Classic DC compilation featuring Punk, HC and some experimental tracks. The legendary bands (Void, GI’s, Black Market Baby, Scream) do their usual thing; but some of the rather obscure bands are pretty good, too. My faves here are 9353; an incredibly strange and paranoid song. [8]

Ein DC-Sampler allererster Güte; neben Legenden wie Void, GIs oder Black Market Baby stehen Geheimtips wie z.B. Beaver. Die Musik reicht vom bekannten frühen DC-HC bis hin zu recht experimentellen und schrägen Sachen, die ganze damalige DC-Palette eben. Gewinner sind natürlich wieder mal 9353 mit einem einfach umwerfend paranoiden Song. Schöne Momentaufnahme einer ultra-produktiven Scene.
