BATTALION OF SAINTS – Fighting Boys 12″
I like ranking things in lists, so here’s one of the three best 12″ ep’s that would fit on one side of a 7″, along with Black Flag Jealous Again and the Straight Ahead 12″. These guys took the best elements of MotΓΆrhead (metal) and Discharge (d-beat) and combined it with a healthy dose of [...]
CREEPY CRAWL!!
I worked at the Newbury Comics warehouse in 1997 when this record came out and I got a promo copy of the CD a while before it actually came out. Its a great comp CD, but it holds a special place for me because when it came out a friend and I were in the [...]
Worth Its Weight In Gold
About a million years ago, my friend Tre once commented that this EP would be “worth its weight in gold someday.” I’m paraphrasing because I doubt Tre has ever uttered that phrase, but the concept is what I’m trying to convey, people. At the time, I doubted him. Seriously. I couldn’t fathom any record with [...]
Give More, Give Everything
A while back, I posted a suspicious 50/50 Bane Give Blood LP. This one is much more obvious. And it’s more obvious how the plant tried to rectify that whole “50/50″ vs Split vinyl. This is what I feel like most of these LPs look like. Half swirly, half sharp. Good pick up though.
PAGANS – Street Where Nobody Lives 7″
While everyone else goes gaga for NYC and LA, I’m saying Cleveland has one of the best early American punk repertoires going. Here’s my favorite record of the bunchβthe second Pagans single. While not as inept as their injuriously rare* debut Six and Change, this 7″ and the two that followed are great raw, trashy [...]
It’s All Our Blood
I came across this GREAT lot just now. Actually, a little birdie told me about it … Now, my math may not be the greatest (if you saw my tax return, you’d likely agree), but $67 for these 3 LPs seems like a a second best bargain to having actually done the pre-order the first [...]
That’s What Friends Are For
The first American Nightmare EP has a lot of presses. Back To School Jam press, Blue tour press, black vinyl, blue vinyl, a couple other colors. The list is pretty long. Excluding test presses, this is the most rare. And the thing is, it was only given out to friends of the band. Very few [...]

Death By Stereo
Did you know that Death By Stereo is STILL a band? True story. They just wrapped up a tour with Agnostic Front and are soon hitting up Europe. I didn’t know. I mean, they were pretty awesome back in 2000 at Hellfest. Kids were going bonkers. If you were at this hellfest, you remember the [...]
NJHC Gap Filling BINs
Here are a couple of great gap fillers for those NJHC enthusiasts. Yes, they exist. I’m sure of it. Some of these BIN prices are a tad … extreme, but definitely go ahead and make an offer. You’d be surprised how low some sellers set their offers at. First up is the Hands Tied Euro [...]
Guns Up Rejected Test Press
I know we’ve seen test presses for this album on ebay before. BUT Never before have we seen the REJECTED test presses. In fact, I wasn’t even aware there were rejected test presses. Seller has lots of great info (of course, he’s a head). And this one seems to be coming straight from Riley’s collection. [...]
Together Comp
AS ONE We must be united, AS ONE. If this video doesn’t make you want to mosh, you are doing something wrong. I picked up my copy of the Together Comp when I purchased a whole collection. I was like a kid on Christmas morning. This collection was untouched, unsoiled, full of goodies. Here are [...]

Or you could trick a euro.
You could buy the Chung King in the below post for the same amount an average Indonesian family makes in a little over five years…. Or, you could keep chipping away at your bait-and-switch and be pleased with how clever you are for millennia to come. You must choose one. THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE. [...]
Chung King Vol.2
If you’ve been collecting records for more than 5 minutes you probably know that all of the good records reside in Japan, and this is no exception. And this time the seller remembered to put JUDGE in the title. Can’t wait till this dude drops the NY Crew or Together test presses shown at the [...]
As I/We/She/Him/Shim Look To The Future
Today is my boy Naidoo’s birthday, so here are some items he would approve of. This is the As We Look To The Future comp EP on Stonkie Records. It features Capgun, Driven, The Rolemodels and Bane. I never knew much about the other bands, but apparently one of the dudes in Rolemodels would later [...]
SLIPKNOT 7″ on red
Ah, the proverbial black sheep of the early Rev catalog. I believe “Early COC meets early COC” is the original Rev description, and a very apt one at that. I’ve heard various rumors as to the circumstances surrounding this record’s release, but I’ll just say that this is a great record and everyone should own [...]
Agnostic Front “Victim In Pain”
If I have to explain the importance of Agnostic Front’s “Victim In Pain”, you may be on the wrong blog. Please comment if you need assistance with it, and I will have Cooch write you up a 5000 word dissertation on why this album is important. Victim In Pain was just re-released on Bridge 9 [...]
How many demons does it take to screw in a light bulb?
There’s no denying that joke isn’t cash.
