Repress is delayed... Adventurous southern California punk trio Agent Orange was the first band to mix surf rock with punk. The group was formed in1979 in Placentia, a small town close to Fullerton and Anaheim, by front man Mike Palm on guitar and lead vocals, Steve Soto on bass, and Scott Miller on drums. That early line-up recorded the classic version of "Bloodstains" in 1979 as a demo produced by Daniel R. van Patten (of the group Berlin). A year later it was included on the seminal Rodney On The Roq compilation album released by Posh Boy Records. Meanwhile, James Levesque had replaced Steve Soto (Adolescents) and the new line-up released their own self-produced and self-released 7" EP in 1980. A year later, the group signed with Robbie Fields' Posh Boy Records for their debut LP, Living In Darkness, co-produced by Fields and former Simpletones guitarist, Jay Lansford. The album was recorded at Brian Elliot's store front studio in North Hollywood (a few years before Elliot struck gold writing Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach"). A milestone in California punk rock history. Includes five bonus tracks. Black vinyl.

Reissue of The Vikings Are Coming..., originally released in 1985. Swedish punk began in the late '70s and by the mid-80s, the small steel mill town of Fagersta had seven bands, immortalized on rare compilation The Vikings Are Coming..., which is surprisingly diverse: Bizarr's old-school punk is influenced by the Clash and SLF; Cruel Maniax give social criticism and Crude S.S.'s hardcore draws on Discharge; Rescues In Future's speedcore is super melodic, influenced by Hüsker Dü; Fear Of War's thrash is anti-religious and there's more thrash from Bedrövlerz (or "Miserablerz"), while Ugly Squaw proffer unique power-punk humor (also making an incognito faux-reggae appearance as Rasta Boys). This edition revives the original Swedish version released on Uproar Records in 1985, giving us the full monty of this must-have anthology.

Never-before-heard unreleased junkshop glam gold dust from the genre's No.1 band. Portsmouth's Hector are widely regarded as the very best of the junkshop glam rock bands introduced to us in the early 2000s by the RPM's Lipsmackin 70's CD series. Recently discovered archive analog tape recordings found in the attic of front man Phil Brown form this unique LP. The band's original DJM singles together with "Demolition", an unreleased third single, join forces with outtakes, demos, live and rehearsal recordings to make this release an unmissable opportunity for glam rock fans worldwide to hear more from the band whose anthem "Wired Up" has been adopted as a battle cry by a new audience of fans with books, fanzines, radio shows and club nights proudly named after it. Hector's "Wired Up" was released in 1973. It had all the ingredients of a hit single. It should have topped the charts and launched a spectacular career for the band. In a fair world, the name Hector would be mentioned alongside bands like Sweet and Slade. Unfortunately, timing and luck weren't on their side. The product was there, the press coverage was there, the Radio 1 airplay (which was everything back then) wasn't and the kids that did hear it must have been deaf, dumb and blind. The plug was finally pulled in 1975 after their second single "Bye Bye Bad Days", another poky punch of proto punk dressed up in a velvet glove, also failed to become a heavy-hitter. Demolition (The Wired Up World Of Hector) is not a phoenix from the ashes. It is Pompey* from Pompeii. Tunes from the ruins. Glamor in amber; perfectly preserved. A second chance to make a first impression. Assembled by Lorenzo from Giuda in full cooperation with the band. Liner notes by Tim Orchard. Remastered by Danilo at UFO-HiFi studios. Obi strip.

Originally released a mere eight months after their groundbreaking 1978 self-titled debut album (RADCD 003CD), The Kids' second album is a pure masterpiece of straightforward punk rock. A little less raw than their previous material, but still far from the new wave sounds the band started experimenting with on their following records, Naughty Kids remains one of the best examples of non-UK '70s punk and definitely a mandatory addition to the collection of any Killed by Death fanatic! This reissue also includes five bonus tracks recorded live in 1978. CD digipack with obi strip.

