A short trip across the Atlantic to Canada with stop in Vancouver. There pressed the label Friends Records this nice compilation with eight bands, who had their first concerts and possibly 7Inches at the start, and said: “Hey! It’s time to make a record and wake wp the messed up society with new impulses, away from stupidity with fresh sounds.” And the result is a varied piece of punk/ska/synth rock. I’m always amazed why such good bands with really great songs shortly afterwards disappear from the scene, also here, lack of money, different kind of interests or other personal differences, who knows. Perhaps it is well so, it makes such rare slabs interesting and in today’s mp3 era accessible for everyone. So I guess you will like this stuff + enjoy the early 80s sound.
