Never - Demo 1993 @ 320 (Eyehategod & 13 Side Project)
"The deal was I wrote a song and Jimmy wrote a song and then we all met up and jammed and recorded it at a studio in Brooklyn. It was all this last minute thing we did off the cuff while they were in town staying with us. I think deluded might have been the one I wrote cause I remember playing it later on in 13. So the Never stuff was never released officially but we always discussed putting it out at some point."

"'Terrifying Madman' is a Japanese hardcore, noisecore, and experimental-metal group with infamous wrestler Crazy SKB as a member. When they formed, Crazy SKB was in charge of the bass, but then he switched to vocals. He is now the sole member. They were active in force in the 1980s, but in the 1990s side bands 'High Technology Suicide' and 'QP-Crazy' became the center of activity. August 9th 2013 was their first live show in 13 years."
"Crazy SKB (Born: August 23rd 1968) is a Japanese musician and professional wrestler. His real name is private. Animal agitator in vocals, he is also a noise guitarist. He sponsors the dark wrestling organization '666'. Two of his signature wrestling moves are 'Devil's Fire' (flame radiation) and 'Firecracker Pore' (a technique of wearing a coat wrapped with firecrackers, lighting them, and rushing to the opponent). In October 2016 he announced the suspension of activities for medical treatment of illness."
Cardiacs - "Toy World" Cassette Album 1981
"Toy World is the second album released by Cardiacs (the first was under the name 'Cardiac Arrest'). The cassette is a mixture of older songs by the earlier 'Cardiac Arrest' lineup and newer songs by the then-current Cardiacs lineup. The tracks were recorded under very low budget circumstances - one member later recalled 'Every time the door bell went or the phone rang, it would put a massive crackle on the tapes.' Toy World was only available on cassettes sold at the band's concerts, and is consequently one of the rarest Cardiacs releases."
"Cardiacs are an English rock band formed in 1977, originally as 'Cardiac Arrest'. Noted for their complex, varied, and intense compositional style, balancing the attack and 'raw energy' of punk rock with the intricacies and technical cleverness of early British progressive rock. The band also incorporates elements of other musical forms such as ska, mediaeval music, folk music, heavy metal, hymns and corporate anthems."

Radiocaset - "Spain's Early Noisegrind History" (1990-1995) Digital Comp 2007
"Examines the years 1990 through 1995 in Spain's noisecore & grindnoise scene. Almost all of the bands used to record their stuff with a minimum of resources, and tape-recorders (in Spanish 'grabadora' or 'radiocaset') were the main tool to capture the audio of their rehearsals, gigs, and official sessions. Only a few of them used mixers or trackers, but the spirit of DIY as well as the improvisation method is present on all of these recordings. Some bands on this compilation are not noisecore or noisegrind exactly, but also industrial and experimental projects with common members from the noise bands. This compilation archives almost 100 acts in all of these styles."

OHM: The Early Gurus Of Electronic Music 1948-1980 3xCD 2000
"Leaps in technology, oscillators, generators, vacuum tubes, amplifiers, transistors, magnetic tape, integrated circuits, and the microchip inspired new instruments: the Telharmonium, Theremin, Ondes Martenot, Clavivox, Electronium, Moog synthesizer, and artists everywhere hungry for new modes of expression. This collection is a humble but bold attempt to give form to the wonderful, multi-directional, inevitable birth of electronic music. Many of the Ideas in this collection have now been so completely assimilated into popular listening that it may sometimes be hard to remember how surprising it all was on first outing. Some of it still sounds pretty exotic. These CDs are important as part of the story of how we got to where we are now - the cultural conversation so far - and as a still fruitful repertoire of future possibilities."
Lip Cream VS Gauze - "Live '86 Disinfection Gig" (Unofficial, Unreleased)
"Lip Cream was formed in 1984, and dissolved on September 24, 1990. Members were Jha Jha (vocals) ex Dead Cops, Naoki (guitar) and Minoru (bass) ex The Comes, Pill (drums) ex G-Zet. Lip Cream was greatly influenced by American hardcore, 70's punk, and hard rock. The unique sound and fashion received tremendous support in the scene at the time, many followers were born."
"Gauze formed in September 1981 and aimed for the UK hardcore style (ex members include Tam and Zazi). Musical activities centered on live performances instead of recording. In the mid 1980s they were introduced to the punk scene abroad through Maximum Rock n' Roll. The number of official albums is five, which is less than that of a career spanning more than 30 years, but all have been long sellers."

