ULTIMO RESORTE - La Larga Sombra Del Punk LP (La Vida Es Un Mus Rec.) 11,50 EURULTIMO RESORTE were the bridge between the very first Spanish Punk Generation and the first Spanish Hardcore Wave. During their 5 years of existence (1979-1984) they only managed to record a demo, and two impossible to find records. A self-titled 7 track 7" EP and "Una Causa Sin Fondo" a 5 track 12". "La Larga Sombra Del Punk" compiles both those records plus a 16 pages 11"x11" booklet with a long interview with the band and tons of pictures and fanzine clippings.
Musically they lay in between the most aggressive parts of VICE SQUAD, DISCHARGE, ELECTRIC DEADS or even SIOUXSIE AND THE BANSHEES. Fronted by Silvia Resorte her voice became their trademark always backed by an urgent band trying to figure out what hardcore was about and a synth player that created a cold atmosphere over most of their songs. This seminal band hailed from Barcelona and you can tell with the desperate feeling their songs have. Their lyrics have that teenage angst feel that only bands from the early 80's managed to write. Together with RIP, KANGRENA, ANTI-DOGMATIKSS, VULPESS, DESECHABLES or LARSEN this band helped putting Spain in the international punk map back in the day.
ULTRA BULLITT - You Can't Be Serious LP + Bonus CD (Beast Rec.) 11,90 EURThis deluxe gatefold sleeve vinyl edition comes with an included CD.

Shake it hard to be shaked! A lovely cocktail to make the girls dance, and make the boys raise the fist! Vintage valves amps, thundering drums, BIG sound is right here! A screaming voice, a dense rythm section, helped by a fat warm Les Paul : all the "Garage Rock" flavour which would't forget melodies and hypnotic riffs.

Released by our brother in crime Larry from Houston. He also co-released the SECRET PROSTITUTES - Mati Di Moskow 7" with P.Trash. So do not miss the start of this fresh Texas label!!!
This is the first long player for this Danish hardcore punk band from Odense. A throwback sound from Reagan’s second term can be heard in the 17 tracks that bring back memories of Iran-Contra, an A-10 blasting a tank, MX missiles, and a still-standing Berlin Wall. Riffs and short solos recall the sound of hardcore bands that had heard Bonded By Blood and Kill Em All and liked them. UAK could be likened to crossover because of their combination of hardcore punk with thrash, but this band is punk before metal. They lack the goofy humor and flip-bill-ball-cap style of mall rat crossover that evolved into rap-metal breeding. Picture them playing with Fearless Iranians, Septic Death, Christ on Parade, or most obviously, D.R.I. UAK would have fit perfectly into the time and this LP could pass as a genuine release from the end of the arms race. (Bad Hair Life LN-003) 2-sided inserts and poly-lined sleeves for vinyl included.

URGES - Psych Ward LP (Screaming Apple Rec.) 10,90 EuroBorn out of suburban frustration The Urges started out in a damp Dublin garage in late 2004. With little or no musical knowledge they set out to write nothing but raw stripped down rock 'n' roll. Since then they have enjoyed the success of their debut single '(Around &) Around Again' which topped the Irish charts in the summer of 2005 and have played along side many big named bands such as The Zutons, The La's, Wild Billy Childish, Paul Weller, Ocean Colour Scene, The Buzzcocks, Babyshambles, Kulashaker and just about every major garage band since the 60's (The Electric Prunes, The Remains, The Cynics, The Pretty Things). They have been included on a number of compilations with the likes of The Hives, 5678's, The Brian Jonestown Massacre and The Chesterfield Kings & have spent the last year playing festivals throughout Europe including Oxygen (David Bowie, The Strokes, P.J. Harvey, The Kings of Leon) and the notorious Primitive Festival in Rotterdam, Holland (Von Bondies, The Mighty Ceasars, The Chesterfield Kings) The Urges sound can be traced as far back as the mid 60's where primal fuzztone and psychedelic organ kicked of real rock 'n' roll - all the way up to the present day where indie garage rock could not be a more domineering musical force. When it comes to live shows The Urges don't resort to filling a set with pagiarized riffs & shoe gazing, their performances are both primal & chaotic emanating a threat of violence which makes the men stand back & makes the girls step forward! The Urges effortlessly drift in and out of different timings & melodies but constantly maintain an authentic yet primitive sound which always leaves the crowd crying for more. Having spent the last two years honing their sound The Urges have managed to capture this on their debut album. A new generation of teenage psych-punk bands is hitting the scene these days and the leaders of this movement are without any doubt the amazing Urges, which 'Psych ward' proves impressively. They can be best described as the missing link between those old titans of the 60's, such as the Music Machine, the Seeds and the Electric Prunes and the 'Paisley Underground' of the 80's with bands like the Morlocks, Fuzztones and Miracle Workers. In fuzz we trust!!! The vinyl comes in a lim. edition of 700 Copies
USELESS EATERS - Panic Attack b/w Deathview 7" (Jethrow Rec.) 6,00 EURHIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!! Panic Attack is Seth backed by the COLA FREAKS, b-side is Seth solo. Best USELESS EATERS record yet. USELESS EATERS like KBD and hate fashion, hate proficiency, hate snobbery, and probably hate you! Singles on JAY REATARD´S Shattered Records, Italy's Goodbye Boozy, and other obscure vinyl outposts worldwide are spreading the sound.
USELESS EATERS - Sucked In 7" (Goner Rec.) 5,50 EURUsing cheap amps, cheap mics, and cheap tricks, Seth Sutton has created a fantastic and fascinating body of work as USELESS EATERS. Taking his name from a snotty VOMIT PIGS track from a snotty Killed By Death compilation, Sutton has aligned himself with the losers, the forgotten, and the never-were-knowns of "back in the day". Barely out of high school, Sutton has absorbed all the lessons of Punkrock's first 30 years and avoided the traps of sentimentality, phoniness, and the urge to impress anyone outside of the band. USELESS EATERS hate fashion, hate proficiency, hate snobbery, and probably hate you. Singles on JAY REATARD's Shattered Records, Italy's Goodbye Boozy, and other obscure vinyl outposts worldwide are spreading the sound. USELESS EATERS are the real deal!
