Neighborhood Watch - Self-Titled E.P.


Neighborhood Watch out of Venice, California played rough and unpolished hardcore. Great stuff. They were active for a short time in the early 80's. I believe this was their only release, from 1983.

Bad Religion - Self-Titled 7"

Here's another band that's hung in there since the early days, although their sound has evolved quite a bit over the years. Their lyrics have always been intelligent however on the earlier releases you don't need a dictionary to read along.This is their first release from 1981.

Tales Of Terror - Self-Titled

Tales Of Terror was a sloppy skate punk band from Sacramento. They existed between 1982 and 1986 but unfortunately only released this LP, in 1984. Good, mostly humorous stuff. It also includes a great cover of 'Hound Dog'.

NOFX - Self-Titled 7"

NOFX has been going strong since 1983. And honestly, outside of the obvious improvement in musicianship, there's not much of a difference between between this record, their debut 7" from 1985 and their latest release in 2010. And that's a good thing!

Bad Brains - Self-Titled ROIR Cassette

Here is the power and glory of the Bad Brains. Released in 1982 as a ROIR cassette, it is a fantastic display of why the Bad Brains were one of the greatest bands of all time. Ripping fast tunes like 'Attitude' and 'Pay To Cum' combined with the reggae beat of 'I Love I Jah' and the full on heavy sound of 'The Big Takeover' make this an absolute, top of the line classic.
