HAIL THE COUNT!

it was so quiet here cause I had a little car accident! it wasn´t my fault and not really a big thing either but as I got hurt on my hip sitting in front of my computer wasn´t among the things that felt good! and before you ask: no, that´s not the my car on the pic above. that was the car of my girlfriend that she crashed earlier this year! while I was killing time at home I figured out that Count Yorga had sent me a lot of stuff that I hadn´t posted yet. that´s why I decided to do a Count Yorga mega post and here we go:

SLAVE STATE are 1st with their complete discography. someone requested this and the Count was so nice to jump in and provided you with 26 vicious, fast and furious little ragers that make your blood boil! sadly the Count just included the cover so you get no lyrics, artwork, etc.

Austria´s EXTREM are 2nd and the Count did everything to leave you jawdropped! apart from the track on Pushead´s CLEANSE THE BACTERIA compilation you pretty much get the whole discography: their demo from 1984, their 7" and the tracks from the split 12" with MICKEYMAN (I admitt the Count sent the complete split 12" my way but as I hate Reggea and MICKEYMAN are a Reggeaband I left those tracks out. cry me a river if you don´t like that decision!)! their angry HARDCORE/PUNK made them one of Austria´s best bands!

then there was a request for the DREAD MESSIAH 7" which was filled by the Count at once! if I tell you that they´re from the U.K. and that their 3 song 7", called MIND INSURRECTION was released on SKULD you should be able to have a clue how they might sound? and here´s a pic so you know how they look!

the next record on the list is the MALINHEADS / M.V.D. split 12". unfortunately the Count just has the test pressing so there is no cover, no lyrics... and not even all song titles! well, that´s life!

last but not least you get the THOUGHTS ABOUT A DEPRESSING WORLD 7" comp. that features VEITSTANZ, SCUM, SCRAPS, ALIEN LEAGUE and ZERO POSITIVES. it´s a nice little comp. you can do no wrong with checking this one out!

LONG AWAITED...

the 2nd MALINHEADS 7" released on Berlin´s POGAR rec. in 1986 is not as good as their 1st 7" in my ears! it is somehow way more melodic than I did remember. I always had the 2 7"es filed as quite similar in the music on them in my memory. but to my surprise that´s wrong! their 1st one is way rougher and comes across way more aggressive! came in a big xeroxed sheet of paper with the lyrics on it and the 7" had a big middle hole!!

WARGAMES

Bernard asked me in a comment if I got anything from Berlin´s MALINHEADS, that was kind of funny as I was preparing some MALINHEADS for posting while he asked. this is their 1st 7" from 1983 on Berlin´s POGAR records (which did the V.K.J. 2 x 7" too). as there are some rumors that there were just 50 copies made with the cover you see above I did a little research on the web, but all I found out was that the above cover is the cover of the 1st press and the cover on the right is the cover of the 2nd press. if anybody can tell me more about this write a comment! musicwise MALINHEADS were faster then most other German bands from the same time and had English lyrics (but used German for the title of the 7") as they had heavy influences from DISCHARGE and other U.K. bands from that time! their influences are plain to see in the name of their songs ( WARGAMES), too! and in case you don´t know: the title of the 2nd song BECKS & SEX (or BEX & SEX on the 2nd press cover) relates to German Becksbier!
