HUSKER DÜ
New Day Rising
SST Records
I don't care if you like hardcore, 1
don't care if you like heavy metal, I
don't care what you like-this album
will get you...
Hüsker Dü, the talented wild men
from Minneapolis, have cut-topped
all their records with this one. Being
a fan of the Hüskers since day one,1
can definitely say that this is their
best yet. It's better than Metal Cir-
cus, better than Land Speed Re-
cord, better than Zen Arcade, better
than...ah, hell...
Now that I've got all the con-
gratulatory statements out of the
way, this Lp. is Hüsker Dü refined
and distilled, not unlike fine whiskey,
to a very fine but biting statement.
Fifteen songs full of blazing (not the
cliche "blazing" but actual burn yer
ears off stuff) guitars, anguished
vocals and bashing drums plus
enough intelligence to avoid a mind-
less bash-fest
Power plus acoustics on "Celeb
rated Summer and "Girl Who Lives
On Heaven Hill" are the very best
and the most powerful. Other all-out
thrashers like "Whatcha Drinkin,"
and "If I Told You bring the band
back to the early days of non-stop
jamming with astounding speed.

Walke
Carlisle, PA is working on building
up their playlists and format. They
hope to style themselves after
WKDU, and are looking for new ma-
terial to play. Please send them any-
thing you think might be worth listen-
ing 10-they're hungry for new ma-
terial. Contact Tammy Frey, Station
Manager, WDCV, Dickinson Univer
sity, Carlisle, PA 17013...Also look-
ing for new stuff is WPSU in Penn
State. They are instituting a new
program called "Absolutely Live"
which will feature music and a live
interview of a band each Sunday
night, in addition to the regular
airplay they might receive. Contact
Joel Greenberg, WPSU, 304 Sparks
Building, University Park, PA 16802
about sending material, and also
about possibilities of shows in the
area... The Obsessed recently
played in Philadelphia and i
cemented in stone their reputation
as one of the best bands this side of
the Rockies. Their demo tape only
emphasizes the fact--and makes
you want to see them live all over
again! One song off the tape, "Con-
crete Cancer" will be featured on the
Metal Massacre VI album, due out
soon. If you're interested in contact-
ing the band write to Anne Barry,
1615 Q Street, NW, #506,
Washington, DC 20009 Live
Skull from New York recently had
the honor of opening up the New
York Times and finding out that their
release was considered one of the
best for 19841 About time that paper
got some sense into their head.
Now, if only they'd pay attention to
all the rest of the bands that deserve
attention...Rat at Rat R, also from
New York, are working on an album.
No word as of yet as to a release
date, but keep your ears open-if
it's anything like their live show it will
definitely be a must-own. Some of
you may be familiar with distribution
systems like the Lost Music Network
in California. Along the lines of that
there's Pollution Control, located in
scenic Cleveland, Ohio. P.C. is a
promotional distribution service to
radio stations and others with a
newsletter and mailing packages. If
you're in a band you may want to
consider sending them something
for a mention-or to be distributed.
If you're a radio person, writer or
whatnot you may want to get in
touch with them for their newsletter
which has valuable information on
contacts, releases and the like.
Write to Pennie or Mark, Pollution
Control, 1725 E. 115th Street,
Cleveland, Ohio 44106...And
speaking of the Lost Music Network,
which brought you Op Magazine
I'm grasping at the words to de-
scribe this-this is all I can say-get
it, listen, twitch around, go
nuts... album of the year? You bet.
pal sheee-it...

Murder in a Foreign Place
Alternative Tentacles Records
Jello Biafra sent me this album,
said to check it out, ya know. Well I
thought it was gonna be wham!
wham! wham, hardcore thrash, or
something. I had a headache, so I
set it aside for a bit. When I did hear
it, it wasn't what I thought it was at
all. It sounded like, the Dead Boys,
Sex Pistols and Los Olvidados
thrown together with a thundering
vengeance. This album is good,
check out the cut, "Boredom is the
reason." A needle guitar band.

cisco, CA 94121
This book shows lots of killer Hard
Core bands in a fashion that makes
you think you are really there. 3-D
yeah-hoo! Frozen moments of your
favorite rockers and insane crowd
thrashing, with flying fists and every-
thing. Only thing is, you look like a
dork when you look at the book be-
cause you have to wear those dumb
3-D red & blue glasses.

Four new songs from the guys
who only care about skateboarding
Brian finally got good enough on the
keyboards so they records "Charlie
Brown," one of their usual live-favor-
ites, along with the title song. "Rag-
ing Bull" and "1 Want," this disc puts
J.F.A. in the running for one of the
most improved bands around, even
if they are scattered around the wild
west.
(which is no longer), there's now Op-
tion Magazine carrying on the
work where Op left off. They are
looking for all sorts of stuff to fea-
ture-so drop a line to Richie Unter-
berger, Option Magazine, Sonic Op-
tions Network, PO Box 491034,
Los Angeles, CA 90049 Heavy
Metal fans take note: there's a whole
catalogue of releases available from
