Godspeed Demo 1992

Listening to this now it sounds a little goofy to me but right around this time hardcore was dead to me and i was way more into Sabbath than Agnostic Front anymore, so i tried to do some kind of Metal Punk thing and this is what turned up... part on purpose and part accident. some cool metal riffs w/ some sort of snotty jello biafra / johnny rotten vox.... we were still trying to find out footing but the years that followed this demo were some of the best of my life... there was a 2nd demo that Atlantic records paid for and then a trip into Electric Lady studios for the Major Label debut... and tours w/ Sabbath and Dio... man, what a ride.... Anyway, i find this demo mildly amusing and pretty stupid and retarded but fun as hell.... we didn't know what we were doing and it shows but that was part of the fun. Ha ha ha!!!

Crucial Youth - Live WPRB jan. 7th 1987

Digging some more rare shits out of the basement boxes, here is the worlds starightest band Crucial Youth live on WPBR in Princeton NJ from January 7th 1987. I was never much of a fan of straight edge or youth crews or any of that postive force bullshit. We were always the old and ugly decay drunk and decay skins because i guess we were a little older than most "kids" back then and i never really got the whole sXe thing. Of course your straight man, your 14 years old.... Talk to me when you get hair on your balls..... Anyway, these dudes took the piss out of that whole scene. the funny thing is some people took this shit seriously!

God the world is full of stupid assholes....

And i will close with this....

Be straight
Don't be late
Bench your weight
And for gods sake, don't masterbate...

Halloween - Don't Metal With Evil Cassette 1984

This one goes out to my man Rat Bones who's bro was in this band! Not so much a demo as a cassette release, this thing is pretty rare either way. This is some ripping METAL from Detroit circa 1984! Kind of like early Motley Crue on steroids! Pretty sick stuff. I guess they were known for their horror type stage show. kind of WASP Vs. Twisted Sister via Alice Cooper but all VERY metal. Check out the vids below! I downloaded Side A & Side B in their entirety if you feel the need to break up the songs indiviually have at it.

Sarcasm - War Song Demo 1986 & Man of God Demo 1986

Do you remember NY in 1986? Pre Juliani... This is what NY was like then.... Fucking DIRTY, SCUMMY, AND DANGEROUS!
2 Ripping non PC demos outta NY circa 1986 from Sarcasm. Don't know what happened to these guys but these tapes are about as ripping as they get. Some really great crossover thrash-metal-hardcore moments here. Hardcore & Metal was never meant to be politically correct so don't get your panties in a bunch about some of these songs, as i am sure w/ a song called K.Y.M. (Kill Your Mom) there was tongue in cheeck w/ this shit. Anyway, this is the way i got the tape, w/ no cover. But i do know a cover exists but mine only came with the typed label, so if anyone has a proper cover for both of the demos PLEASE leave a comment and let me know if i can get a copy!

I'm sure someone in the NY scene could fill in the blanks and what happened to these guys and where, if anywhere the member went? I do know that Drummer Jimmy Williams would later sing for the greay NYHC band Maximum Penalty.

Edit: I was able to track down a prope cover for the War Song Demo.
