Stick-It-In







Another fine compilation tape from Flush Productions.

Side B with tracks from:

No Fraud
Diddly Squat
Royal Nonesuch
Infezione

And like the Shitslide tape (see previous post), Diddly Squat kick ass.

A Complete Turnaround

A Cassette compilation by Bug Scratch Tapes from Abilene, Texas (198?).

B-Side has tracks from:

Fade
Humidifier
Pushed Aside
Jawbreaker
Blood Mary
F.U.N.
Breakdown

Somewhat mediocre in my opinion, with the exception of the catchy as hell Humidifier.
Sound quality is a bit shitty...

Prong live VPRO tv (1989)

Recorded from a Dutch tv broadcoast, a show called 'Fa. Onrust', in 1989:
4 live tracks from Prong.

Third from the sun
Mind the gap
Interview
Decay
Freezer burn

Taking the Shitslide to Hell









Cool compilation tape from Flush Productions (Richmond, USA).

Side A has tracks from: Insted, The Front, Pink Lincolns, Diddly Squat & Free Love Society.

I like the Diddly Squat tracks. They appeared on other Flush Productions, but i never heard much of them besides this. The reason why can be found here. Diddly Squat bassist Nate Mendel became a Foo Fighter in later years.

Last White Christmas I (BCT-6)


I got myself a 7nd-hand cassetteplayer a few months ago. This gave me the opportunity to enjoy tapes i hadn't heard for many years. I was also planning to upload some (january 28th: 'Uploads will follow soon!'), but recording them was more difficult and time consuming then i expected.

A favorite of mine always has been the Last White Christmas I compilation from BCT (San Diego), released in 1985 if i'm not mistaken. Great tracks especially from Raw Power (their albums are great, but i always felt this was best), Putrid Fever and Useless Boys. Also, if feedback noise is your thing, give this a try.

Side A: Brontosauri, Raw Power, Juggernaut, Stato di Polizia & Putrid Fever

Side B: Putrid Fever, Dements, Useless Boys, War Dogs & Auschlag

Note: BCT tapes are still available it seems, check them out!
