thrasher / high speed. / 17 tracks / 1985

JAP: vap. / 1986 (?)

Skateboard shaped cover. Limited edition on green vinyl. + info and photo sheet. Some copies of the Japanese version include the same COC/Poison Idea flexi that came with the VAP pressing of the Septic Death LP.

The best volume in this series, along with #2. Mostly fast and rough hardcore/skate core, highlights include Septic Death (two brutal songs in their usual style, no new songs, though), Beyond Possession (gloomy skate core with metallic guitars), No Rules (calmer and more melodic than the others, skate emo core?), Accused (good crossover hardcore), and the others are pretty good as well. Good & diverse. [8]  

Skatesampler, größtenteils schneller und derber HC; schöne Tracks von No Rules (ruhiger und melodischer als die anderen, Richtung “Emocore”), Septic Death (2 brutale Hacker), Beyond Possession (düsterer Skatecore mit Metalgitarre), Accused (guter Crossover-HC); und die anderen Tracks sind eigentlich auch sehr gut. Guter, abwechslungsreicher Hardcore-Sampler.

Tracks: Slam - wild riders of boards / Boneless Ones - the keg kept a  flowin / Christ on Parade - don’t draft me / Septic Death - thaw (cold world) / Slam - jorden den ar var / No Rules - the fall / Christ on Parade - my life / Beyond Possession - skater’s life // Septic Death - burial / Corrorsion of Conformity - what / Accused - take no prisoners / Beyond Possession - my disease / Corrosion of Conformity - not for me / citizen / Accused - splatter rock / w.c.a.l.t. / Gang Green - skate to hell