Kaaos & Terveet Kadet - "So Much Fun" Split LP 1984
GOD-EMPEROR OF SPLITS!!!
"Healthy Hands was Finland's first hardcore punk band. They achieved cult popularity in punk circles around the world. Sepultura musician Max Cavalera has said that they are still one of his favorites. They originated in Tornio in 1979, when Läjä Äijälä got the idea to form a band which would be influenced by the English group Discharge. By January 1980 they became an ensemble with Läjä singing, drummer Peedro, bassist Markus, and guitarist and principal composer Timo. Later that year, the band recorded and released their first EP on the IKBAL label founded by Läjä. The EP included three songs, each about 30 seconds long, and was released as a one-sided 7" in 200 copies. In 1981, the band's second EP was released, continuing the genre of the previous one. It was also printed in 200 copies and was again a one-sided 7".
In 1982 they signed a record deal with Poko and released the EP 'Infinite Christmas'. In the same year they gained visibility abroad with the collection 'Propaganda I - Russia Bombs Finland'. In 1983 they signed to Propaganda and underwent their first crew change when drummer Peedro resigned and was replaced by Walde, who had time to record on the self-titled MLP (released in West Germany as 'Halloween') and the 'Black God' LP released in West Germany and Brazil. He died by accident in 1984, so Läjä's little brother Tilli was appointed as the new drummer. Also in 1983, 'P. Production' released a compilation 7" which was the band's first two 1/2 EPs. In 1984, the split album with Chaos 'So Much Fun' was released in West Germany. They signed to Barabbas and recorded the album 'The Horse', which continued the old hardcore style, although the lyrics of the album were in English. The crew changed again in 1986 when original guitarist Timo left. He was replaced by Yrjänä and the EPs 'Oma Koloni' (1988) and 'Anno Domini' (1989) appeared. In 1989 original bassist Piäsky also left. They first disbanded completely in 1990, with Läjä assembling a new line-us just a few years later, and continuing the group in some fashion to this very day."
"Chaos was a hardcore punk band from Tampere. Formed in March 1980, they were one of the first hardcore bands in Finland to release a record (the first being Rattus). Only guitarist Jakke (who later became vocalist) remained as the original member throughout the years. Jakke started out as a guitar player in a band called 'Porttikielto' in 1978. They played a gig or two at the early Tampere punk club 'Safety Pins', which was the place where better known groups such as Eppu Normaali, Sensuuri, and Karanteeni got their start. Older punks from the band 'Nivelreuma' asked him to join a new project called 'Amiraali Nelson'. This band went on to record one song on a compilation album called 'Kolme Vuotta Myöhemmin' in 1980. Jakke threw out some of the members and renamed the band Kaaos ('Chaos'). The shift was to make sure that no new wave influences would be allowed. The group started to play faster and more chaotic and adopted the studded leather jacket, spikey haired, and mohawked image. This was unheard of in the Finnish scene at that time, as it was in the midst of evolving into new wave and corporate rock. This harsher sound and look was just not something anybody expected or wanted.
In the fall of 1981 they recorded a split 7" with Cadgers (who later evolved into Riistetyt). After many line up changes they released 'Totaalinen Kaaos' EP which is considered to be their finest release and one of the most definitive records of the '82-style of Finnish punk. At this point Kaaos also came to be known outside Finland, mostly because of tape trading and for the fact that their releases had decent distribution abroad. In 1984 they released their only full-length album 'Ristiinnaulittu Kaaos' ('The Crucified Chaos') and a split LP with Terveet Kädet. They also recorded their 'last' EP, Nukke ('The Doll'), which was released eight years later. In November 1999 Kaaos played a show in Lepakko, a former squat in Helsinki where they and many other legendary bands had shared the stage in the early eighties. The gig was the very last before the building was demolished. Even though the band shared the stage with such contemporaries as Riistetyt, Appendix, and Terveet Kädet, the original line up did not play well and was considered a novelty act at best and a disgrace by those who saw them [Jakke was beyond shitfaced according to Felix Havoc. --S] . Despite all this, the gig was a starting point of a revival of many old school Finnish hardcore bands. The last gig they ever played was at the release party of the book 'Parasta Lapsille' in October 2007. Jakke died in his sleep a little over a month later."

