the IRON COLUMNS 2 x 12'' comp. comes in a thick gatefold sleeve and a thick booklet that´s glued to the sleeve. so no scans of the artwork this time! to be honest all I read so far were the lyrics of the bands. the rest of the booklet annoys me right from the start with headlines like "DEAR ANARCHIST BROTHERS AND SISTERS" e.g.! the few things I no
ticed seem to deal with sexism and mind manipulation which is basically a pretty intersting topic (b.t.w. in correct English shouldn´t it be "WAR AGAINST TERRORISM" instead of "WAR ON TERROR"?) but I ´d to doubt that there is anything you can explain to someone who doesn´t have at least some basic knowledge in that matter with that little info you can provide with such limited space! but as I haven´t read that much I can´t really judge! anyway, take a look on the list of the bands that appear on this compilation if these names are no reason for you to download, probably nothing that I could add would be a reason for you to do so! cause of this I´ll just tell you that
MAKHI are better known as
SEVERED HEAD OF STATE and that I´ve been told that their tracks from here are included on a
SEVERED HEAD OF STATE discography CD where the name
MAKHI isn´t even mentioned, that the 3
KRIGSHOT tracks (one being a cover of, you guessed it,
MOB 47´s
KRIGSHOT) aren´t available anywhere else as far as I know and that the worst band on the comp. is Dutch
BOYCOT but that was to be expected! oh, and on my copy the labels were completly messed up!
