Fetid Finnish fuck of death. Vaguely simpler, but more nihilistic than Nihilist...
Hellsaw (Pre Agathocles) - "Exorcism Shall Fail" Demo 1986
Bill Steer H-A-T-E-D this tape. There's actually 2 more demos (with covers) entombed underneath my physical collection, and even though they're "better recorded" than this one, Jan refuses to re-release any of them...and you'll soon hear why...
Mainliner '96-'97 320 (Troop Tape, Kamikaze Tape, Psychedelic Atmosphere Beatnik Tape, Mellow Out CD, Psychedelic Polyhedron CD, Sonic CD, La Musica Tapes Volumes 1 & 2)
"Mainliner are a noise-rock [Noisier than Stupid Life!!! --S] band from Tokyo, Japan. The group was formed in 1995 by guitarist Kawabata Makoto of Acid Mothers Temple, and bassist Asahito Nanjo, with the intention of creating a new form of psychedelic music. They released four studio albums before the members went on hiatus to pursue other musical interests. Since then, they have reformed twice to record and release new material."
Hellhouse - Demo 1986 / "Burn For Peace" 7"
Some people say Gordy Mayhem (NYC) was behind this black-grind drum machine project...but it also sounds hella like Necrobutcher. Compared to my trade-tape, this is one of the best sounding shit-fi boots I've ever heard...
Kylma Sota - 2007 CDR & "10 Tracks LP" 2010
Finnish noise-crash who, for years, I thought were actual Nihonjin
doing what Nihonjin do best: clone studded niggaz down to the Planck scale...
Ingron Hutlos - "Necrophilian Hits" 7" 1984 (With Scans)
Rapunk rhapsody (heavier on the punk than the raw, though
the guitar tone is just one step removed from NYC Mayhem)...
Hell Recordings Lableography 95-97

Hedonist - "Music To Shit By" CDR (320, No Year/Early 2000s)
"Starting from 1987 with the release of 'Soundtracker', trackers became a new type of music program which spawned the 'mod' (module) audio file standard. The Mod audio standard is considered the audio format that started it all in the world of computer music. After Soundtracker many clones (which often were reverse engineered and improved) appeared, including Noisetracker, Startrekker, and Protracker. Many derivatives also appeared, including OctaMED and Oktalyzer. In the period from 1985 to 1995 when Amiga audio (which was standard in Amiga computers) was of greater quality than other home computers, PC compatible systems began to be equipped with 8-bit audio cards inserted into 16-bit ISA bus slots. Soundtracker Module files were used on PC computers and were considered the only serious 8-bit audio standard for creating music. The worldwide usage of these programs led to the creation of the 'MOD-scene'. Eventually the PC world evolved to 16-bit audio cards, and Mod files were slowly abandoned."
Middle Class - "A Blueprint For Joy 1978-1980" CD 1995 (320)
"Middle Class were an American punk rock band established in 1977 from Orange County, California. The group consisted of Jeff Atta on vocals, Mike Atta on lead guitar, Mike Patton on bass, and Bruce Atta on drums. By 1979 the original punk scene in Southern California had almost completely died out. Kids from outlying suburbs were only beginning to discover punk's speed, power, and aggression. Dispensing with all pretension, these newcomers boiled the music down to its essence, then revved up the tempos and called the result 'hardcore', creating a music that was younger, faster, and angrier, full of pent-up rage. The band pioneered this new version of punk, with their 'Out Of Vogue' 7" widely regarded as the first hardcore record. Their only LP, 'Homeland', is completely different, a skittering and complicated wonder that compares to the records of 'The Pop Group'. The song 'Listen' became a staple on U.S. college radio in the mid 1980s. The band reunited in 2011, with Matt Simon replacing original drummer Bruce Atta, and played sporadically until 2014 when guitarist Mike Atta died of kidney and lung cancer on April 20, 2014, aged 53."
[Mike's retro/vintage/oldcore store "Out Of Vogue" was a 5 minute drive from my house at the time, meeting the man there as I curiously wandered in one day was an extreme surprise and absolute pleasure. --S].
