Icons of Filth- used abused and unamused ep 1983

Icons of Filth' started life as Mock Death in Cardiff in 1979 with Aitch on drums, Daffy on guitar, Socket on bass and Fran and Tina sharing vocal duties. After several gigs in the local area, Mock Death called it a day after 1 year.

'Atomic Filth' formed shortly afterwards with Socket, Daffy and Aitch from Mock Death and Stig Andrew Sewell on vocals. Within a year the name had been changed to Icons of Filth and Socket had left to be replaced on bass by Ed. After gigging extensively, the cassette LP "Not On Her Majesties Service" is recorded in October 1982 becoming the 1st release on Conflict's Mortarhate label, this 1st release showcases Stigs intelligent and thought-provoking lyrics which are lined up as a full-frontal attack on those in positions of authority. This is followed up by the May 1983 recording "Used, Abused and Unamused" which was released on Corpus Christi records. Ed leaves after this to be replaced by Fish on bass. In December 1983, Onward Christian Soldiers was recorded and released on Mortarhate records. This LP featured a strong animal rights theme. After extensively gigging during 1984, usually with Conflict, the "Brain Death" EP was recorded in Oct 1984. This was followed in April 1985 by the "Filth & the Fury" EP. Not long after this the different members drifted apart due to family and job commitments.

The Teen Idles was the first band on Dischord Records.

T.S.O.L. 1980 Demo 7" bootleg

When T.S.O.L.(True Sounds Of Liberty) blasted onto the Orange County punk explosion in 1979 with white face paint, 6’ plus frames and blazing punk anthems, they were automatically a force to be reckoned with. There were obvious reasons why TSOL was so huge so fast: They were cuter, their songs were catchier and their live show was a lot more energetic and fun then any other band going. They single handedly initiated the influx of girls into the early 80’s punk scene. With songs about fucking the dead, “Code Blue” and gothic punk ballads like “Silent Scream”, they became the first punk “phenomenon”. it was the “OC Invasion”, and they were one of the very first punk bands I've ever heard.

Die Kreuzen - Cows and Beer EP 1982

From the Mid West, Die Kreuzen started in 1981 when four suburban kids from Illinois and Winsconsin joined forces in Milwaukee. Their name was chosen specifically to avoid stereotyping, because "no one knows what it means". Their name means "the cross" in German.
Raw and Shocking, Cows And Beer EP was unlike anything else coming out at the time. Die Kreuzen took the basic formula for hardcore and twisted it around so that it sounded sick and scary again.

septic death demo 84 85

Heres a little info i got from wikipedia on septic death:
Septic Death (Boise, Idaho) is a hardcore punk band fronted by artist Brian"Pushead"Schroeder. Septic Death's music became a major influence on bands like Integrity, Citizen's Arrest, Infest, and many other bands tied to the hardcore punk, thrashcore, crust punk, grindcore etc. scenes.
"Septic death's songs deal mainly with fear and paranoia, the mental state of a person and how it functions. A few songs deal with current issues, but those are so depressing just to read the paper, why bring more attention than a song? If you seek to bring out solutions or terror to open eyes of fear, that is well constructed. But just complaints do not have meanings of knowledge. Strength away from fear or the acceptance of fear and what it creates makes it wiser for the mind... not the person who sings the song he writes but lives in terror of them. Open the eyes and let the enjoyment in; the awareness is essential.

J.F.A. Blatant Localism EP 1981

JFA was formed around March of 1981. and came out with their debut EP "Blatent Localsm" in late 1981. Pendleton, then in the band "The Deez" and Cornelius, then in the band "Jr. Chemists", knew each other from shows around Phoenix, Arizona and from skateboarding. They began playing together after a D.O.A. concert during the band's Hardcore 81 tour. Bam-Bam later joined after meeting Pendleton at an "Industrial Dance" in Phoenix, and bestowed the moniker on the band,(Jody Fosters Army) which is a reference to his second-cousin's, John Hinckley, Jr., attempted assassination of Ronald Reagan.
The band's first show was opening for Black Flag at an Industrial Dance which was one of a series of early Phoenix punk shows. Their first song of the night was Pipetruck. I Can't stress enough how much these guys influenced me.

the clitboys we dont play the game ep 1983

I couldnt find to much info on this band so i am including a article i found on kfth.
The CLITBOYS are unique in that they stepped almost full born into controversy. From their earliest gigs to their new record (We Don't Play Their Game) they have had to deal with a flurry of criticism, from the political lyrics of the songs to the imitative nature of their thrash. The band has become one of the centers of division between "political" punks and "non-political" punks. That such a storm of disagreement should surround such a new and relatively obscure band is no small reflection on their goals. From the beginning, the band has consciously addressed pressing issues, from homophobia to conformity; sometimes, as their critics have said, in a manner heard many times before. If the CLITBOYS sometimes seem unoriginal in their approach to their music, it's possibly a reflection of lead singer and bassist Michael K.'s character. He is an enigmatic performer, whose ambition, more often than not, exceeds his grasp; and though somewhat confusing, his arguments never betray the slightest insincerity.

Red Rockers-Condition Red-1981

The Red Rockers were a great punk band from New Orleans who took their name from the Dils song of the same name. Inspired by groups like the Clash, Stiff Little Fingers and the Dils, they started off as the Rat Finks doing cover tunes of aforementioned groups, then changed their name and released the "Guns of Revolution" single before moving to San Francisco. There they hooked up with 415 Records and put out this great LP in 1981. Despite popular claims, this was not produced by Jello Biafra, something which has been constantly perpetrated on rare punk lists for years. He does, however, sing backing vocals on their punk-country cover of "Folsom Prison Blues.
