v.a. Hold Up Omnibus 8″

The Hold Up Omnibus 8″ is a compilation of live recordings with Systematic Death, Ghoul, The Clay and Gastunk. The tracks by Systematic Death are all available as studio versions on different 7″es and compilations, as is one song by Ghoul. The Gastunk songs are (as far as I know) otherwise unreleased, just like all the songs by The Clay. Sadly the recording quality is mostly mediocre, but The Clay are absolutely great on this record. Really primitive, powerful stompers of straightforward political hardcore.

8 inches of noise!

Confuse – Spending Loud Night 7″

It’s time for another one of the legendary Kyūshū noise-core bands. The Kill From The Heart page calls Confuse “the most widely bootlegged Japanese band” which I’ll gladly believe, after all this version of their “Spending Loud Night” 7″ is a boot, too. These recordings from 1983 or 1984 are the rawest and noisiest which Confuse have ever released. Judging from the sound, they probably come from a demotape which they later (1987) released on vinyl. Anyway, you’ll get three intense songs of thrashing madness and the weird partysong “Spending Loud Night”.

It’s one louder!