Scientist - "Rids The World Of The Evil Curse Of The Vampires" LP 1981 (CD Version 320)
"Hopeton Overton Brown (born 18 April 1960) is a recording engineer and producer who rose to fame mixing dub music in the 1980s. A protégé of King Tubby, his contemporaries include several figures who had helped pioneer the genre in the 1970s: Ruddock, Bunny Lee, Philip Smart, Pat Kelly, and Prince Jammy. He was introduced to electronics by his father, who worked as a television and radio repair technician. He began building his own amplifiers, purchasing transformers for them manufactured at King Tubby's studio. He was eventually taken on as Tubby's assistant, first winding coils for transformers, then as a mixer. His name originates from a comment by Tubby on Hopeton's technical proficiency: 'Damn, this little boy must be a scientist.'"
MXM - "Flesh-Biting Paedophile" Cassette 1995 (Macronympha And Monde Bruits)
"Macronympha is an American noise and power electronics group formed in 1990 by Joseph Roemer and Rodger Stella in Pittsburgh, PA. Their trademark sound is the collage of metal-junk bashed against each other, looped and layered with mostly analogue equipment. They have collaborated with many big names from the noise scene, including K2, Government Alpha and The Grey Wolves."
"Shohei Iwasaki (1962-2005), better known by his stage name 'Monde Bruits' (French for 'Noise World'), was one of the earliest within the Japanese noise scene, both as a supporter and eventual artist. It was Iwasaki who organized Merzbow's first show in Osaka. He was also involved in 'MXM' (with Macronympha), and 'Sian' (with Aube) amongst other projects. He died in a motorcycle accident in 2005."
Septic Death - "Theme From Ozobozo" CD 1992 (FLAC)
Interview by Martin Purr And Markus Staiger (future founder of Nuclear Blast) 1987...
One doesn’t need to spend a lot of words on ‘Septic Death’. Every kid knows that this is the band of the well-known ‘Pushead’. But what was new to me, was the fact that ‘Septic Death’ is - in principle - a studio-band, which has done very few live gigs so far, but however already has some vinyl on the market and also appeared on several compilations. Currently, their new LP is being recorded, which according to Paul (in his capacity of drummer for ‘Septic Death’ and ‘Attitude’) shouldn’t be quite as extreme anymore. Since at the time of this interview the band consisted of only 3 people: ‘Pushead’ (vocals), ‘Onj’ (guitar) and Paul, to be precise Onj also had to take care of the bass parts for the new LP. Overall, there was plenty to talk about and because Paul was already present during the ‘Attitude’ interview, we took the opportunity to learn a bit about the almost ominous ‘Pushead’...
Martin: Paul, you told us that ‘Septic Death’ is more or less a studio band. Will there someday be a ‘proper’ band ‘Septic Death’ that does live shows, perhaps even will be touring Europe? There’s a lot of people in Europe that like ‘S.D.’.
Markus: Yes, we totally didn’t known that things are the way Andy told us, that you hardly practice, have made virtually no gigs and stuff. In Germany almost nobody knows about that.
Paul: Well, the last time we played was probably a year ago at The Farm (venue in San Francisco).
Markus: And why?
Martin: You’re not interested in playing live?
Andy: It’s up to Pushead.
Paul: I’d love to play, but Pushead …
Martin: Is he ‘too busy’ or ‘too lazy’? (Laughter)
Paul: No, he has too much to do.
Andy: He doesn’t want to damage his voice. (Laughter). Yes: he said his throat was always aching.
Martin: What’s this with his voice? Does he want to join the opera?
Paul: (Laughs) No.
Andy: That’s why Paul plays with us now: because he just loves to play and also because it’s not that great for him if he never gets to play.
Martin: And what about the other members of ‘Septic Death’?
Paul: At the moment we don’t have a bassist, the guitarist also would love to play live.
Markus: And who plays the bass parts on the new LP?
Paul: The guitarist also does that. We first recorded guitar and drums, and then mixed the bass into it.
Markus: And the sound will be better than the other records?
Andy: Yes, it sounds really good.
Markus: It’s funny. The live 10” is not available anymore, almost everyone wants it, although the sound…
Paul: Horrible!!
Andy: Paul, don’t you think that the new stuff is slower?
Paul: Yes, a little.
Markus: Stuff that isn’t as fast as Terrorain?
Paul: No, not that fast anymore. Nevertheless: the record is still fast.
Markus: Well anyway, on the record some things were perhaps a little too fast…OK, Paul, tell us a bit why it took so long to record the new LP. It’s been almost a year since I saw an ad of Bunker Recs in MRR, that said: “Coming soon: ‘Septic Death’ - Strings Of A Toy”.
