T.S.T. (The Shock Treatment) are one of those bands I've always liked. I remember my adolescent punk years, sitting in my room in rural sweden listening to stuff like this and drinking folköl (the peoples beer 3,5% alc, it's a swedish thing). Good times, punk rock is a great cure for emo:ish teenage angst! :)
This record, which I like to call "sweden-tolvan" is a great example of how great the band was. I really think they need the same treatment as The Bristles for example. How sweet would'nt it be with a fancy discography digi-pack! Oh well, until then enjoy this!
T.S.T. - s/t 12" (1984)
D.N.A. has been a favorite band of mine for a long time. They are pretty original sounding and have a really gloomy and melancolic edge to their music. But this is no fucking goth music, it's raw as fuck råpunk! Classic stuff!
Sorry for being lazy about the blog, but working full time takes it's toll I'm afraid.. anyways.. have been blasting Anti Cimex in the mp3-player all week! Perfect soundtrack when sitting on the tube looking at all the brainless clones...
More great punk from eastern europe. This time it's Kriticka Situace from Czech Republic. I think they're still active today, but this is early crude recording. Good stuff!
Ultra rare swedish hard core ripper! This is the swedish sound we all love. Maybe this will cure my hangover.... aaargh!
