DEAD NOISE S/T 7" EP
Hailing from Los Angeles you'd think this unit is from Japan. 5 tracks of distorted as fuck noise/hardcore. Confuse,Gai,Lebenden Toten,Disorder,Dust Noise,Sieg Heil,etc all come to mind...but the strongest comparison has to be Screaming Noise(again...from Japan). Only 200 copies were pressed with 100 on black and 100 on red. The copy you see here is the red vinyl version with the limited to 30 silk screened cover. Write the band and good luck on getting a copy!

THE BOMBETTES "YOU HAVE NO CHANCE,LANCE!" 7" EP
The cutest 5 piece from Sweden are back with another winner of an ep. 4 tracks of catchy and infectious punk with a slight touch of pop thrown in for good measure! If you are into groups like Gorilla Angreb,Knugen Faller,and The Bayonettes you'll love this! All the songs are sung in English. Great follow up to the "What's Cooking..." 7" released on the Ny Vag label as well.

THE AMOEBAS "GIMME A FIX/NO EMOTION" 7" 45
In my humble opinion this is the best record of 2009! 2 tracks of just perfect late 70's KBD style punk. If this was released in 78/79 it would be on numerous boots and comps and would be selling for ridiculous amounts. Distorted,catchy,well structured songs! I would go as far as saying Wire meets the Wipers!!! Do yourself a favor and try to get one. Only 250 numbered copies pressed with screened covers and defaced dust sleeves. The only downside is the lack of a lyric sheet. Other than that it's just about as perfect as a record should be!
