SlapLot

By Josh | Published 01/18/2012

If you’re a fan of the later era Slapshot then moniskater has a lot you may be interested in. What we have here is 3 different versions of the Tear It Down double 7″ on Spook City Records.

You get a test pressing which was limited to around 20, a version with both singles on Clear vinyl which was limited to 91 copies and you get a copy with 1 Red vinyl copy and 1 Yellow vinyl copy, limited to 350 copies.

Also, if your a fan of Slapshot I suggest you check out Youtube becuase they have posted up 3 new songs. 2 originals ‘I Believe’ and ‘Rejected’ as well as a cover of ‘Gates of Steel’ by Devo. There is another new song called ‘Chocomel’ which is a tribute to the bands favorite Dutch chocolate drink. That one hasnt been released yet, but you can most likely find a live version online if you search.

Slapshot triple header AKA 21 inches of Slapshot

By Tre | Published 12/19/2011

I am pretty sure I know seller bouvetislandchamberofcommerce, and in my book, he falls under the “good dude, backed hard” category. But even if I am wrong, it doesn’t matter. Dude has some decent records in the mix right now that are dying to be picked up. First up, I got a triple header of Boston’s own Slapshot. Firewalker on blue and the Same Mistake 7″, both on Taang.  And the awesome Icemen Cometh live compilation 7″ on Nemesis records.

Last Rights – Chunks 7″

By Justin O | Published 11/30/2011

headcoatt from down under has got a great slab of wax for sale. I feel as though this piece of the Choke discography outshines his previous bands, Negative FX and his later band Slapshot by a lot (and Stars and Stripes). “Chunks” b/w “So End Our Night” is a 1, 2, punch and if you have the No Guts, No Glory Last Rights LP there are some other good bangers on there as well that could have made a real good E.  There’s less than a day left on this piece of vinyl and the reserve is not yet met. Check It Out

TPT Goes Into SDO.

By morgado | Published 11/08/2011

As Test Press Tuesday runs down, we turn to seller theeels for one last shot at a decent test. And he comes through, with a Slapshot Sudden Death Overtime test press. He says this was actually made in low numbers, but it’s Taang, and they seem to always have a test press or two available so take that for what it’s worth. Still, a good way to end TPT.

Tear Down Test Press Tuesday.

By morgado | Published 11/08/2011

It’s not that I have anything against Slapshot trying to still write new material, it’s just that every time they put something out, I never find a single song that I like, let alone one that holds up to the high standard they set prior to Blast Furnace and Unconsciousness (most of 16 Valve Hate is up there tho). So yeah, you really won’t see me jumping to bid on moniskater’s reup of his Tear It Down tests, but you know what? If you’re looking for a Slapshot test for your collection simply because you like Slapshot, I wouldn’t blame you if you went for this one. And if not you, then hey at least Moshua gets a second chance at it. You know he’ll appreciate it even if I can’t get into it.

TPTh: Slapshot Tear It Down Test Press

By b. murphy | Published 10/27/2011

This might be your only chance to pick up a
Slapshot test press. I know they come up on ebay not too irregularly, but here’s an inside scoop. Moshua is in the process of moving. That means he isn’t lurking hard on ebay right now. You won’t get outbid by him!!! This dual EP dropped in 2005 on Spook City Records. I’d be lying if I told you I had heard it. Grab it from moniskater before Moshua finds his laptop under a mountain of slapshot tees.

Varsity Jackets are hardcore!

By Josh | Published 09/23/2011

This is Vinyl Noize so here is a nice green vinyl copy of Slapshot ‘Step on It’ being sold by sector.7g. I’m really only posting this auction so I can tell everyone how excited I am that I just recently got one of the original Slapshot varsity jackets from 1987. The one I got originally belonged to Steve Risteen and hes actually wearing it on the front cover of Step on It (Thats Jordan Wood in his jacket on the back). The jacket I got is beat up & missing a letter on the back, but it looks very nice in my collection!

So since you most likely can’t have a Slapshot varsity jacket just buy this record!

Photobucket

1987 jackets belonged to Mark McKay (now missing), Jordan Wood (belongs to Grace Cutler), Jack Kelly (now missing), Steve Risteen (I have it now) & Hank Pierce (he still has his)

1995 jackets belonged to Mack McKay (I have it now), Mike Bowser (he still has it), Jack Kelly (sold in Europe on tour), Skott Wade (sold to Matty Rad in Canada), Chris Lauria (sold on eBay), Mosh the Euro Tourmanager (he still has it), Doug Mackinnon the 95 fill in drummer (he still has it)

2007 jackets belonged to Mark McKay (he still has it) & Jack Kelly (I have it now)

Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Edward Lalli

By Josh | Published 09/12/2011

Generally when I have a wedding to go to I’m pretty bummed out. It means getting ‘dressed up’ (which I hate), it usually means crappy food and overpriced sodas, shitty music and dancing (which I hate) and seeing a bunch of people that either I dont know or dont care about. The wedding I went to over the weekend was a completly different story! I did have to ‘dress up’, but for me that means khaki cargo pants and a polo style shirt with newish sneakers, but the rest of the day was awesome.

