love and awe of Terrorizer. The first thing I heard by them was the demo split with terrorizer. Sadly I no longer have that one, it was lost in the purge of '93. Enjoy.

WHITE PIGS s/t 7" (1984)

1.victims
2.dropout
3.new life
4.screamer
5.pigs theme
6.early grave
7.fukFukFuk
8.kill kop

White Pigs were from Connecticut, and played shows, and recorded this awesome raw punk ep in 1984. The band originally formed in 1980 out of the ashes of Zak at the Soda Boys. W.P.'s had many, many line up problems right up until their demise in 1989. The band went from playing aggressive hardcore punk, that at times reminded me of the Abused, or Antidote to thrash metal with double kick drums, and solos. No idea what these dudes were thinking at the time. The metal version of the band released an LP on the combat bootcamp series. This ep came out on Switch Kwilson and is perfect in my opinion. Its been said that only 400 of these exist. I've No Idea, as the band members are still squabbling on mssg boards and web sites. Please leave a comment if you download. Its a positive part of doing this blog, the interaction with people. thanks.

JIM JONES AND THE KOOL-ADE KIDS trust me LP (1986)

1.force of habit
2.numbing process
3.manufactured christ
4.creeping brown deth
5.society for creative pain
6.victim to the prey
7.last grave at dimbaza
8.attack position
9.silenced
10.never enough

I originally heard these guys on an old Maximum Rock n Roll radio show in the 80's. I couldn't believe how brutally metal they sounded, but had a goofy fucking name that still had some social relevance at the time. This was truly punk as fuck metal. The guitars and drums have a total Celtic Frost/Hellhammer sound. I'm not sure these guys were familiar with the bands at that time(though its hard to believe by the sound, that they weren't). If you love Celtic Frost, or even the 1st Sheer Terror LP, you'll kill for this one. More underground music from the great state of Michigan.
I've owned this record three times. Originally selling it in my first purge of record sales in around '93. I think I recently acquired it again through my buddy/ex band mate Jim MacNaughton. I Forgot how great this was. The band had a second LP slated to come out but couldn't find a "deal". Known as The "Contrafusion" demos these songs were even more metal sounding, as the band got a different singer. Don't miss this, or let the band name scare you away. This is a rager. Awesome lyrics that had my mind in the right place 20 years ago. Leave a comment if you remember these guys, or dig this shit.

"never enough"
break from the norm to fight for your rights
no peer pressure no more cliques no more labels
things have changed your ideals are a cover
practice what you preach stupid hypocrites

I go into the show you look me up and down
judge me by your standards as if you were my parents
is my hair to long? should I have a circle A on my back?
will I never score enough points to make your hardcore standard?

I hate war, poverty and death
I thought my values were in the right place
you don't even bother to ask what I think
you got me figured out by just one look
yeah you got me figured out, you know everything
and you'll never take the time to know me
hidden safe within your clique
use your rags to distort images
something meant for benefit used to destroy
we're not going to let your narrow minds hold us back
we'll do it without you!

TOXODETH-mysteries about life and death Tape (1989)

1.intro
2.the beacon
3.phantasm
4.visit of the dead
5.doom predictions
6.graveyard
7.mausoleum
8.seeing to our ages
9.tales from beyond

This is a brutal classic Mexican metal release, that verges on technical death/thrash (what with all of the guitar solos, and guitar god riffing). The recording is totally raw & evil sounding, and sounds as though it was recorded in a dark black cave in one take. The vox border on pre black metal. It's Hard to believe these guys were a 3 piece, and had been around since 1983. This has some elements of Possessed for sure.
The cover art is great, so minimalistic and gloomy looking.
Mexico has always been a place with millions of underground metal supporters, I guess its just rare that you hear of a Mexican band in the USA. Obscure and Classic. Originally I bought a copy of this at ERL Records in Albany NY. Dave and Jack used to call me up when they'd get some metal collections in the store. There was a guy who was an older state worker (like 40 years old, in 1991), he would bring in all this weird metal,and was knowledgeable of it all. He was totally straight looking, but into some brutal gruesome stuff. Jack and Dave would let us smoke and drink in the store... the place was amazing.

