SUBHUMANS- No Wishes, no Prayers LP (SST Records, USA, 1983)

SUBHUMANS- No Wishes, no Prayers LP (SST Records, USA, 1983). Get the mp3, buy the record.

In my opinion, vinyl, played on a good old record player through a tube amp, is always better for punk rock.

Code Of Honor - What Are We Gonna Do? 7″

Code Of Honor - What Are We Gonna Do? 7″.   Solid Hard Core.  Their split with Sick Pleasure is worth owning.

PUNKTAPES.COM

Although not as frequently updated as some, PUNKTAPES.COM is another punk rock mp3 blog I will be visiting (and downloading from). I also like the fact that they will place all the mp3s from a tape into one Zip file. Check it out.

Update: Some of their posted Mp3s are pretty low quality. If you have the software, you might want to enhance these tracks.

 I saw The Dickies open for GWAR. They were a good warm up to fake blood.

THE HUGH BEAUMONT EXPERIENCE- The Cone Johnson E.P. 7" (Cygnus Records, USA, 1981)

Hear THE HUGH BEAUMONT EXPERIENCE- The Cone Johnson E.P. 7" (Cygnus Records, USA, 1981).  The Texas "Cottage Cheese from the Lips of Death" compilation LP is worth owning.

SLIME- Wir wollen keine Bullenschweine 7"EP (Moderne Musik, Germany, 1980)

SLIME- Wir wollen keine Bullenschweine 7"EP (Moderne Musik, Germany, 1980). I've always found them catchy. Perhaps it better not to speak the language?

GISM- Detestation CD (Beast Arts / VID Records, Japan, 1992 [1984])

GISM- Detestation CD (Beast Arts / VID Records, Japan, 1992 [1984]). Until now, I had only heard Endless Blockade for the Pussyfooter on the P.E.A.C.E./War Compilation. Definitely a must get download.

STAINS- John Wayne was a Nazi, b/w Born to die 7" (RRadical Records, USA, 1980)

Before they were MDC in San Francisco, they were the Stains in Austin, Texas. They didn't like Texas much. STAINS- John Wayne was a Nazi, b/w Born to die 7" (RRadical Records, USA, 1980) is Texas Punk Rock at its finest. One thing about Punk Rockers in Texas, at least in the 80s and early 90s, is they were not posers.

Peggio Punx - La Citta… E.P. 7″

From Italy (1983), it's Peggio Punx - La Citta… E.P. 7″. It has the typical frantic style of most Italian 80s hardcore, and some of the better I've heard. I like driving to it.
