Exploited - Let's Start A War... Said Maggie One Day

The Exploited beat us over the head with this one in 1983. It's still one of my favorite from them. A powerful release.

Who Is Right And Who Is Wrong

White Flag - Third Strike

White Flag originally formed in 1982 and have always done things a little differently. Their '82 release, S Is For Space was a "3 sided" L.P. This one, from 1984, has a cover that can be a front cover no matter how you turn it. Even inside-out. Their songs often spoke against common punk themes. Songs actually defending cops, praising the good things about America, and even railing against the silly things about the "hardcore culture". And their music was pretty damn good too.

The F.U.'s - Do We Really Want To Hurt You?

Boston legends the F.U.'s first two releases were both insanely great hardcore records. Rippin' fast and snotty. In 1986 most of the members became the Straw Dogs and had a slower, heavier sound. However, in 1984 they released this L.P., which kind of bridges the gap between the two. Heavier than Kill For Christ or My America, but more "hardcore" than the Straw Dogs. I think it's a fantastic release.

Necros - Self-Titled

This Necros full length debut is an absolute classic. What a great LP. Full on raw energy. Originally released in 1983.

It's A Futile Search For Fame

Flipper - Sex Bomb Baby

Today we have Frisco's Flipper in all their bizarre beauty. Sex Bomb Baby was released in 1987 and is a collection of singles and compilation tracks. And a good collection at that.

Butthole Surfers - Locust Abortion Technician

You know 'em, you love 'em, ladies and gentlemen... The Butthole Surfers!

Pardon Me, I'm Only Bleeding

Anarchy 6 - Hardcore Lives!

Anarchy 6 was the result when the McDonald brothers from Redd Kross got together with two guys from Sin 34 and decided to have some fun. They formed the hardcore parody band and released this L.P. in 1988. They also released a live cassette in 1990. All the punk stereotypes are taken to the extreme here, as well as rips on alot of notable 'punk' quotes. Good, fun stuff
