Inzest

01. Inzest - Violence Not Words, 1988 Vinyl LP Compilation Limited Edition      F.O.A.D. Records - F.O.A.D. 196      Reissue from 2020 Fans of early S.O.B. and Death Side should emerge from their coma and play this short beast twelve times in a row. 30 years after fruitlessly tracking down their flexi disc for a couple of years and then forgetting about the band, I can rest:  F.O.A.D. comes out with this great looking reissue, and it's a winner. I only ask, why the fixation with vinyl and its horrible noises? Anyway, now this wild thrashcore S.O.B. impersonation can be enjoyed again five times an hour.

But first let's be honest: my teenage self bought their 80s album (while my old self just torrent-downloaded the newest release) because the music was sure ok but first because it was a female band, an infrequent item then. So yes, the music rocks, this is basic 80s hard rock trying to put our a radio hit. The next obvious question is: is this as great as Girlschool, the other female band of similar stature and style then? Certainly not! While Girlschool had at least one killer, motörizing album - the monster Hit And Run, Rock Goddess were content with the slow paced basics of radio hard rock with big choruses. It is more AC/DC with a little less intensity than even the first Anvil or any Raven. And certainly not Priest, Maiden or Saxon. There are still great catchy songs and memorable fist-in-the-air moments. The truly annoying thing is the lyrics. What with these tedious love songs for fuck's sake? Headbang on that? Fuck! That 87 "lost album" even has keyboards. And then they disappeared when the speed metal took over, and then they reappeared over 30 years later with another solid rock album, as if only 6 months had passed. They still can do it! A very pleasant trip back to the golden 80s. Remove brackets and unzip: [back to the future] !ZER Rock Goddess ZER!

Blockheads will fill your aural conduits with a similar dose of excitement and carnage. Of course it comes with the standard leftist and very confused (to remain polite) lyrics that were already funny in 1983, but the wind that comes out of your speakers will blow hard enough to dry your entire week of laundry in one sitting. And it improves with time: each release surpasses its predecessor in terms of songwriting, execution and speed, to reach grindcore heaven on This World and its excellent front photo. (wtf, 8 years already, when do we get a new one?) Triplazering grindification of the zerrest! Remove brackets and unzip: [walterblockheads] !ZER Blockheads ZER!

Wardance

01. Wardance - Heaven Is For Sale, 1990 CD Album      No Remorse Records - NRR 1013 There was a quest a few days ago as a visitor was trying to identify an 80s speed metal band with female vocals. It happened to be the German band Wardance, so here we go with their album. They make an enjoyable mix of speed metal and punk that's up the alley of Acid and Znöwhite fans, without providing the intensity, novelty and excitement of these classics. Still a fun ride into the past! Remove brackets and unzip: [heavenizer] !ZER Wardance ZER!

Kinetic Dissent - Controlled Reaction - The Demo Anthology, 2020 CD Compilation      Divebomb Records - DIVE194 That is as beautiful and short a discography as an uneasy one to categorize, which makes it all the greater. There is the subtle thrash metal vibe, of the "prog" sort if you wish, and then there is the high quality rocking metallic groove typical of the late 80s, early 90s. The music is an absolute delight and the superb vocals too, especially when you need a pause between two sessions of war metal. No cheese here, at the very least much less than in a Faith No More album, only great musicianship serving first class writing. The demos are a little rougher, the production on the album is totally excellent. You know it is a classic because everything has aged extremely well, absolutely relevant 30 years later - sound, style, delivery: eternal zeritude. If you've enjoyed Kinghorse, Leeway or Last Crack, Kinetic Dissent must be added to your playlist now. Rocking triplazer awesomeness back to the future!

Evil Army is the perfect dish if you're horny for early 80s hardcore punk thrash metal. I mean the fast, short and raw stuff that was ignited by Neos, GBH and Civil Dissident. Decorate this assembly of one minute-or-less blasts from the past with Metallica riffing like it's the demo before Kill'Em All and make everything boil in oil, then load up those guns and shoot everything to smoldering remains. Evil Army perfectly caught the vibe of 1983 and render it like only three weeks have passed since, not decades. Even the sound production is a very accurate tribute to 1983. This is really at the top of the game of the retro-thrash-punk wave, a blind test mixing them with actual bands from that golden era would leave anyone baffled. Evil Army deliver the most exciting time masheen, the energy and the roughness and the frantic delivery will bang that head that doesn't bang! Awesome triplazering thrashisation of the wicked!