Paul: Well, the music has already been recorded for ages. But because Pushead writes all lyrics, we had to get back in the studio, etc. Then we recently decided to record even more songs, to extend the play-time of the disc. It’ll probably take a little bit longer.
Markus: So will the record be released in a month or two?
Paul: Yes, in two to three months, hopefully!
Markus: Why has the bassist left the band?
Paul: He’s going to college now, so he hasn’t got time to play in the band anymore.
Markus: Which band do you actually prefer playing for, ‘Attitude’ or ‘Septic Death’?
Paul: ‘Septic Death’!
Markus: Why?
Paul: Well, I don’t know. I’m playing so long in this band, I’m just so used to. I like playing the drums because I like to play fast. Slow things are boring after a while.
Markus: Doesn’t that cause problems within ‘Attitude’? Andy has said that he prefers slower bits.
Paul: Yes, that’s true.
Markus: Why have you put out the 10” on DeLuxe and not on Pusmort?
Paul: At the time the guy from DeLuxe had released a few live 10”s, e.g. ‘Gang Green’, and we didn’t have any good recordings and therefore wouldn’t do it ourselves.
Markus: Would it not have been better to wait until you had better tapes?
Paul: Well, the guy from DeLuxe didn’t wanna wait. He wanted to do it right away.
Martin: Since you hardly did any gigs, you probably also hardly made any new material?
Paul: Yes, that’s right again.
Markus: But I think that the 1,000 that you have pressed, were sold out in a short time.
Paul: Yes.
Markus: Do you think that one day it will be possible to experience ‘Septic Death’ live in Germany?
Paul: Maybe one day, I don’t know.
Martin: Perhaps you’ll open for ‘Attitude’ then or perhaps the other way around.
Paul: Possibly. If I had my way, we’ld be playing in Europe, but I am just one person in the band.
Rick: Yes, you’re just an individual, but you’re not Pushead. (Laughter)
Markus: What kind of things do you listen to, probably fast Hardcore?
Paul: I can’t think of any specific band immediately, in general I listen to fast stuff.
Markus: Do you listen to other things then hardcore?
Paul: I also listen to other bands, such as ‘Sisters Of Mercy’ and stuff like that.
Markus: Who got the idea to name your band ‘Septic Death’?
Paul: Pushead did.
Markus: Do you think it’s possible that the band dissolves, since you’re hardly rehearsing, have got no time, etc.
Paul: Maybe.
Martin: Is Pushead really the absolute boss with you guys, or couldn’t you persuade him to rehearse more often and to do a ‘real’ ‘Septic Death’ band?
Paul: I’ve often told him that I want to play live and our guitarist says that. But I think that it’s hardly possible to try it without him.
Martin: So he currently prefers being a businessman?
Paul: Yes, that’s how it looks like. He just doesn’t earn any money by practicing with the the band. (Laughter) This will be printed in German, no? (Laughter)
Martin: I don’t think he’ll understand.
Andy: I’ll translate it for him, with Rick’s help.
Markus: Something else about Pushead. Does he just release records or has he got another job?
Paul: He works for Thrasher zine one or two days a week. He gets money for the articles that he writes, and for the artwork.
Markus: Did you know that a lot of people from Germany have written to him, but that he has not responded?
Paul: In the beginning, he wrote back to everyone that he received a letter from, but now he gets a minimum of thirty letters daily and it’s impossible for him to respond to all.
Martin: He has written record-reviews for MRR sometimes too; doesn’t he do that anymore?
Paul: No, he quit that.
Martin: OK, Paul, final words regarding the record and on the future of ‘Septic Death’?
Paul: Hopefully the record will be out soon, we’re gonna take the time to record a few new songs. It will be pretty good and…
Markus: Was first one side of the LP recorded?
Paul: I don’t know exactly but we still have to work on it for a bit. 10 songs are recorded so far and we will record another 5 more.
Martin: So it will be a 15 song LP?
Paul: I don’t know if we’ll put all the tracks on the LP.
Markus: The cover will probably be done by Pushead again?
Paul: Yes, but I don’t believe that he’s already finished it.
Martin: And what does the future look like for ‘Septic Death’, rather uncertain?
Paul: Unknown, no idea.
Andy: That’s why Paul plays with us now: because he just loves to play and also because it’s not that great for him if he never gets to play.
Martin: And what about the other members of ‘Septic Death’?
