THERAPY THROUGH VIOLENCE

as the COME FRIENDLY BOMBS 7" was limited to 1000 copies and is now sold out (at least that´s what I´ve been told) I´ll decided to post it in spite of the fact that this 7" is quite new! well, you might now THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE from an older post on this blog. in case that you aren´t familiar with this band it might be of interest that it´s one of bands that rose out of SHANK´s ash! but while SHANK have always been fast as fuck THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE has a broader variety in their songs ranging from sludgy parts to SHANK styled POWERVIOLENCE parts. 10 tracks that are no letdown (no wonder as they´ve titles like THERAPY THROUGH VIOLENCE)! in the meantime there was a repress with a different cover (the one you've to klick to download below) but the 2nd press was sold out pretty quick too!

  2. maybe, I never was into that SPK thing so I can´t say for sure! I would have more from THE ENDLESS BLOCKADE but as you can buy those records at any distro people should buy them instead of d/l them!

  3. Yeah SPK, an acquired taste like glue sniffing. I saw that Survivalist said there was a repress of this coming out in May. You already have 47 downloads of this. On some of your posts you have over 100 downloads and two comments. What can you say when you're giving away free shit. Thanx again man.

  4. that and the illness of my girlfriend are the reasons there won´t be 100+ postings a month! people should collect more records and not mp3s!

  5. Sorry to hear about your girlfriend man, i hope she gets better. You know the music you have here is really cool, and I agree with you, people should support the bands. The reality is that anyone can get anything they want from sites like Soulseek, which I have yet to visit. What makes your site special is your words and your passion for this kind of music. In some ways you do sell the bands if anyone's paying attention. I, unfortunately live in the middle of nowhere, and have to listen to music before I go out and do mailorder. The closest record store of any value or place to see touring bands is four hours away. I have noticed on a couple of your posts you have given information on where to get the actual stuff, like this one. Anyway... I could go on and on but suffice it to say that I realy dig what you're doing.

  6. I understand your point. another point would be a lack of money! there´s so much great music out there I could spend my complete pay on records and still wouldn´t have bought all records I´d like to have! I admit to be a collector (not one of the worst kind but still...) I still hope that once in a while someone buys a record that he/she d/l from my blog but as comments are thin I´ll try to upload more out of print stuff and leave the new stuff to soulseek (which I never tried)...
    my passion for this music is simple to explain - it saved my live! if I wouldn´t have stumbled over punk (and the martial arts) I´d have killed myself long ago either through drinking, drugs or by blowing my brain out! living in bavaria can be hell!

  7. I hear you loud and clear sir. Music, my son, my wife, and so on have saved me from an early grave. If you have the time read this, http://mustard-relics.com/2007/12/13/saint-vitus-thirsty-and-miserable/
    You are killer at what you and I'm glad you've found freedom from some of the things that lead to misery and death. Thanx for your time. And by the way this post rips!!!
