Neon Hearts - S/T 7" 1977

"Neon Hearts were Wolverhampton's first punk band that had a short lived existence from 1977 to 1981 at the height of the punk movement.

The band was founded in the summer of 1977 by Steve Heart when he quit Birmingham-based Suburban Studs after being told a sax player was inappropriate in a punk band. The initial line up included Steve, his bass playing cousin Paul Raven, a drummer friend of Paul's named Keith Allen, and Martin Ratcliffe, a guitarist friend of Keith's.

After a few weeks rehearsing, the band went into Lee Sound Studios to arrange a demo recording session.

They soon came across a solo singer playing local pubs and clubs doing his own songs and a few Bowie covers. Tony Deary (later Tone Dial) joined the band after a couple of meetings and the band (now five members) was complete. After much debate the band decided to call themselves Neon Hearts.

After the first sessions at Ginger Studios two songs, 'Regulations' and 'Venus Eccentric' were chosen to become a double A-sided single released on 1 December 1977 on the band's own label, Neon Hearts Records. The first pressing of the single was released in an oversized 8" sleeve due to a printing error."

Raw Hate - Demo (Year?) & "Drunk As Fuck Existence" 7" 2008

A noizy (blown out, not Japanese style) early 'Cimex with HUEVOS the weight of tank treads! Demo is thinly recorded, but still shares the same great playing ability as the 7", the production of which sounds like 100,000 bayonets clashing atop a beachhead of pulverized skulls. TOP discore that'll shred your brain as easily as your speakers!!!

Cathedral - Demos 1 & 2 1990-1991


Winterswijx Chaos Front - Live Soundboard '85, S/T 7" '86

Dutchcore that channeled a very "American" style throughout: Chillin' in the back yard with an Agression shirt, Vans SK8 mids, and bragging about having "done time", usually just county jail, and always from pulling a crank bender before assaulting your mother. "Just Socal thangs"...but thrashier.

Toronto hardcore legend doing legendary shit before the legend even began! I'm not even being sarcastic for once: PUNK R-A-W-K!!!

White Pigs - 7" '84, "Hit Bonanza" Demo '85 (With Scans), "Hit Bonanza" 7" Version '89, "Songs Of Sin" LP '89

Devoid Of Nate once typed...
"...The band originally formed in 1980 out of the ashes of 'Zak And The Soda Boys'. W.P.'s had many, many line up problems right up until their demise in 1989. The band went from playing aggressive hardcore punk, that at times reminded me of the Abused, or Antidote to thrash metal with double kick drums and solos. No idea what these dudes were thinking at the time. The metal version of the band released an LP on the 'Combat Bootcamp' series. This ep came out on 'Switch Kwilson' and is perfect in my opinion. Its been said that only 400 of these exist. I've no idea, as the band members are still squabbling on mssg boards and web sites..."  --"True Punk & Metal" Blog (2008)
