snifter

snifter - mixed shit 1994 - 1996 tape side b
snifter - mixed shit 1994 - 1996 tape side a
snifter is some raw heavy crust, i love this band. i got this tape from catchphraze, i have seen it
in other distros in czech rep or croatia or poland, not sure where it came out originally, i think the original had a different insert so if you have the european version please scan the insert, the catchphraze insert gets a bit off on the tracklist toward the end but i dont know if i corrected it.
any way comment with some info, scans and a good review of snifter.

makara positive negative detestation remains of the day

makara - 1997 - st 7'' cupertino,ca,usa
i dont have the insert that goes with this, if you can scan it andsend it my may i will be happy. i ripped it on 33rpm, it sounds good to me but i could be wrong, this band plays hxc punk mixed iwth melody and newschool hc elements.
instead of leaving a comment you should write your own review. i am bad at these.

positive negative got kaaos and riistetyt members doing 90s style crusty punk, fast hard and good lyrics.

the brat from east l.a.

the brat was a band from east l.a. who play midpaced melodic punk sometimes going into hardcore territory, very inovative for the time, i first heard em while tape trading with the great katz, we were discussing bands with girls in them and he put the brat on the tape and i fell in love and asked him for more info and included a little history in my first zine, there wasn't much knowledge to be found since they were shortlived but they got back together a few years ago and a cd is being released with their lp and unreleased stuff.
ill post the lp someday, i still only got it on the tape katz made me and a photocopy of a poloroid for the cover art.
heres a lowrider issue they got an interview in.

apatia no rash suffer lost cherrees

apatia no - 2001 venezuela - rash (guadalupe,n.l.,mexico) split 7'
both bands do political hc punk

suffer - 1998 - st(forestofspears)7'' bradford,uk
this one says forest of spears on the inside so i called it that but don;t know if its the real title.
fast crusty hc from ex health hazard

suffer - 1995 - st (onestepcloser)7'' bradford,uk
one step closer is the first song but i think its st anyway here you go with political personal thoughtful hardcore thrash.

lost cherrees - 2003 - another bite of the cherrees 7''
this is the first release when they got back together, the label was new too and seemed to be gearing up a great schedule of releases but i dont know what happened to it soon after, i waited for this to come out and even got the limited edition with transparancy covers, dont know what the regular version looks like, the music is but slicker streetpunkish but still melodic and catchy, lost cherrees all the way. i hope they are still active, i am not too up to date.
