va Ståkkålmsjävlar 1978-1981

 

This CD compilation was released in 1989 and it is a compilation of Swedish punk/post-punk music from 1978 - 1981. 

The first song "Solglasögon" by Docent Död is probably the most well-known but my favorite song on this comp is "Sextiofem" by Grisen Skriker.

M - Espionage Baby 7" (1979)

 

This is not the same band called M from the UK who did Pop Muzik. These guys were from California and I think this is their only release. Two proto-punk songs and one punk-reggae tune. The mastering is terrible and it almost sounds like a live-in-the-studio demo.  

A - Espionage Baby

B1 - You've Been Had

B2 - Fast Food Suburbanite

The Pistons - Standing in the Rain 7" (1979)

 I bought this thinking I had found a long lost Pistons record but it turns out this is a different band who had released a couple other singles. 

The B-side is basic pub rock but the A-side is more quirky. Imagine if Tom Jones got his start in a garage band in 1977. 

I have no plans on getting the other two records. Not really my cup of tea but I'm hoping somebody out there appreciates it.

A - Standing in the Rain

B - Raised on Rock'n Roll
