V/A - Rapsodie En France Vol. 1

In light of recent events I think this fitting. We end the month in France. So, I was never very familiar with French hardcore. No particular reason, just hadn't been exposed to much of it. That's too bad because, as this sampler will attest, there was some chaos going on in France! From 1985, 7 bands including Bloody Fuckers, Heimat-Los and the insane Rapt.

And finally, as the saying goes: "STOP KILLING PEOPLE YOU FUCKING TWATS!"
