The Disturbed + Chaotic Subversion Split Tape

We got a massive dose of Scottish hardcore today. Some good old fashioned angry stuff to get you going. Released sometime in the late 80's it collects demos, practices and even a couple EP's in the mix. The sound quality is low, but the music is great.

The Disturbed/Chaotic Subversion

Civil Dissident - Fourth Rate American Thrash Tape

So, from what I've read Aussie band Civil Dissident had an early release reviewed by MRR. The reviewer referred to it as "Fourth Rate American Thrash". And they chose to run with that. Releasing this tape in 1984. I think the reviewer was having a bad day, because this is some good stuff.

Disobedience When You Want

Peace Corpse - Self-Titled

I always loved this band. Unfortunately there's just not alot of stuff that ever made it to a recording. This cassette comprises their incredible 7", plus extra "iffy quality" live stuff.

Have I Been Saved?

Christ On Parade - Cheap, Deformed, Cassette E.P.

The great Christ On Parade had some great releases during the second half of the 80's. This is on of their earliest releases, from 1985

Chaos Is What We Need

Rednecks In Pain - Sick Semen Demo

One drawback of the cassette release is of course the issue of sound quality. But back in the day we took what we could get. Rednecks In Pain was a short-lived outfit outta Tennessee. They released this tape in 1989. Add a couple decades and the sound quality didn't get any better, but doesn't it take you back?

Quick To Judge

Rebels & Infidels - Young, Gifted & Black Demo

We kick off the weekend with a bit of a rough sounding release. Still haven't learned much about the band, but I believe this was released in '85 and also features a female singer.

Call A Doctor

Zero Boys - The History Of The Zero Boys

For November we're going to once again focus on the easiest and cheapest way bands found to get their music out there - the cassette. This month I'm wishing everyone a Happy Tapesgiving!

And we start the month with a slight carryover, the number zero. Indiana legends the Zero Boys kick off the month. Honestly I'm not sure about the "history of" this tape, but I believe it was a posthumous release in 1984. After their all too brief existence.

What Fun, What Fun, What Fun
