Quote from: FreakAnimalFinland on June 13, 2012, 08:34:06 PMor Jumalan Ruoska 7"s on turntable, which belong to perhaps worst era of finn punk (late 80's), they still have at least some spirit, what contemporary bands were lacking.
Isn't this from 2001 or are the two bands with the same name? However, latest from Viimeinen Kolonna is shit, two first 12"'s yet good copy of Terveet Kädet. I just bought bunch of recent Finnish 7"'s, most of which I had not even heard of or had already forgotten. Molemminpuolinen Varma Tuho / Total Recall split was only one worth mentioning.
Looking back for last 12 months, Ydinperhe 12" and 7"'s by melodic anarcho band 1981 are the only punk records I have been listening to a lot. Konkurssi 7" and Ydintuho/Kylmä Sota -split are also worth mentioning and I hope Perikato will eventually do a record which delivers their live intensity.
Jumalan Ruoska 7" I was talking about is not the J. Nissinen related project, but catalogue number Rajaton 01 and from 1987. With 5 youngsters in line-up.

their singer turned to die hard antinazi.
It's probably shorter way from nazi to anti-nazi than from regular joe to either way... ? But also whatever the info circulated around is always potential of being result of daily smear campaign activity surrounding the scene full of back stabbing. I guess people are very interested to hear "who dropped out" and who is truer than the others. Also plenty of Jocke Carlsson images of him posing with non-white guys circulating proving how he has changed his ways.
White American Youth LP
(pre-Final Solution chicago RAC band) pretty intense works from the early 90's on R-O-R. Vocalist can't say in tune, but shouts ok. Great artworks and design what can't be found on rac records anymore...

The Wrongdoers "Helsinki" 12"mLP
featuring the media fame Renne (X-Factor, some reality tv shows, radio DJ, etc) in vocals. While drummer is known from Mistreat and wasn't guitarist from Brutal Skins, so obviously tabloids made big deal out of the band. Melodic oi with "no politics only tradition" type of approach. Themes are usual fight, pride, regional romatics. Since music is so melodic and well & tightly executed, it's shame vocals are not melodic, but just gruffy shouting. This Means War records has at least two 12"s done last year, but never heard Offensive Weapon.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1amXeGOJ8Ysound of sample is pretty crappy. Vinyl sounds much better.
I guess the warm weathers, sun shine, total summer brings one to mood to blast some "party music", so turntable has been on punk rotation almost exclusively for some time.