It was the wedding of Mr. Ed Lalli of the Welch Boys & formerly of Slapshot & Grudgeholder and his lovely wife Heather Parsons. The wedding was on a boat with the ceremony on the roof deck and then dinner & reception in the dining area as we cruised Boston harbor. Not only are Ed & Heather great people, but there were lots of cool people there too. I sat with Mark McKay & his wife, Chris Lauria & his wife, Steve Risteen & his wife and the always lovely Reverend Hank (Wake up Hank, we’re on the line!). Also in attendence were all the Welch Boys, Shawn from Refuse Resist and a few other notables. Music included lots of standards, but with some Ramones & the Ice Cube/Little Jon Bad Brains remix thrown in for good measure. The wedding cake was shaped like an anatomically correct human heart, there were mad-libs for everyone to fill out, cupcakes & lollipops and at the ‘after party’ there was an ice luge shaped like a giant skull all cared out of ice!

I want to give a huge thank you and lots of luck to Heather & Ed. They are both great people who were married on the 10th anniversary of their first date. I wish them all the best and thanks for inviting me to share in the fun!

Now since this blog is about records and now weddings, heres the Ed Lalli discography (minus the Grudgeholder CD)…

the world class Wrecking Crew!

By Josh | Published 09/12/2011

Mark McKay dug out what I think he said is his last copy of the Wrecking Crew 7″ that he put out on Vortex Records in 1988. I must admit that I’m baffled how this is still priced so low with less than 1 day to go on the auction. There was one pressing of this record, 800 on black vinyl, 100 on clear vinyl & 100 on green vinyl. Last week Mark sold a copy of the clear vinyl single and it went for $216.02, so how the hell is this one still under $20!?!

The Icemen Cleareth!

By Josh | Published 09/03/2011

I guess that Mark from Slapshot has hoarded his share of the ‘band only’ clear vinyl ‘Icemen Cometh’ comp 7″s all these years! He just sold one that ended up over $30. With these being pretty old, unplayed and all hand numbered (this one is 273 of 500) I think this one will go for around the same.

Mark is the best guy and will probably sign this for you if you ask him to. I’m sure he would sign all your Slapshot stuff if you bring it to Quincy on October 8th and can find him in the crowd somewhere!

a note from the seller:
I played in Slapshot at this show, so you can count on the item being legit – and it has NEVER BEEN PLAYED. The version of “I’ve Had Enough” that is on here is particularly interesting, as Choke is giving Dan a hard time about Slapshot being “old men”… Quite funny.

DROP THE BOMB!

By Josh | Published 09/02/2011

I think that the ‘Drop the Bomb’ 7″ was the 2nd test press I ever got (the first being the Dropdead discography 10″) and I was so psyched to have a test press of anything even slightly relating to Slapshot that I practicly peed myself. Little did I know that a few years later I would be rolling in Back on the Map test… ok, maybe not ‘rolling’ but I do have 3 of them!

Anyway, fifthwardboy has the blue vinyl version of what I think is the 2nd pressing pressing of this 7″. The grey vinyl version comes in this same sleeve, but has the ‘Steve Priest Fan Club’ lables where as this one comes in a ‘Steve Priest’ sleeve, but has Vulture Rock Records lables. Theres a black pressing with the Vulture Rock labels that comes in a full color sleeve with a differetn illustration.

So anyway, the grey vinyl is limited to 400 and this blue vinyl is limited to only 200 so if you’re sad that you’re not going to TNT Fest this weekend to see Patriot, Combat 84, The Cockney Rejects, Red Alert & Stormwatch then shoot an offer on this record, stay home & cry in your beer… OI!

the vinyl is always greener…

By Josh | Published 08/12/2011

I’m pretty surprised that this Green vinyl copy of Step on it that randomfortune is selling ends in about a day and it has no bids yet.

Now granted its ONLY the vinyl, but slapping this in a regular sleeve and reselling it would be worth it. It would look cool in a frame too and I might make the opening bid and do that with it if I win.

1 note, the seller is way off when he says this was limited to only a few hundred copies. There were about 1000 each of the red vinyl and the green vinyl Step on It LPs. Still an awesome record though!

DIGITAL WARF AIR

By Josh | Published 08/02/2011

In what universe is a yellow vinyl copy of Digital Warfare worth what either of these are priced at!? I LOVE Slapshot much more than most people, but seriously… if this is gonna be the ‘going price’ then I may have to re-evaluate and sell off my Slappy collection!

ps – anyone that has a rejected test press of this LP get at me.

Deathwish (hold the Tre)

By cooch | Published 05/13/2011

Here’s the ultimate “lost” Boston hardcore record, courtesy of seller rock4light.

Deathwish recorded these three brutal shredders in late ’83, but for whatever reason the songs didn’t see the light of day until ’89 when future Matador Records guy Pat Amory pressed up this super limited (pseudo-bootleg?) 7″. I remember these being sold out of the back of Maximumrocknroll in the early 90s for $10 and thinking I should probably order one… unfortunately I never pulled the trigger and ended up paying through the nose for a copy years later. Lost & Found Records also pressed this up at some point, but this is the real McCoy that you should be spending your hard earned dollars on.

I’ve heard rumors of more songs from this session existing, but every time there’s talk of a new reissue, things never seem to come together. One of these days, hopefully. Guitarist Jordan Wood (RIP) went on to play in Slap Shot and bassist Bobby Frankenheim plays in the current incarnation of DYS.
