ici sanoblast. cf 1000 / 10 tracks / 1981

RI: open circle. / 1987 (?)

First ICI press with white labels, second ICI press with orange labels. + lyric sheet. RI on Open Circle has an additional flyer. Cover art by “Pushead La Mort”, one of his earlier works. Joey Castillo later was the drummer for Danzig.

Fast and fresh hardcore in the early LA style, with some Circle Jerks/Black Flag influences. Not too melodic or catchy, but the power and the energy are there. A minor west coast classic. [7]  

Früher LA-Hardcore, flott und frisch. Melodien bleiben zwar weitgehend auf der Strecke, aber die Musik ist trotzdem unterhaltsam (Langeweile kommt bei einer Spielzeit von unter 15 Minuten sowieso nicht auf). Gitarre erinnert in besten Momenten an Black Flag. Grundsolide frühe West Coast HC-Scheibe.

Tracks: reagan’s in / problem child / teenage nark / uni-high beefrag / born deprived // fuck authority / you’re a jerk / we were on heroin / punk for a day / flush the bouncers
