THE MIGHTY IONS - Face Rakin' Rock CD (2000)

 

Obscure early 80's Garage rock-n-rasslin' from Boston featuring former members of UNNATURAL AXE and LE PESTE. A few of them also played on GG ALLIN's first album (Track 24 "Don't Talk To Me" was a MIGHTY IONS original). They never released anything during their existence except for "Pedro Morales" (sung to the tune of "California Uber Alles") on the 1985 compilation, 'Claws!'. Being a longtime fan of wrestling and songs about wrestling, I'm very disappointed in myself that I'm just discovering them now.

REAGAN YOUTH - Where The Hell Are You Now? EP (2019)

 

This Reagan Youth were a short lived hardcore band from Denver Colorado who existed between late 1981 to early '82 and were obviously unaware there was already a band in NYC with the same name. Which is understandable considering Dave Insurgent and company didn't have anything out at that time. At least these guys stuck around long enough to record this 7" before splitting off to play in WHITE TRASH, FRANTIX and BUM KON. It's just took 37 years for it to finally be released.

VA - Killed By Hardcore Vol. 5 LP (2026)

 

It only took 23 years but someone finally put out another Killed By Hardcore comp. Was it done by the same peeps who did the others? Who knows and quite frankly, who cares? When I first saw this online I thought, "Wait... was there a volume four?!" But I'm assuming that would be Killed By Finnish Hardcore which might be why there's no Finnish hardcore on here.  

In the days where seemingly everything's been reissued or at least  on YouTube, I was actually surprised to discover some bands that I'd never heard before. Anyways, today's the 15th anniversary of this little music blog so here's my gift to you, CHEERS!!

N/N - Pasivos Muertos EP (2010)

 

Another sick HC band fronted by Martin Sorrondeguy (LOS CRUDOS, LIMP WRIST, CANAL IRREAL, NEEDLES, HARTO etc etc). They also released a 7" before this one that I'm gonna have to keep my eyes out for.
