Radiocaset - "Spain's Early Noisegrind History" (1990-1995) Digital Comp 2007


"Examines the years 1990 through 1995 in Spain's noisecore & grindnoise scene. Almost all of the bands used to record their stuff with a minimum of resources, and tape-recorders (in Spanish 'grabadora' or 'radiocaset') were the main tool to capture the audio of their rehearsals, gigs, and official sessions. Only a few of them used mixers or trackers, but the spirit of DIY as well as the improvisation method is present on all of these recordings. Some bands on this compilation are not noisecore or noisegrind exactly, but also industrial and experimental projects with common members from the noise bands. This compilation archives almost 100 acts in all of these styles."

Punk Lives #1-11 1982-1983


Every issue of the mainstream magazine (it shared the same publishing consortium with Kerrang) that bridged the gap between first and second wave mohicans. Fancy the Hunky Punkys?

OHM: The Early Gurus Of Electronic Music 1948-1980 3xCD 2000


"Leaps in technology, oscillators, generators, vacuum tubes, amplifiers, transistors, magnetic tape, integrated circuits, and the microchip inspired new instruments: the Telharmonium, Theremin, Ondes Martenot, Clavivox, Electronium, Moog synthesizer, and artists everywhere hungry for new modes of expression. This collection is a humble but bold attempt to give form to the wonderful, multi-directional, inevitable birth of electronic music. Many of the Ideas in this collection have now been so completely assimilated into popular listening that it may sometimes be hard to remember how surprising it all was on first outing. Some of it still sounds pretty exotic. These CDs are important as part of the story of how we got to where we are now - the cultural conversation so far - and as a still fruitful repertoire of future possibilities."

Lip Cream VS Gauze - "Live '86 Disinfection Gig" (Unofficial, Unreleased)



"Lip Cream was formed in 1984, and dissolved on September 24, 1990. Members were Jha Jha (vocals) ex Dead Cops, Naoki (guitar) and Minoru (bass) ex The Comes, Pill (drums) ex G-Zet. Lip Cream was greatly influenced by American hardcore, 70's punk, and hard rock. The unique sound and fashion received tremendous support in the scene at the time, many followers were born."

"Gauze formed in September 1981 and aimed for the UK hardcore style (ex members include Tam and Zazi). Musical activities centered on live performances instead of recording. In the mid 1980s they were introduced to the punk scene abroad through Maximum Rock n' Roll. The number of official albums is five, which is less than that of a career spanning more than 30 years, but all have been long sellers."

Creatures Of The Occult - "Christinsanity" EP 1999


Debut EP by this obscure doomy-speedcore collective (the tempo never slows,
but the vibe is always megalithic...like a more layered and aggressively programmed Tron).
Released on C-U-N-T Records (kinda)!!!
