Generation X - 1978 - s/t

Generation X (also known as Gen X) originally formed in 1976 in London, England by three ex-Chelsea members. They played their first gig on 21 December 1976 at Roxy club (becoming one of the very first punk bands to play at the venue). They were one of the first punk bands to play at BBC music programme Top Of The Pops.

Unlike the other punk bands, they ignored some of the "rules" and "ideals" adopted by UK punk bands, taking inspiration of British pop of the 60's.

Their singer Billy Idol is better known from his later pop period.

Massappeal - Nobody Likes A Thinker

"How did it begin? Well, i'd like to say that we met under dark, lurid circumstances, almost too painful to tell, but, alas, it all began for me on a sunny da, with birds chirping cheerfully in the trees, looking down upon three naive lads in a skate park." That's what Randy Reinmann (Vocals) says about the beggining of the band called Massappeal.

They formed in 1985 in Sydney, Australia and they are one of the most intense live experience there, back in the late 80's and early 90's.
.

They were listening to bands like Black Flag, Bad Brains, Verbal Abuse, The Exploited, Blitz and Discharge, so the music they were playing was a mix of thrashy hardcore/punk sounds.

Raw energy, fast and intense music. Just play it loud!

The Mob - Let The Tribe Increase

The Mob were formed in Yeovil, Somerset, England, in 1979, just as the UK anarcho-punk scene was taking shape.

.

From out in the dark hills this group arrived at an extreme and unique sound: they were menacing and brooding, with extremely dark music and words with none of speed or spectacle of their contemporaries.

.

They played the infamous Zig Zag squat gig with Crass in 1982 and they broke up after playing their last show in November of 1983 at the Doncaster Co-op Hall.

.

Here we have a compilation with their "Let The Tribe Increase" LP (1983) and the singles "Witch Hunt" (1980), "Crying Again" (1980), "No Doves Fly Here" (1981) and "The Mirror Breaks" (1983).

Enjoy!

And the story goes like this..

"We are Dying", in front of the parliament.

Wednesday, 23th February, 2011. General Strike with demonstrations all over the Greece, because of the new measures that the goverment announced. Reduction in salaries and pensions, increases in tickets for the public transportation, unemployment, privitizations and clearance sale of the public property - among other reasons - led people to resist, because the future is inauspicious.

Around 100.000 workers, pensioners and students marched to protest austerity policies and they clashed with the cops, when they tried to disperse them.

M.D.C. - Black Christmas

M.D.C. - Black Christmas

Christmas is black for me
No Hope, No Cheer
Christmas is black every year

Sitting all alone in your house
Nobody stirring, not a mouse
You got no money You got no friends
You got no life you don't need to pretend

Sitting there, all alone
Try to ignore the ringing phone
Your bottles empty, your drowned in booze
Don't need to here no bad bad news

There is no joy for me
Christmas is black for me
No hope no cheer
Christmas is black every year

Everyone dies on Christmas
Loneliest time of the year
Everyone cries on Christmas
Oh Christmas, Just fills me with fear

Deck the halls with boughs of Black
Your sisters dead from dealing crack
Was years ago, you were just eighteen
You weren't there but you can hear her scream

Your family waits by the Christmas tree
Just wondering where you might be
Where'd we go wrong, what can we do?
These charming strangers who don't know you

There is no joy for me
Christmas is Black for me
No hope No cheer
Christmas is black every year

Γκούλαγκ - Στην Αυλή Των Θεαμάτων/Είσοδος Κινδύνου 0°C

Γκούλαγκ (Gulag) formed around 1985 in Thessaloniki, Greece. Their name was taken from the Soviet forced labour camps.

They have personal sound, which is a mixture of punk, hardcore and metal along with melodic elements. Very tight band and it's a shame that they are not well-known.

In 1988 they toured Europe for the first time and performed live in Norway, Germany and Italy.

Here we have their LP from 1990 "Στην Αυλή Των Θεαμάτων" (In The Showyard) and their MLP from 1987 "Είσοδος Κινδύνου 0°C" (Danger Entrance 0°C). Both of them released by Lazy Dog Records.