Radiation Records present a reissue of Discharge's Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing, originally released in 1982. Fully licensed, limited cassette version for this absolute punk classic. Hear Nothing See Nothing Say Nothing is the debut studio album by English hardcore punk band Discharge, released by Clay Records. The album is characterized by a minimalistic approach of music and lyrics, a heavy, distorted, and grinding guitar-driven sound and raw, shouted vocals similar to a political speech, with lyrics on anti-war themes.

Reissue, originally released in 1977. First time on cassette for the debut studio album by English punk rock band led by vocalist/guitarist Adrian Borland, who would go on to form The Sound. In 1976, they home-recorded Calling On Youth, a searching full-length that straddles nihilo-punk argot ("Terminal Case" and "I'm Screwed Up") as well as smudged glam balladry ("Start Over" and "Weird"). For any fan of The Sound, an essential purchase.

Reissue for John Joseph's own all-star group 2017 debut album. At its purest, there is little that can match the visceral thrill and empowering spirit of hardcore. As front-man of New York City hardcore kings Cro-Mags, this is something John Joseph knows very well, and with Up In Arms, he and his Bloodclot compatriots deliver a furious collection that hits hard on every level. The music reflects the roots and passions of the individual members. Danzig/Murphy's Law guitarist Todd Youth was the first piece of the puzzle. Having been friends with Queens Of The Stone Age and Danzig powerhouse drummer Joey Castillo for three decades, the two musicians had long admired each other's work, and their collaboration has been a long time coming. Following Castillo's suggestion of bringing in Nick Oliveri (Queens Of The Stone Age/The Dwarves) to handle bass duties, the lineup was complete. The songs that comprise Up In Arms manifested after the quartet plugged in and let the music speak for them. Every track on Up In Arms lives up to the rallying cry of the album's title -- the bursts of high energy hardcore act as the perfect accompaniment to Joseph setting his sights on injustice and the seemingly endless flaws of the contemporary world. The breakneck thrashing of "Slow Kill Genocide" is an anthem for everyone sickened by those responsible for "killing the planet and all its inhabitants through industry and war. They're fucking maniacs and must be stopped." The suitably titled "Manic" attacks with bared fangs, Joseph making it clear that you can only push someone so far before they will react with violence -- a call to arms for the disenfranchised who want tomorrow's world to be better than today's. Tracked at NRG in Los Angeles, the raw, old-school production that leaps out from the speaker comes courtesy of producer Zeuss (Hatebreed, Revocation), and the record was mixed by Kyle McAulay at NRG. From the moment the opening title track explodes to life, it's clear that everyone involved is having a blast and playing from the heart, and that this is no frills/no bullshit music at its most passionate -- every song evoking mental images of utter chaos in a heaving mosh pit. Includes double-sided insert; white vinyl; edition of 500. Licensed from Metal Blade.

INDIE EXCLUSIVE, RSD ITALY JULY DROP RELEASE. Limited pink vinyl. Future transgender pioneer Jayne County began as Wayne County, starring in Femme Fatale with Patti Smith and fronting the Backstreet Boys at CBGB and Max's Kansas City, where County was an early punk deejay. Moving to London in 1977, County formed controversial proto-punk band, The Electric Chairs and this immortal self-titled debut LP, released by Safari Records in 1978, has many highlights, like the Teddy Boy-meets-punk of "Eddie and Sheena" and full punk "Out Of Control" and "On The Crest"; even the spacy "Plain Of Nazca" is a mighty rockin' storm, led by JJ Johnson's pounding rolls and Greg Van Cook's jagged guitar, though "Big Black Window" somehow ropes in shades of country and blues-rock and "Rock And Roll Resurrection" sums up County's ethos, excessive, filthy and raw. In a word: indispensable!

