Out of Germany on the Destiny
label, comes yet another compila-
tion Lp featuring bands from Italy.

the feel of what this Lp is all about
when you experience the speed
and chaos of D.R.I., Inferno,
Porno Patrol, Maniacs, M.D.C..
C.C.M., Zerstorte Jugend and
much more. Great chunky charges
of blazing excitement with indi-
vidual forces all bringing it together
to turn you average room into a
pyromaniac slaughterhouse as
those speakers thump out the
rhythms of maximum mayhem.

hold many diversifications in this
ten song Lp. Jumping about with
quick, shining rhythms, then slow-

ggaeish stylings of "Still Scream-
ing, you'll notice a definite metal
edge in the sound, but the toe tap-
ping beat still rages supreme. One
of the only Washington D.C. bands
from that original explosion that
turned up Minor Threat, Double
O, Faith, Void and all those jubilant
aggressors to still persist, and hap-
pily, Scream are still knocking out
the same energy. A very fine re-
lease, except of the faction that
there is under 30 minutes worth of
music on it, should be more! On
Dischord Records distributed
through Sixth International.
Frantic Italian mayhem erupts
one sonic lashing of 1000 m.p.h.

per-Azione Sempre Immutata
Fede Ep. Crazy vocal stylings over
gritting guitar peaks with tinty drum
smacks push the limits as this
beset grows and grows with ripping
chords just tearing the rhythms to
shreds. Intense chaos in the vein of
the wretched, yet continually
storming feverously with plenty of
feedback and wild distortion. This
seven inch smoker is full of bright,
abrasive combustion and will bring
smiles to lovers of zooming frenzy:

It states quite frankly on the front,
"Our Favorite Bands Mutilate Your
Favorite Songs." Bands like Scared
Straight, Stukas Over Bedrock,
Love Canal, S.W.A, I Repute and
wads more. Songs covered are:
"Iron Man," "Cherry Bomb," "It's a
Small World, Super Freak"
"Chinese Rocks," "100 Bottles of
Beer and more. I don't like it too
much, but I know all you little

hard. Believe me.
SCRATCH ACID
Scratch Acid
Rabid Records, P.O.B. 49263, Au-
stin, TX 78765
The best, most interesting sound-
ing. powerful, punchy, creative
album I've heard in, what seems
like, ages. A sound, sometimes
slightly close to Birthday Party, but
still unique enough in other aspects
to not make comparisons stick for
more than a moment. An eight song
Ep that is stupid not to have.
Spooky, delivering, fightedly fresh
in it's own sense. Worth having
