Rattus - "Loud And Fast " (Split With Anal) Tape 1982, "Kun Pommi On Pudotettue" Tape 1984, Live WFMU 9-30-04



"Rattus is a punk band from Vilppula. In addition to Finland, the band has toured frequently abroad, where they gained a cult reputation. The group, which ended in 1988, was reassembled in the early 2000s. Jarkko Marjamäki (Jake) and Veli-Pekka Hyvärinen (Vellu) founded Rattus in 1978. At first, they played English-speaking covers for their own amusement. Jake's brother Tomi Marjamäki (Tomppa) joined a few weeks later. Rattus' name was taken from The Stranglers' 'Rattus Norvegicus' album. Anssi Nieminen aka 'Annikki' was chosen as the singer.

In 1980, Rattus' first seven-inch single Khomeini Rock was released, which was printed in 200 copies. The record was released by their own label Hilipili records. The B-side song was 'Munkipunk'. The next recording took place in early 1981: Fucking Disco was also released on Hilipili in 300 copies. 50 went to sale in England. The next four recordings were released by a real record company, Poko Rekords from Tampere. In 1981, Poko released the 12" 'Rattus On Rauta'. In 1982 the 7" EP 'Restricted Nuclear War' was released (also pressed on Brazilian and French labels). In 1983 the 12" 'Toilet Burst' was released, as well as the next 12" 'Religion Is A Risk' in 1984, of which Pushead drew both covers.

In 1985 Rattus began to turn more into metal music and was influenced by Venom, Slayer, and Metallica. In 1986, Annikki resigned as a singer and was replaced by Jake. In December 1986, Kari joined the band as the second guitarist. The band’s gigs in Denmark and Sweden in 1987 were disappointing, the metal line didn’t bite and the audience wanted old material. In 1988, the band released the 7" 'Win Or Die' (preceded by the LP 'Stolen Life'). Rattus performed their last concerts in February 1988 in Jyväskylä. They reformed in 2001 and still play out and record sporadically."

Purgen - 1992-1999 (MP3 & MPG)



"Purgen are a Russian punk rock band from Moscow. Ruslan Gwozdew and Gennadij Filimonow, alias 'Tschikatilo', founded the band in 1989, inspired by bands like The Dead Kennedys and The Exploited. From 1989 to 1991 the band called itself 'Lenin-Samotik'. During this period, the third band member was the drummer 'Akkumulator', who probably left the band before 1991. The first album 'Brezhnev Lives' was recorded at home and with instruments borrowed from the 'Palace Of Pioneers'. The second album 'The Big Stench' was recorded in the assembly hall of an unnamed Moscow school, where students were taught how to carve tombstones out of marble. At the time of admission, Gwozdew was a student. The third and last album before the band was renamed was called 'Good It Is, Where We Are Not.'

The name Purgen came about when the band was supposed to play for an American delegation one evening. However, the appearance did not take place. The reason for this was that Gwozdew wanted to appear in a t-shirt by the band Dead Kennedys and Filimonow with a self-designed t-shirt and the inscription Brezhnev Lives. The shocked school management forbade the performance and expelled the band from the school. Both band members then met with other punk bands, including the band 'Punk Rats', which at the time consisted of Yevgeny Arjenov and Oleg Buchtijanow. The members then became part of the band Purgen. With this line-up the first three albums were re-released under the band name Purgen.  In the 28 years of the band's history there have been various crew changes that have resulted in 21 former band members. Ruslan is the only remaining founding member. Guitarist Oleg 'Diagenz' Sobolew joined in 2008 and is next to Gwozdew the member that has been with Purgen the longest."

Disturbed MN - "Don't Expect Any Miracles" Demo 1990


"Some killer, violent & complex thrash here by Minneapolis's DISTURBED from their sole demo [2nd or 3rd. --S], released in 1990. Similar to SACRIFICE's 'Forward To Termination' & ATHEIST's 'Piece Of Time' albums, with some hefty mosh parts too. Great quality, awesome musicianship & inventive delivery. 4 tracks in 20 minutes. Restored & mastered by Mahler Haze, June 2021."

Sigillum S - "Trance Flexure" Tape 1986 (320)



"Sigillum S is an experimental music project from Italy. The style is post-industrial , especially ritual. They started on December 23, 1985 in Milan. Founding members were Eraldo Bernocchi, Paolo Bandera and Luca Di Giorgio. The musicians completely reject the term 'band'. Instead, they see themselves as a kind of open collective in which everyone is invited to contribute their work and deal with different topics musically. The two core members Bernocchi and Di Giorgio worked there with musicians of Ain Soph, The Sodality, Gerstein, Iugula-Thor, Dive, Current 93, the sculptor Milo Sacchi, the multimedia artist P.M. Koma, and many others. During the first ten years after its founding, Sigillum S toured extensively through Europe and Canada. The performances were extensively accompanied by multimedia elements such as videos, slides and other works of art. The use of these elements should increase the impact of the music. In addition, the members of Sigillum S themselves work in the field of visual art and in the field of literature. The interest in permanent exchange between art and music led to the foundation of the artist group 'Verba Corrige Productions'.

After a relatively high number of published records in the first 15 years, the output then decreased noticeably. After abstraction in 1999, apart from occasional contributions to compilations, nothing was published for years. From 2000 to 2006 the members devoted themselves more to solo careers and other music projects, such as Black Engine, Ashes, Somma, The Sodality, Helix, or Koma. In 2007 a publication called '23/20' appeared again, in which a review of the work of Sigillum S and the numerous collaborations was given. Since then there have been isolated appearances again. As of 2010, most releases have been republished as a digital file in popular digital music formats for download.

The music of Sigillum S consisted of very dark noise structures mixed with various influences from the ritual at the beginning. In addition, sounds from ethnic music and the flat structures of the dark ambient were used. The use of a large number of instruments is typical for Sigillum S, in addition to guitar, bass and keyboards, these are also samples, ethnic instruments, shortwave generators or a guitar synthesizer. In the more recent publications, the sound became significantly more rhythmic, sometimes even danceable, under the influence of techno. In terms of content, Sigillum S rejects any kind of taboo and often deals with political, religious and philosophical aspects and structures. The main purpose of the sound is to discover the forbidden areas of the subconscious. Occult symbols and signs were often used in the design of the sound carriers. Another design variant are morbid images of corpses, skulls, etc."

The Disturbers / The Sextons (Pre Larm) - 1980 Demos


"Me, Olav & Jos started our very first band in 1980, that band was called THE SEXTONS which was soundwise a punk band with me on guitar, Olav on drums, Jos on vocals & Alex on bass. None of us could actually play or tune an instrument, still we wanted to start a band, and so we did! This band was short-lived we did like 2 demo's and 1 gig. After that we had 2 other short-lived bands from 1981 till 1982: THE DISTURBERS and TOTAL CHAOZ. Total Chaoz was to some extent (soundwise and playing faster stuff) the band that would lead to LÄRM. We already did play some songs with Total Chaoz that would end up in the LÄRM setlist. With both bands we did record some demos but none of the bands ever played a live show. Around the end of 1982 we started LÄRM." --Paul 2017