By the time of this release (on Syndicate Records, 1983) the group had gone through numerous line-up changes and were now sporting a heavier, more melodic, hard rock-based sound, fronted by ex-Last Resort vocalist, Roi Pearce. One of the hardest hitting punk albums of the '80s, A Fistful Of... 4 Skins is reissued here on LP with two bonus tracks: "On The Streets" from the Son Of Oi! compilation and a demo version of "Saturday".

INDIE EXCLUSIVE, RSD ITALY JULY DROP RELEASE. Limited pink vinyl. These tracks were recorded early-to-mid '74, almost a year after the band had formed and almost two-and-a-half years before the release of the first Saints' single in 1976. The recording was made in Ed Kuepper's parents' garage, except for "Misunderstood" which was recorded at Queensland University, direct onto a mono cassette-deck and features the second line-up of the band. Before this the Saints were a three-piece, with Ivor Hay on piano and no drummer. It captures the band near the beginning of its first phase, as opposed to the EMI release which was at the end, and without getting into a debate about aesthetics, this one's probably better. In a different universe, this would have been the first Saints LP.

Pink vinyl; limited edition of 150. Channel 3, aka CH3, was formed in 1980 in suburban Cerritos, about 20 miles southeast of Los Angeles, with frontman Mike Magrann, guitarist Kimm Gardener, bassist Larry Kelly, and drummer Mike Burton. Signing to Posh Boy in 1981, their eponymous EP had the hit "Manzanar," which was championed by John Peel on the BBC. Posh Boy founder Robbie Fields was in the producer's chair for their excellent debut originally released in 1982, Fear Of Life, a blistering punk assault on American values. Free from the heavy metal leanings of their later work, this no-holds-barred debut is a must for all fans of So-Cal hardcore.

Radiation Records present a reissue of Icons of Filth's Not On Her Majesty's Service, originally released in 1983. Legendary Welsh anarchist punk band Icons of Filth was formed in Cardiff at the end of the '70s, having been known as Mock Death and Atomic Filth in earlier line-ups. This blistering debut, culled from demos laid in September 1982, was a cassette-only release -- the first issue on the Mortorhate label, run by fellow political punks, Conflict. Over clamorous drumrolls, jagged guitar and super-charged bass, front man Stiggy Smeg spits lyrics fighting against the system, championing animal welfare and a vegetarian lifestyle. This is the band at their rawest and most unfiltered -- required listening for punk diehards. Comes with folded poster with exclusive unpublished photo by Robert Revill. Splatter vinyl; edition of 100.

Controversial glam act New York Dolls were the epitome of rock n' roll excess, prefacing the rough edges of punk. Formed in late 1971 and initially known as Actress, the earliest incarnation featured bassist Arthur Kane, guitarist Rick Rivets and the guitarist that would become Johnny Thunders, with drummer Billy Murcia and singer David Johansen; soon, Rivets was replaced by Egyptian-born Sylvain Sylvain. Decked out in androgynous clothing, including platform boots, lipstick and body stockings, The Dolls toured England in 1972, which was ruptured by Murcia's tragic alcohol-and-drugs-related death, bringing Jerry Nolan into the group. Signing to Mercury, they issued a self-titled debut, followed by Too Much Too Soon, but disappointing sales saw Mercury drop them. Live At Radio Luxembourg was recorded in December 1973 and features hot live versions of songs from these two seminal studio albums; with plenty of banter delivered in cod-French accents between the tracks, the set reveals the group in their prime, their no-limits attitude taking the form of raucous guitar riffs, shouted vocals, crashing drums and driving bass, and in addition to classic Dolls like "Puss N Boots" and "Jet Boy," there are some blues references too.

Cassette reissue of The Residents' Eskimo, originally released in 1979. In 1979, "punk" music was all the rage. The Residents had gone through the punk stage three years earlier were ready for anything that was not punk. When it was finally released Eskimo was a hit, both in sales and in reviews. The album tells the story, without words, of the assimilation of a ritualistic society into consumer culture. This story unfolds as Eskimo fables set to the grinding of sound effects and music. Eskimo is, quite literally, a unique experience.
