TOTAL HATE

Very glad i scored this... It was a 'buy now' on eBay for a very small price for some reason i don't know of cause im pretty sure if it was up for bid the dude could of got a fair bit for it... when i received this demo and had a listen i was a bit suss about it being a 'demo' and thought it could of been some kind of bootleg cause the songs are the same recording as the 7" but i found out today that it is legit and basically the band had the s/t 7" + total hate recorded so they made these to sell until the record was ready as a kind of promo thing...


Total hate is not on the 7" but was recorded the same session and was only put on this tape and the 'Going Nowhere fast' discography CD which was accidentally listed it as "terror boys" on the back of the cd...

THANK FUCK IT'S FRIDAY

There is nothing better then coming home from work finding a heap of packages waiting for you.. It must be the week for test presses, this is the 3rd one i got this week and i still got 2 more on the way.. so far.

BLACK SS - Foreign Object - Test Press
Closer look the awesome art..
(definitely going to get this printed on a shirt)

Out of /45
The dude who i got it from also threw in a heap of 7"

cause i paid a fair bit for this + shipping was a prick as usual..
I ain't heard 3 of these bands before so ill have a listen
and put them up in another pose some other time.

KANGAROO RECORDS - Compilation 7"s
picked these up from Tommy Goodtimes mostly because they have AVO on them but KR puts out some pretty good hardcore and i was keen to check out the other stuff out on it..

Loved By Few... Hated By Most
Im pretty sure the AVO song on here
was only released on this compilation


Comes with a big poster


Other 7"

Another poster, this one is smaller tho
and on the other side of the lyrics insert


Last but not least John from Coffin Cut Records did me a trade for these for some other flyers and such.. Loose Screws poster and some normal/pre-order covers for the Demo 7" that should be out soon+ stickers and buttons.

FIST FIGHTS AND BROKEN GLASS!

Im probably the happiest man alive at the moment, iv never been so stoked while opening a package before.. iv been searching like a son of a bitch trying to get as much 86 Mentality records as i can cause as most of you know they are in the top 5 of my all time favorite bands and i do like to collect anything & everything from them bands that i can.. i got all of these from Alex Grave Mistake Records, he did me a bit of a deal on these cause they were the last ones he had left and i took them all. As much as i collect things and know i will never see it again, i gave the rejected version of the test press to my good mate kuhny cause he loves this band just as much as me maybe even more and i know he will appreciate it more then anyone i know and wont try sell it on ebay..

Apparently these tests presses of the s/t are the remastered versions on the 7".. either way im still stoked to own them.
