Teargas US tour and 7" Download

Probably my favorite band out of Australia in recent times ever since I saw them at Such is Life in 2008 I think it was? Anyway, lovely blokes Teargas are touring the States and you will be missing out if you don't go see them. Mixing a healthy dose of Japanese punk similar to Bastard, Deathside, Judgement and a splash of Poison Idea make Teargas a force to be reckoned with. I've also taken the liberty of uploading their fantastic 7" which is now sold out however don't fret, they are releasing a 12" very shortly on Hardcore Victim. Can't wait to hear it! Featuring members of Draft Dodger, Dick Nasty and Insurgents, be prepared for something truly special at Chaos in Tejas!

Invasion - Self Titled 12" (2007)

I nabbed this little obscurity when it first came out not knowing what to expect at all. C'mon, that sleeve cover is fucking amazing. Far be it from me to merely buy a record based on the cover art I gave this one the benefit of the doubt and I'm fucking delighted I did because its definitely an underrated gem. Invasion were a raw punk band from Barcelona Spain who mixed a lot of Discharge with reverbed vocals that remind me a lot of KURO from Japan. Like many punk bands, Invasion had numerous line-up changes that consequently lead to a name change to the now more well known Destino Final. Great band, highly recommended. Both LP's from Invasion are available from No Patience.

Part 1 - Funeral Parade 7" (1982)

Probably the most enigmatic anarcho punk band out of the UK during the 1980's. Part 1 are very much an anomaly alongside their more well known counterparts Rudimentary Peni. Not much is known about this band at all other than whats been documented in Ian Glasper's book "The Day the Country Died, A History of Anarcho punk 1980 - 1984." They happen to share a lot more commonality with bands such as the Apostles and Blood and Roses rather than Crass and Conflict and to their credit could be argued to be one of the first deathrock bands from the UK.

Funeral Parade was Part 1's only 7" (Their only other release was an LP titled Pictures of Pain) and is limited to around two hundred copies. Even Mark Farrelly the guitarist knows of one copy in existence which goes to show just how rare this record is. Featuring a bizarre layout and haunting imagery, this is definitely a record that is worth a listen not only for the brilliant music it contains but also for the legacy it leaves behind.

Depression - Hardcore History (1989)

Formed in Melbourne circa 1982 Depression were potentially one of the first hardcore punk bands from down-under. Incorporating influences from Discharge to Black Flag and beyond, they managed to formulate their own hard hitting in your face sound that made them incredibly popular at home and abroad, so much so one of their most popular songs 'What a strange world' featured on the Maximum Rock&Roll compilation: Welcome to 1984 (Recently reissued!) Depression reformed in 2009 with both Spike and Smeer returning along with members of Smeers Rock&Roll band 'Speed Demons' playing gigs sporadically both locally and interstate.



This record was released as a double LP in 89' and features all of Depressions' early material from their Demo tape until the Australia Australia EP in 85 as well as the self titled LP. After Spike (lead singer) left Depression in 86' they went on with guitarist Smeer taking over vocals and heading in a more thrash metal direction. This releases also features a few songs from that period which I'm assuming were from a demo tape but nonetheless are worthy of merit. Enjoy!

Mellakka - RIP recordings 1984 - 1986

I don't usually upload stuff I don't own but I've made an exception for Mr Ryan Dufous. Here's Mellakka, a hardcore punk band from Finland who drew a lot of influence from their other Finnish comrades KAAOS. Although Mellakka unlike KAAOS didn't have many slow paced melodic songs and instead just played fast paced 1-2 hardcore punk with a bit of Broken Bones guitar solos in there for good measure. The more you listen to Finnish Hardcore you can see these dudes bought one Chaos UK record, listened to it a million times and started a band from it. Fucking Brilliant, nothing I like better!


Mellakka only released two 7 inches in their short three year life span but none the less created some ripping hardcore as a result. The RIP recordings contains the Ei... 7" the Itsenäisyyspäivä 7" and a 3 song demo cassette which offers all their recordings in a nice little package. From what I believe its still easy to obtain this record, definetly invest in it. I'm still hunting the originals.

Bog People - 81' in 09' demo (2009)

Prior to 09' there was very few bands that could realistically embody the true sounds of UK82, the most stand out of these was Germ Attak, but in late 09' a new band emerged from Portland Oregon that turned heads everywhere they went and defied the crust or noise conventions that were in place for most punk bands in the States. I give you Bog People, without a doubt one of the most impressive bands to appear in recent times.

Fueled by Cider and glue these guys (and one girl) managed to only squeeze out a demo tape and a split 7" that was also made on cassette in their rather short life span, which is a pity because they're fucking amazing. Caught somewhere between Lunatic Fringe, Uproar and Chaos UK, Bog People blast out 8 tracks of chaos that literally makes you believe it was recorded for Riot City Records in 82 and is a genuine testament to the genre. Definitely one of my favorites in the past few years, RIP Bog People.

T.S.O.L - First 12" EP (1981)

Right, I've been listening to this all week and I need to throw it up, one of the true underrated classics of American punk. Formed in 1979 in Huntington Beach California, T.S.O.L stands for True Sounds of Liberty, a highly politically charged band well ahead of their time considering the sheer ferocity of their music and of course their influence in the goth quadrant along with fellow punk/goth rockers 45 Grave.

Musically they sound a lot heavier and distorted than the Dead Kennedys and Adolescents and take a less satrical no nonsense approach to their lyrics. Mandatory listening for anyone remotely interested in the early American punk scene, their 12" EP has definetly stood the test of time and is a real testament to punk from the USA unlike the crap that was put out during the mid nineties and onwards by the likes of NOFX, Rancid, The Casualties etc.

T.S.O.L. are still active today with all the original members minus the drummer and still stay true to their name holding the same angry beliefs that were pressed onto this record. Definetly check them out if you haven't already.

Attack SS - No Boss 7" (2009)

Noise Noise Noise! Nice little 7" I picked up for a decent price a few weeks ago, already heard their music before but the record was so good I decided I'd grab it along with the Kriegshog 7". Attack SS turn the guitar noise into overload with highly delayed vocals that remind me a lot of Disorder/Chaos UK in the Short Sharp Shock era, they mix up a bit of d-beat with 1 2 as well which serves as a treat. Recommended 7" and looking forward to hearing more releases from Attack SS!