DED ENGINE s/t LP (1985)

1.scream
2.kings of the city
3.renegade
4.rabid
5.bloodlust
6.take a hike
7.hotshot
8. young hot
9.reighn of terror
10.'till deaf do us part

These dudes were from Lansing Michigan, and played an American NWOBHM style of heavy metal. Think the 1st Anthrax LP(fistful of metal), Armored Saint, and Manowar and you'll have a pretty good idea of what these bros sounded like. This came out on Pentagram records. I recently got a copy of this from my car mechanic, Derrick who also went to the same high school as me. Derrick played in a band called Militia, but has no interest in metal anymore, he was happy to give me a stack of old metal LPs.
Another record that I was originally turned onto by my high school pal/band mate Pat Janedlo. Looking back at this, this record sounds like it should have come out in 1983, as most metal bands were doing the thrash thing.

TYRRANICIDE-hiding under white demo (1986)

1.hiding under white
2.summoned to die
3.facing reality
4.epilogue
5.cripples revenge

In my opinion this demo blows away the bands LP. The demo is right on par with Sacrilege B.C.'s demo in rawness, and sheer brutality.
Amazing Bay Area thrash metal with catchy as fuck Mosh parts. Some of the riffs even have that Possessed seven churches feel to it. The ending of the title track is one of those songs. It mixes elements of Sacrilege, Possessed, and even some Exodus. This is a down right amazing demo tape. These dudes were from the same suburb as I was living in for a period of my life. They played lots of diy shows in places like my surrogate family's mechanical garage. Seriously an inspirational band for me then, as they were writing social/political songs, playing with punk bands, while still waving the flag of long hairism. Mike, the drummer was crippled, I still don't know how he did it. seriously, listen to this shit, then think about the fact that the drummer couldn't walk without crutches. mind blowing.

COVEN-blessed is the black LP (1987)

1.Blessed Is The Black
2.6669
3.Burn The Cross
4.Out Of The Grave
5.Rock This Church
6.Iron Dick
7.The Monger
8.McDonaldland Massacre
9.Another Life
10.Creature Of Duty (And My Duty Is Death)

These metalheads were from Seattle and formed in around 1985, and put out a number of LPs, this one being the bands debut.
This LP came out on the Ever Rat/Medusa label, and shouldn't be taken to seriously by thrash fanatics. Some of the lyrics could have only been written in the good 'ol 80's. "Iron Dick", is just ridiculous and borderlines on flat out absurd. I think what attracted me to this LP initially were the vocals. They border on over the top at times. On the first song They totally remind of of Paul Baloff's mighty efforts on "bonded by blood".

UNITED destroy metal 7" (1985)

1.sniper
2.united
3.skill

I know I haven't uploaded many 7" eps on here, but I couldn't ignore this one any longer. True Japanese metal greatness just doesn't get any better than this. The band had a slew of other releases, but lets forget those, because this is tops for them, and Japanese metal from this time period. There are many elements of NWOBHM bands such as Tank, and Maiden in this ep. Add some Motorhead, and Gism with the diy punkish production and packaging and you have the perfect true punk & metal record. This came out on Noise Room.
This is another one that my buddy Louis turned me onto, pretty late if I might add. This was released in 1985, and I don't think I heard it until 1989. Louis and I would drive to the Anthrax, and trash American Style records in CT., and he'd always have some obscure new foreign music blaring from his tape deck. Enjoy!

This is a classic for sure. These guys released an amazing 7", a great LP, and a flexi. Influential NYC hardcore, that along with Rorschach, GO!, and Born Against helped to fuel change in how the scene in NYC was viewed by the rest of the world. Before this, NY mainly had a rep for being dumb, and supporting macho, straightedged punk, that was pretty non political, or sometimes even had a slight conservative edge to it. These bands helped to change that and helped created the ABC No Rio scene.
This tape features Ted Leo on vox, and Daryl on drums (he played drums for Born Against at one time as well).
The first time I saw these guys was at Abc no rio, with Born Against. CXA were a steamroller. Daryl approached My friend Louis, Mike J, and myself asking about a L'arm shirt Louis was wearing... Daryl seemed totally cool, and talked to us about Heresy, Fear Of God, Ripcord, and L'arm. It was easy to tell we were from out of town, as Mike Bullshit started yelling at us for pulling out our money on the street, to pay our way into the gig.

4.Motorocker
5.Black Terror
6.Phantom

8.Lucifer

Well, I picked this LP up because of the fact that the song titles looked VERY foreign to me, or Eastern European... and that used to be a rarity for any extreme music. These guys are/were indeed Russian. The cover is pretty sick looking, with the logo that is half swiped from Kreator, and half ripped from Maiden. The music is tooth and chip thrash with lots of solos thrown in. The vocals are almost more of a tough type hardcore style, but match the music appropriately enough.
Unfortunately only one original member remains in this band, and he's some sort of weird nationalist. This is still a great album, and very Obscure.
