East Meets West

Hardcore 1990!

Check out this under appreciated gem from unholybloodlust. The East Meets West comp on Nemesis Records. Nemesis Records #4. Just a great little comp. I don’t think any of the tracks are comp exclusives (Wall Of Hate, Just Can’t Hate Enough, Injustice System … all on LPs by the bands), but bringing together all of these artists on one piece of wax is a crowning achievement. You could hand this to a young coremin for a starter course on the core. A little bit of everything for everyone. I wish they had got an Insted track instead of the Carry Nation, but heck, beggars can’t be choosers.

And with this auction, you get the clear vinyl AND a test press. Pretty cool. Of course, just like New Age Records, Nemesis Records didn’t seem to have any definitive pressing info for either of these records. Test press counts vary greatly. If anyone has any detailed info, let me know. I wonder if Big Frank knows?

Thanks to @javjavjav for pointing this one out to us.

Granted, the Simpsons AND Calvin & Hobbes may be pushing it on the cartoon front. How about some cartoon consistency?
