WC12 - ABORTION SQUAD : "Demo
1983" 12 inch
Formed in 1982, the ABORTION SQUAD was assembled from the remnants of two high school punk bands, The
BY-PRODUX, and The FIZZICAL FITS.
Listen to “Stupid jerk”
Inspired by the early 80's international hardcore scene, they combined
and wrote new songs and kicked up their punk sound a notch to HARDCORE.
In 1983 they hit the recording studio and put out a now "rare"
cassette demo tape featuring many killer "hits" such as "You
Make Me Sick" and "No Authority, No Rules" which earned them
airplay on local Boston area college stations... not bad for a bunch of punk
kids from Manchester NH !!
They enjoyed a good run of success in the 80's playing shows in Boston
with other area hardcore bands, they enjoyed having had the pleasure of being
on the bill with such notable acts as G.G. ALLIN and the JABBERS, G.B.H., and
even Boston pop icons the NEIGHBORHOODS.
The ABORTION SQUAD were part of the few hardcore punk from the New Hampshire scene, among
bands like the MURDERERS, the MIGHTY CO'S and AGROPHOBIC ARRAY... they are
incontestably the most primitive and brutal band from this scene, playing
intense and spontaneous hardcore with a real "fuck you" punk attitude.
Here's a review of one of their gig, written the 30th of June 1983 (I
think it was on SUBURBAN PUNK zine) :
"In fact, a punk band, "Abortion Squad" made one of
the strongest impression with short, frantic songs of hate and anger. The Manchester
group has a 20 songs tape, made at Kevin Tracy Studios, getting good airplay on
the Boston station WERS."
28 years later, WHO CARES? records officially the 21 songs of this demo on a 12" vinyl.
Limited as usual to 300 hand numbered copies : 50 first on limited edition and
colored vinyl, 250 next on regular cover. 8 test pressings should be made. Test
pressings will be made as usual with a special cover...
WC13
- THE NIGHT STALKERS : "Demo 2011 +
bonus" 7 inch
The NIGHT STALKERS come from Brest, France. This new band made a very great sensation with
their 7-songs demo recorded during the year 2010... AWESOME !!
They play hardcore punk the way it should be : fast, raw and with a lot
of provocation !! Their music sounds like early DISCHORD records' releases and
JERRY'S KIDS on the compilation "This is Boston not L.A."... you can
hear that the main influence is US hardcore punk scene from the early 80's...
WHO CARES? records puts their 2011
demo on a 7" vinyl, with as bonus an unreleased song ("Stabbed in the
mouth") specially recorded for the vinyl release...
Limited to 300 hand numbered copies as usual : 50 first on limited cover
and black vinyl, 250 next on regular cover and red vinyl. 5 test pressings will
be made, each one with a different snotty cover drawn by the band itself !!
