UK82 appreciation thread

[dave-brown]

Got a new band project cranking and been listening to allot of '82. Going through the classics but also finding allot I hadn't heard before.IF you have any good suggestions,chuck em up. Please avoid being a funny as guy and putting up Punks not Dead by Exploited, and although GBH are amazing, and undoubtedly legendary... i'd rather discover slightly bands slightly lesser known... heres a few goodies

also this is a ripper..... I only have Volume Two on vinyl, I would pay allot of money for this ..

[dave-brown]

Slander and critique dircected at the Thatcher regime is also relevant and welcome here.... *two finger salute pulled in the general direction of Maggies grave.....

cheers . Ill check it out. I Had a feeling you would have some good input in this thread. Sex aids are awesome. Was blasting them in my car this morning. Its hard to balance humour and good music but those dudes seem to ace it time and time again..... " me and my vice squad rockstar friends"

[9seconds]

actually really like their unashamed genre drifting

[Dead Kid]

Chaos UK are fairly well-known I guess, but I hadn't heard this one before. It's actually from an EP, not the release pictured:

King for a day, skint for a fortnight...

Up your arse Samphetamine. When I started this thread and asked people not to post the Exploited, I actually was thinking of you and nearly specifically mentioned your name in the request. Your an absolute shit. Next time im in Nz im gonna egg your house, then discretely wipe my dickcheese all over your the door handle on your front door. I'll start by re opening my facebook account and disliking all your photos.

On another note Chaos Uk's Wurzels inspired project the Wazzuks are quite awesome

[Kev Japan]

Mau Maus and Virus are both worth checking out.

[Dixon Cider A.C.]

What do you reckon of Enzyme dave

[Kev Japan]

Skeptix and Special Duties are also worth checking out. Not sure if they totally fit into the sub-genre, but the Instigators are great, too.

[Kev Japan]

Also, Riot City comps tend to be a pretty decent way of hearing a range of these types of bands.

Enzyme - new melbourne heavy 82 with a tinge of crustyness. Chaos uk meets Disorder in a rhythmically chaotic fashion. Members of Kromosome, Pisschrist, Unknown to god and scabeater. Fucking epic man. Just watched em live at Squat show earlier tonight and now playing their demo tape. Well good!

They are easily the best band Melbourne has spat out in yonks. Grab a demo tape dude! It wont beat seeing them live, but its stil good. Good front man and the drummer does a well good job

[dave-brown]

Mau Maus and Virus are both worth checking out.

Maus Maus are epic as, legit and fast punching. If you mean The Virus, they are street punk band from the states, sort of late 90's I think. Yanks often have great difficulty emulating uk82 brilliance. Street Punk definately stemmed from uk82 but the yank bands seem to produce a really non genuine street punk sound which is far too over produced and almost too marketable. But that is merely my opinion and also I was massively into that stuff in my late teens /early 20's. I think i still have my Virus and Cheap Sex records somewhere. I just listened to them on you tube, it wasn't even good for nostalgic purposes, The Virus do a good Blitz cover though.

Ah they definately slot into the category, and agreed they are all awesome bands. Special Duties I have only recently started really getting into, they kind of shot themselves in the foot fan base wise with their anti Crass stance. But they are certainly have some corkers, simple but effective...

nah mate, Virus are a UK anarchy band from the early mid 80's who have recently reformed and put out a couple of good ep's. Not really UK '82 as such..

Ah 'struth. Apologies Mr Kev Japan, my bad. Ive never heard them before, not bad, I have allot of time for that era of english Anarcho punk.

[dave-brown]

The demo recording is far better than the sound quality of this. This footage definately says, "I guess you had to be there", haha but yeah, I dig Jakes drumming style, it adds so much.

Stu is one of Sydney's goodest cunts

Yeah he's well good. He moved to Melbourne and lives round the corner. Also I just moved in with your mate Canadian Phil. Hes also quite swell, hes pretty into Nos i've noticed.

[Kev Japan]

Here's a Virus (UK) demo from 1984 (not 1982)!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMEyDlr3juA

[Kev Japan]

Although they formed in '83, most Broken Bones stuff is pretty stellar.
