OUT WITH A BANG! - I'm Against It EP (2005)

 

Stupid snotty hardcore from Italy that I found for $2. Their singer calls himself Anus, so that should tell you everything you need to know right there. They released two more 7"s but this is their best one.

GOD'S WILL - This Is God's Will EP (2012)

 

Norfolk hardcore featuring ex-members of Front Line. These songs were recorded in the same session as their 1984 EP "Hey! You're On My Property Now, Son". I don't know why they didn't just release the entire recording as an LP since that 7" is long out of print.

DESECRATION - Who's In Control? EP (1988)


Blazing hot hardcore from Arizona. Originally released in '86 as 12" with a different cover, this is ripped from the 1988 German 7" pressing that included a bonus live flexi.

THE RESISTANCE - Raw Deal EP (1987)

Bought this Victoria band's 7" because I recognized them off the "ALL YOUR EARS CAN HEAR" comp. A year before it's release they completed a 6 week cross-country tour to Halifax and back, which was impressive at the time for a band that didn't have a record out. In '87 they were supposed to do another Canadian tour with AGNOSTIC FRONT but Stigma and company couldn't get across the border so they decided to try to do it on their own. The band got as far as Regina before bad luck forced them back home where they split up shortly after.
