Friction - "Crazy Dream" 7" 1979, Live 10" 1979, Self-Titled LP 1980, "Skin Deep" LP 1982

"Friction is a Japanese garage rock band, originally formed in 1971 as 'Circle Triangle Square' by bassist Reck, saxophonist Chico Hige, and drummer Sakuro Watanabe. They changed the band's name to '3/3' in the mid 70s, and Reck and Chico later moved to the United States where they would form the band 'Teenage Jesus And The Jerks' (with Lydia Lunch and James Chance)."

"Renaming '3/3' to 'Friction', they recruited guitarist Tsunematsu Masatoshi, and then released a live album and single in 1979, and their first studio album in 1980 (produced by Ryuichi Sakamoto). Tsunematsu left the band in December 1980 to become an artist, and from then on Friction has had numerous guest musicians for live and studio releases, all revolving around frontman Reck."

OP GANG BRENGEN WAARSCHUWING:
None of the releases are split into separate folders, though they "should" be in chronological order.

Middle Class Fantasies - Live Berlin 1981 ("Tempelhof Tape" Soundboard)


"Middle Class Fantasies was a German punk band that existed from 1979 to 1982, founded by Christoph, his brother Markus, and included Sören (guitar) and Topsy GI (drums). A demo came to the attention of 'Aggressive Rock Productions', who brought them to Berlin to perform at the legendary venue 'SO36'. The label then released their debut EP 'Tradition' (an early production of Harris Johns*), which was globally well received. The group was getting bigger, but they already felt that the punk scene was fracturing, so they decided to change their style to post-punk and their name to 'Killer Chocolates'. In 1982, a self-titled EP was released, but it flopped. They played to an almost empty hall in Bochum and then dissolved."



*Harris Johns is a European music producer, active in heavy metal and punk since the late 1970s, working for bands such as Tankard, Sodom, Kreator, Ratos De Porão, Slime, and many others.

P.S.: Tape cover track listing is completely fucked up and doesn't reflect actual set list..."punk".

Unseen Terror - Instrumental Rehearsal 8-12-87

When you think you have internet Painite, discover it's been online for years, but end up giving that news a free shrug and just posting it again anyway (I don't even remember where or when I first got this)...

Update from Mitch: "No idea who ripped it, but I still have the original cassette here. It would have come from a trader of mine from back in the day as the quality (like you say) is like first generation."

Gibbed - Demo 1990 (Advance for "Eternal Life" Flexi 1990) And "Samurai" Zine Issues 1 & 2


Japan's first true grindcore band. Though favoring the metallic end of the genre, they still had the particulars nailed down a LOT tighter than predecessors Deathpeed (who were really aimless dark thrash) and S.O.B. (who garishly sold out to play the style...and completely sucked shit at it). Also included is the first two issues of nihonjin zine "Samurai", who helped finance a CD compilation featuring these and other previously published trax from Cacofonia, Anarchus, and Multiplex.

P.S.: Gibbed's name is an Engrish portmanteau of having been hung on a gallows.


(The) S.C.U.M. - "Bouryoku-Chudoku" Flexi 1989, "Chudoku-Kanjya" CD 1991, "Inconstant" Tape 1992

"Japanese hardcore/thrashcore band(s) from Kyushu, formed in 1988 as 'Acid', but later changed their name to 'S.C.U.M.' the same year. Two demos were released in 1988 and 1990. Their singer left the group around 1989, relocating to Tokyo to continue playing as 'The S.C.U.M.' (with different members). The original 'S.C.U.M.' continued with a new lineup. 'The S.C.U.M.' released the "Bouryoku-Chudoku" flexi in 1989, then later moved back to Kyushu, releasing the "Chudoku-Kanjya" CD in 1991. The CD contains a few re-recorded versions of songs that originally appeared on the flexi. The '88 and '90 demos were compiled and released as the 'Inconstant' cassette by King's World Records in 1992." ⭑Siege cover!!!⭑ 


Hitler SS - Split 7" with Tampax 1979 & "Pordenone Guy's" Tape (Year?)

"Italian teenage punk band from Pordenone, active between 1978 and 1979. The first members were Miss Xox on guitar and vocals, and Plastic Girl on drums. They were later joined by Sid Delicious on bass, Paris on guitar, and Johnny Bee Good on keyboards. In 1978, under the name 'Hit SS', they played at 'Sabatok Folle' punk fest in Milan."

"Their activity was short but devastating, and it reached its peak with the release of their split 7" with Tampax. In August of 1979 both Hitler SS and Tampax moved to London, where on Saturday the 1st of September they played the infamous 'Cartoon Concert', under the Aklam bridge (Portobello Road). The group broke up soon after."
