Bridge Nine Records

This is the first Bridge Nine Records version with just the original 10 songs as they appeared on the first release. They later released a longer version with outtakes, etc. This is a classic of NYHC and should be in your collection. I recently saw one of the originals at the Las Vegas Punk Museum. They go for a coupla grand now. My biggest beef with this version (also available as a physical copy) is the lame cover art. Though the physical reissue does have all of the cover and insert art, they used this goofy art instead. And the digital download doesn’t have any of the insert art on PDF.

If you’re looking for more 80s goodness from this label, they’ve also got:

Antidote - Thou Shalt Not Kill - classic first wave NYHC 7”
Project X - Straight Edge Revenge 7” - if you’ve got the edge
Underdog - Matchless - their discography, they also sell just the first 7” by itself
A.F.’s Victim in Pain is also here

Suburban Death Trip Mind Shattering Power Blasts Demo Iowa Basement Tapes Originally released: 1985 Connecticut had several great record stores, one being Record Breaker in Manchester. There, I found an original copy of this very rare gem by Iowa’s own Suburban Death Trip (later Sonic Disruption Theory, or just SDT) Years later, I vaguely recall parting with the tape on eBay or something like that, something I’ve regretted ever since. In stepped Iowa Basement Tape Archives, a project from Kristian Day, who also runs the radio show component to these releases. As the disclaimer states, Kristian does his best to secure approval for releasing the records. Finding this again was amazing. But what does it sound like? Original, spastic, slightly metal sounding hardcore with some fun bits, and themes of anti-religion, war and farting in the bathtub.   Link: https://iowabasementtapes.bandcamp.com/album/mind-shattering-power-blasts-demo Suburban Death Trip Psychodelic Discore Iowa Basement Tape

Hardcore and Punk On Bandcamp Welcome to my second hardcore/punk blog. In this blog, I focus strictly and 80s Hardcore and Punk I found on Bandcamp. Now, you’d think Bandcamp’s search field would be enough to help you find it’s treasure trove of 80s Hardcore/Punk releases, but you’d be wrong. The search engine firstly grabs most recent releases, and secondly, includes current bands who play in the style of 80s bands, but are in fact modern.   For some reason, even vintage bands who use the term 80s hardcore in their description, or even mention in the description when the original material was recorded and or released, do not show up at the top of the results, which makes for a frustrating experience if you’re specifically searching for vintage only releases, or at least material that was recorded during the correct era. So I decided to put this blog together to hopefully make it easier to find stuff.   I’m mostly going to focus first on releases I’ve actually purchased, but will also
