"The Legion Of Parasites were one of the more thrashier sounding 'Anarcho' bands from the Village of Pavenham, Bedforshire. Some of the members had already been in bands since 1978, but the Legion Of Parasites began in 1981 with Cian Houchin (when he was 16) on guitar, Sean Houchin (when he was 17) on vocals, and Simon 'Wag' Wagstaff (when he was 14) on drums (he burrowed his sister's drum set). Early influences included the U.K. Subs, Dead Kennedys, Buzzcocks, The Sex Pistols, and Sham 69. To practice, they used a shed which was located in Wag's garden. After nine months, they were joined on bass by Scott Hick (age 15).
The band wrote their early lyrics about the issues they felt strongly about. However, They quickly realized that the first wave of punk was beginning to sell out, and that the big business men had all these punks on strings for their own profit. This is when the reaction to that came to their attention. Sean managed to get a hold of a copy of Crass's album 'Feeding Of The Five Thousand' and once he heard it, he used to just play it over and over again, even though his parents hated the record and wanted him to throw it away due to it's lyrical content. In addition, a couple of American bands such as Bad Brains, Flipper and Black Flag also began to influence them.
Crass's 'Stations of the Crass' album influenced them the most, and helped spark their political side. The inspiration encouraged the band to record their first seven song demo called 'Another Disaster' (the band picked that name because they felt that is how it began for them) in 1982 which was recorded at Luton's 'Hero Studios'. The cover contained the Argentinean destroyer 'Belgrano' getting destroyed by a British submarine. A second, five song demo was recorded during the Autumn of that same year at 'Rocksnake Studios', in Rushden, North Beds. Less than a hundred cassettes were made, and sold at gigs.
Once spring came during 1983, the four were joined on guitar by Steve 'Gibbo' Gibbs. Afterwards, two tracks from their second demo titled 'Dying World' and 'Death Watch' were taken with consent for the 1983 compilation record titled 'Gonads Here's the Testicles' on Pax Records. Unfortunately, their second guitarist 'Gibbo' left during the Spring of 1984 to take a different musical direction.
The band continued to distribute their demo out to wider audiences, which led to the tracks 'Death Watch' and 'Promises' appearing in the American compilation 'Compulsory Overtime' on 'Diesen Records' and 'Dying World' alongside 'Boredom' appearing on the 'Empty Skulls Volume Two' compilation record for 'Fartblossom Records'. Next, the band met Digby Pearson(founder of Earache Records) who wrote a bit for them in Maximum Rock N' Roll magazine, and organized gigs at Nottingham's Coalville Social Club, where the band played with Antisect and Mau Maus.
Following the gigs with Antisect, the band decided to record another demo, and the gigs just seemed to pour in. After a show supporting Conflict, Colin Jerwood (Conflict's lead singer) suggested that the band should release an E.P. on the 'Fight Back' label. The band returned to Rocksnake and recorded six tracks that would become the 1984 'Undesirable Guests' 12". However, their founding bassist Scott left after this release, this forced their vocalist Cian to sing and play bass for the band. They were down to a three-piece, but Cian was good enough to cover both tasks, so they followed by recording the song 'Sea Of Desecration' for the 'We Don't Want Your Fucking War!' compilation on Fight Back Records, including other bands such as Toxic Waste, Subhumans, Anthrax U.K., Decadent Few, Stalag 17, Lost Cherrees, Admit Your Shit, Instigators, and Liberty.
In the Spring of 1985, the band entered the sixteen-track 'Thatched Cottage' studio in Thurleigh to record all the material for their debut album. However, they had no money to pay for it, so they started their own label called 'Thrash Records' and used it right away to release the album ('Prison Of Life'). More gigs followed, such as gigs with Amebix, more with Antisect, Subhumans, Concrete Sox, Metal Duck, and Chumbawamba. There was also a tour in the Netherlands during 1986, organized by Tony from Dutch punks B.G.K. and another Dutch punk band named God. The band began writing fanzines, and played most of their gigs as benefits for worthy causes such as arrest funds, hunt saboteurs, and anti-vivisection organizations.
The Legion Of Parasites were now at their best, but the changing scene and drug infested audiences caused the band to question themselves if they should really continue to go on. This led to their demise after their last gig, where the members realized that their drive to keep going on had just about run out. They also noticed that the people around them were beginning to take more interest in the techno and rave scenes, so after the split, Sean and Wag went on to form a dub reggae band called 'Franticise' (they felt that the reggae scene had become more threatening than the punk scene by that time) and Cian joined Stevenage's goth rock band 'The Nephilim', followed by another band called 'Saints Of Eden'. Wag ended up in another punk related band called 'Sick On The Bus' until he left in 2004 due to increasing family commitments. Sean eventually dove into the 'drums 'n' bass' scene, and used it to express his anger just as he did before in the Legion Of Parasites. Several more demos and albums were recorded after the first LP, but the band never really seemed to be interested in talking about them." --Edited From "Listen And Understand" Blog 2011

Kobra - Live Nottingham 8-13-83
Another "Virus Squat*" capo a few years from their only release...http://www.mediafire.com/file/gb9essd4qpuqd9c/Kobra_-_Live_8-13-83_Nottingham_UK.zip/file
*One of Italy's earliest and most active punk-hubs.
Masonna - "The Passion Of Rubbers" 2xCassette 1995
"Maso Yamazaki is a Japanese noise musician. He started Masonna in 1987, creating the name by combining the words Maso (Masochist) and Onna (Woman). It is also a pun on Madonna's name. Sometimes it is rendered as an acronym spelling 'Mademoiselle Anne Sanglante Ou Notre Nymphomanie Auréolé', or 'Mystic Another Selection Of Nurses Naked Anthology'. Maso became interested in noise when he heard sounds of destruction on television as a child, but his first exposure to noise as a genre was Hanatarash's debut LP, and 'LSD' by Tokyo's 'Nord' (mistaking it for the Japanese punk band L.S.D.). Two more years would pass before he started to produce and develop his own unique style. He is infamous for wild live performances which usually consist of damaging his equipment, jumping around madly, and sometimes getting injured. He has given entire concerts which lasted only a few seconds."
Embittered - "And You Ask Why" 1991 Demo (With Hi-Res Scans)
Grindy stench and encrusted core from Airstrip One. Despite sharing vinyl splits with Dystopia and Hiatus, the band seems completely forgotten now (not that they ever had a "diehard reissue" sound).

Eu's Arse - 1982 Demo
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."
