Assassin - The Upcoming Terror (1986)

Two posts within an hour. I'm going to burn myself out.

Thrash met-uh-l from Germany. This was their only good album. Not as good as Sodom (few are) but better than Kreator.

Depression - Thrash Till Death (1988)

I haven't posted in months. Not sorry. Summer's over and I don't have anything to do, so who knows, posts might come back with regularity. I doubt it.

Anyway, I really don't know much about this band outside of the standard Last.FM bio. Depression was a hardcore/crossover band from Melbourne, Australia in the 80's. They took influence from Discharge, Disorder, and various other DisBands. Outside of that, I'll always know them as the band that did the sweet Hawkwind cover.

Blitz - Second Empire Justice

So, if you're fairly familiar with late 70's-early 80's punk, you've probably heard of Blitz. They were a popular (among skinheads, generally) punk/oi band from England during that time. In 1982, they released a decent album called Voice of A Generation. It was your standard Oi album, full of singalongs and shit about being warriors. Then, in 1983, they threw a fucking curveball and decided to become a New Order cover band. Even better, they absolutely ruled at it. Shame is that the band eventually disowned the album (which is a very good album) and reverted back to the whole Oi Oi Oi thing (which is alright, just not as good as the new wave thing they had going for them). It doesn't matter much now because they broke up and the guitarist is dead. Shitty.

The "New Order cover band" thing was exaggeration, by the way. They sound almost nothing like them. So don't complain to me that you wasted your precious time downloading something under false pretenses.


Oh yeah, RIP Boner.

Lords of the New Church - Self Titled

Best known for their kinda dumb cover of Madonna's 'Like A Virgin', The Lords of The New Church were a 1980's post-punk supergroup featuring Stiv Bators of The Dead Boys (dudes vocals are more obnoxious than ever on this record) and Brian James of The Damned. They recorded a handful of albums but as the story frequently goes, their debut was best.

Regarding re-ups

It was brought to my attention that nearly all of my mediafire links were taken down. I don't know why, but oh well. I'll probably get around to reupping them tomorrow but don't hold me to that. I'm lazy. Sue me.

Edit : As of 10:50 pm cst on February 22nd, all links are active. If they go down again, I ain't doin' shit.

Razor X Fade - Demo

Most of the people that read this blog (if there really are any) probably don't like hardcore. They especially probably aren't into straight edge hardcore with socially conscious lyrics. I don't care. I'm hyping this band because 1) My good friend is in it, and 2) they deserve to be hyped. Shits good, man.

Mountain of Judgement - Self Titled

Got this from an innanet friend of mine. He described it as "Hawkwind doing a doom album". I'm inclined to agree.

Going to upload something tomorrow.

I swear.
