 Long compilation featuring many great Italian bands of the 90s political/antagonistic HC punk scene! A good selection of bands and songs make this tape-compilation a very nice one. Il Seme was a small label and distibution point from Northen Italy. Enjoy this fantastic sampler.

v.a. - Ticket To Hell - (Bloody Mary-Germany-c60-198?)

 60 minutes long Hardcore Punk compilation assembled by this small German label called Bloody Mary! A  buch of great bands playing mainly HC punk or similar genres, good recording and a sheet with the band`s addresses. 

The release date is not listed yet from the label`s address is clear that Germany was still diveded into west and east,so it must have been released before the year 1989. 

Big thanks to Mark Terminus for this precious pearl from the "lost and found" underground tape-network. Enjoy It.

P820P - 2000 Dead Priests -(Self Released-Italy-1999)

P820P was a band from Rome (Italy)active at the end of the 90s. The members were involved in the squatting/anarchist scene, organizing activites in the famous Torre Maura squat. This tape is difficult to find nowadays, the recording is pretty good and the folded cover-sleeve reports info and lyrics. As for the music expect powerviolence and grind-core with double vocals shouting anger and hate against religion/state/army...

To complete this post, I add a few flyers from these glory days when P820P were playing.

A big thanks to Giorgio for passing me this tape a long time ago and these flyers not so long ago, and to Simone for providing the cover sleeve.

Enjoy it.
