Diagram Brothers

Before Happy Flowers in the US were bands like Diagram Brothers in England. I wish I had their classic ep with "Bricks". http://rapidshare.com/files/67436442/Diagram_Brothers.rar

Undead - It's Corruption

http://rapidshare.com/files/67432733/Undead.rar

An early Riot City record. Great plodding British punk, just right for a pogo. From the magic year of '82.

Mekons

A double single on Virgin Records from 1980 when The Mekons were still at their best. I especially like "Kill". http://rapidshare.com/files/67429256/Mekons.rar

Intolerance - Aspectos Humanos de la Vida Animal

A superb record out of Spain from 1992. Anti violence, anti animal torture lyrics with translations into four languages. I can't remember where I picked this up. I always have a soft spot for bands who have on the cover "pay no more than". How can you go wrong with a band that has its heart in the right place? The sound is still contemporary. There are a lot of bands out there today from South and Central America that still make this kind of music.

Blog of the week.

This week's favourite is http://oldxschool.blogspot.com This was just what I had been hoping for. It has loads American punk demos and live recordings. Looks like the site has been going since August, so there's just the right amount of stuff to catch up on downloading. The only drawback is you have to make several clicks to get to the download file.

Intense Degree

No this is not an ad for a hard college course. These boys were from England, but like the Stupids played with an american flair. This record was a very early Sound Pollution record, number 3 to be precise. It was released in 1990. You can't go wrong with Sound Pollution, they are still going strong and putting out excellent material. As for the guys in Intense Degree? http://rapidshare.com/files/66928564/Intense_Degree.rar

Prophecy Of Doom - Peel Sessions

From the quaint British county of Gloustershire came the overlooked band Prophecy of Doom. 1990 recording so by now the punks were playing much heavier grind metal punk. Love it! Also I have to post it as a counter balance to the next post by D.A.F.
