p.e.a.c.e compilation 2xlp international 1984



honestly, here we have one of the best punk slash hardcore comps ever done. of course not every song on here is a doosie, but theres wheens of songs and there is classics by the thousands (10s). the likes of d.r.i, butthole surfers, porno patrol, d.o.a, reagan youth, upright citizens, wretched, septic death and the dead kennedys are just a few of the dream team here i can think off the top of my head......the doers of this here comp really took their job serious and really looked round the world for the best bands and tunes they could get a hold of at this time. unlike others of this genre, i.e bullshit detector 1,2 and motherfucking 3. unlike the bullshit detector, where quantity was way before quality. this comp is the quality of the world scene in 1984. the recording of the d.r.i song 'snap' on here is pure class. probably one of the best songs they ever did........ive went on about shite like this before, but why oh why oh why do we not have bands like this any more, or even compilations like this?? im sure theres bands, but who fucking cares..theyre just AINT no-one doing comps like this and there AINT bands to fill it with this kind of astute political atitude. i know times have changed, but its fucking worse now for gods sake and the people (the kids?!) need taught about what the fuck is going on. the internet dont cut it, cause theres just too much bullshit on it too to sidetrack people. all fanzines seem to be on line as well. so who the fuck is telling people what is right and what is wrong? no-one god-damit.!!! you have to go back in time to things like this to tell us what is bullshit and what isnt. you all might shout back and say this kinda stuff is available and there is bands and comps and there is great political movements and speakers. but i sure as hell dont see it, and i assure you i look. i work in the music industry, not that often but occasionally i work at punk/hardcore/straight edge/anarcho shows and i go out to the stalls and distros and buy up what is available. and theres nothing, fucking nothing. so dont tell me im talking shite, cause i know this as a fact. people just dont give a flying fuck anymore and the world is 22 inches up its own arsehole. what we need is a huge political punk scene again. fuck poverty, fuck the nazis and most of all fuck the bullshit. peace..!!

the bastards - s.t 7 inch geneva switzerland 1979



although its a rather odd name for a band, or rather good to be honest. there has been loads of bands called the bastards, bastard or blah blah blöah and the bastards. even that prize clowen lars fredrikscunt from ranclit has a band of this name now. or is he in a band called 'the football hooligans' or something equally as ridiculous as that. getting of the track a bit, but ill continue. once, years ago 1990 or 91 or 92. we all went to a town in scotland called gourock, to see the uk subs play. glasgow band ex-cathedra were supporting them. and low and behold there was a chubby cunt wae long black (shoulder length) hair. if i remember correctly, no tattoos as well. he had a jacket on, so im sure im as wrong as a dong on a hair piece. my sister and i started to ridicule him a little, cause he was in the uk subs i believe the reason. im sure he didnt take it very well as i remember my sisters mad high pitched voice telling him to '' shut up, no way, ya dick.'' or maybe he was pulling a rudi petrudie on her. who knows. years later, i rememberd this and it turned out to be lars fredrikson. funny thing is wae this dan. im sure he was a clean cut well looked after punk kinda guy. washed hair. tight jeans. big white converse basketball shoes. cross between megadeth and sloppy seconds look to him. now hes got all these tattoos on his face and a few of them are made to look like hes had them for years. even one that looks like a ''skins'' or ''punks'' ink job on his forehead all inked out. looking like someone that got it when they were 13 and got it done over when they was 35, with the same needle their boyfriend used the first time. my god strike me down, but im as sure as shite he didnt have any of that when i bumped into him. who cares??? not me. its just fucking silly. and thank you lars, for making punk a laughing stock. fancy dress, halloween mother fucker. dont get me started on that 'the football hooligans'. the man needs his head slapped. anyways.........back to the now....and its 1979 switzerland were at. genevas very own 'the bastards'. they aint up to much to be honest. i mean theyre ok. a bit light weight and thrown together with not much thought. this usually means a good time, but as i say theyre ok and theyve even got a full length lp out now. recorded in 1979, of course. none of that new nonsense. the thing about this record is the song 'impossibilities'. fucking magic it is. catchy as a catchy thing. the female vocals on this one make it i think. theres a wee groove change during the chorus leading into the next verse with her voice going up and up. magic stuff. if the boy was doing it it would have sounded shite, but it doesnt and there you have it. im not big on the swiss 70s punk scene. this and 'jack and the rippers' are the only two bands ive listened to quite a bit, and theyre the same, ok. i hear 't.n.t' and 'nasal' are to be listened to as well. ok?!? chocolate, cuckoo clocks, heidi and the bastards. now that would be one strangely cool picnic. pieces n chocolate ya bass. indigo young team..!!
