Released November 14, 2016
“Debut vinyl release from Italian Raw Punks POLIS-ÄCKEL
Following on from where their 10 track demo from last year left off, the intensity is raised further with these new recordings.
8 new tracks of fast, raw and chaotic anger!
As furious and nihilistic lyrically as they are musically.
A raging mix of DISCLOSE / MAQUINA MUERTA / FRIGORA / ANTI-CIMEX / SHITLICKERS”
“Following their brilliant spilt 7” with Krigskontrast the Yorkshire Mangel Mongers bring us another Bass rumbling riff slamming throat-wrecked D-beat monster of a record. For Fans of (early) Anti-Cimex, Discharge and of course the Skitlickers”
“In 2014, DC’s RED DEATH came out of the gate and obliterated everyone with one of the best hardcore demos of the year. Their first recorded output channeled the sheer brutality and precision of crossover classics like Animosity and Cause for Alarm, without straying too far from the rawness and reckless abandon of hardcore punk. On their new LP, Permanent Exile, Red Death delivers exactly as we hope a band with a strong outset should – with an even more powerful and focused follow up release. While influences on Permanent Exile range from Negative Approach to The Accused to Anti-Cimex, one thing is made clearly evidently: Red Death are first and foremost a hardcore band. As hardcore and punk get more fractionalized each year, they are band that puts emphasis and importance on the music they are creating, rather than what scene they fit in or what uniform they are wearing. Permanent Exile is the record for those of us who appreciate every facet of hardcore, punk, and all genres in between, and that says a lot in 2015.

“FEAR OF WAR – ‘Warsongs 1985-1987’
This is the long awaited official release featuring early studio recordings of this classic Swedish Punk/Hardcore band!
14 tracks in total: 8 from the legendary compilations “The Vikings Are Coming…” and “Afflicted Cries in the Darkness of War”; 4 from the rare original demo and 2 from a previously unreleased 7” EP.
Most tracks remastered from original reel to reel tapes.
This is presented with a printed inner sleeve with photos, flyers, zines and liner notes.
Cover artwork created in 1987 by the artist whose work is featured on the cover of “The Vikings Are Coming…”
Fagersta, Sweden in the early 80’s. A small, bleak industrial town and home to a bunch of punks who were filled with the angst of the forthcoming Apocalypse of 1984 which George Orwell predicted.
It was around this time that Kerre (vocals/bass), Micke (guitar) and Hocke (drums) formed a band called Practical Joke (1981-1982), Changing the name to Fear of War in 1982. Their first rehearsals took place in the basement of Hocke’s family home.
After only 2 weeks they had their first gig in the nearby city of Skinnskatteberg, armed with only four songs which they repeated over and over again, until the usual bar fight began.
Not long after, Hocke left to join Crude S.S. and Ugly Squaws. In his place came Marko.
With inter changeable members; Fear of War, Ugly Squaws, Crude S.S. and Bedrövlers all rehearsed in the abandoned apartments called Kottmossen in Fagersta.
The “Tour in Finland 1984” included Fear of War, Ugly Squaws, Bedrövlers, Crude S.S., Anti Cimex and the Finnish band Vaurio.
Fear of War played with Disorder in Copenhagen at the “Subfestival” in 1987. This was to be their last gig before they split.”

“After the brilliant debut “7ep, here we go with the next strike!!! Again, 8 incredible raw brutal Swedish Oldschool Hardcore tunes in the vein of Shitlickers and Anti Cimex!!! No compromises on this one, just pure Swedish “Ultra Mega Raw” Hardcore!!!”
“absolutely devastating swedish hardcore punk with the drummer from anger burning! no metal influences or fancy production to be found here, just pure aggression, the way it was meant to be. if you think `raped ass´ is still the best swedish punk record ever and masturbate on our shitlickers 7″ on a daily basis, this is for you, punk! no kidding, this destroys everything in it´s path!”
