I shoulda upped this with the 2004 demo (https://selfishfew.blogspot.com/2017/02/eus-arse-january-2004-demo.html), but.........YEAH!
"Europe's Ass were a hardcore punk band from Udine, Italy. Together with 'Upset Noise' they were among the most important groups of the 'Friuli Venezia Giulia' scene. Formed in 1981, the first 'real' line-up was 'Killy', 'Stinky', 'Stiv' and 'Totis'.
In 1982 they participated in the 'Spring Offensive' festival at the Virus social center in Milan, and very soon after published their debut EP titled 'Does the state need you? Well, fuck it.' This 7" was recorded in the studios of 'No Submission' and supported by the fanzine 'Nuova Fahrenheit'.
In 1983 they self-released a new production, a split EP with 'Impact' titled 'This Is Their Speculation Of Death'. The record spread quickly, even all the way to Maximumrocknroll, where Tim Yohannan described their side as 'breakneck DISCHARGE-like repetitive riffs with unlikely-sounding vocals that suggest a poet gone berserk.'
After a long tour and numerous line-up changes, Eu's Arse finally dissolved in 1985."
