Peggio Punx - Discography

One of my favorite bands ever.
Paolo Petralia of SOA Recs had the great idea to release this discography double cd on his label, putting together almost everything they recorded on studio on the first disc and some live recordings on the second one.
Italian punk hardcore of the '80s at its best, absolutely awesome.

Disc 1
Disc 2

Motam DS - S/t

FxPxOx / Seein Red - Split lp

This split combines the new breed of socio-political hardcore punks with the old guard of the genre. Macedonia's FxPxOx represent the youth movement, playing fast hardcore thrash with unmatched amounts of energy, positivity and speed. Seein Red have been a staple in the European hardcore scene for decades, bringing a straight-forward brand of pissed off political hardcore.  
 Review from Barbarossa Records

Caustic Defiance / Negative Element - Split demo

Today we go back to the early '80s. Negative Element was one of the first hardcore band from Chicago. Lead by the Stepe brothers, they disbanded when the guys moved to Peoria; there they started Caustic Defiance.
In 2009 Akashic Records had the smart idea to release this compilation split cd with most of the songs these two almost-unknown bands recorded.

Life's Halt - Studio discography

California's Life's Halt formed in late '90s.
They've always had a lot of passion in what they were doing, and for sure they played a huge part in the movement that brought the thrash style back (but without the metal shit).
55 songs! Enjoy.

RZL DZL - Both

Like many other times, I couldn't find all the infos I wanted about this band.
They're from Detroit, their lyrics are carefree and they like to put some hip hop stuff in their songs (just a little bit), but basically they play a NYC-styled hardcore.
If anyone knows something more, please tell me.

Gama Bomb - Half Cut

2010 ep by irish thrashers Gama Bomb.
11 minutes of old school thrash metal, which is quite the maximum metal-amount I can tolerate at once.
This ep was released as a limited edition bonus cd of their last full-lenght "Tales From The Grave In Space".

Beer Bong - Fast and comfortable

My knowledge of the italian melodic hardcore scene may not be wide, but these guys surely kick ass; actually this is the finest italian melodic hardcore album I know. 14+1 tracks, originally released in 1999 on Everybody Loves Records.
Speed, melody and Paolo Crimi on drums, who has the biggest cock in town.

Lion Of Judah - Universal peace

LOJ are from Washington DC, and this is their first full lenght. They're deeply influenced by bands like Fugazi and Bad Brains. The lyrics are about social problems like global warming and the Iraqi war.
 Something in between old and new school.

Infäme - II lp

Here's the 2009 lp from Barcelona's Infäme.
Their hardcore is quite fast and angry but still pretty melodic, and of course well recorded.
Their catalan lyrics concern social and political issues.
