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.

Vaurio - Sortoa Ja Vainoa 7" (1983 Unreleased)

When I picked up this record I figured it was just a repress of an already existing 7", how wrong I was! Apparently this record was never released and only a handful of test pressings were floating about the place and was later pressed in 2007 with Propaganda Records and Feral Ward. Vaurio were one of the last punk bands to appear on the contentious Rock-O-Rama label and as such didn't quite receive the recognition they deserved, Finnish Hardcore of course being dominated by the likes of KAAOS, Riistetyt and Appendix. Whilst these bands concentrated predominately on fast and aggressive punk rock, Vaurio added a lot of rock & roll elements and a more upbeat 77 punk sound similar to their Finnish predecessors LAMA.
