The Best of Brought To Life - 210

1. YOUTH BRIGADE - 'Treachery' - Better Youth Organization LP - USA - 1982
I agree with Frank over at Shotgun Solution - I prefer the earlier version of their 'Sound And Fury' album to the revamped issue the following year.

2. THE SOFT BOYS - 'The Pigworker' - Two Crabs Universal LP - UK - 1979
The Soft Boys have been called everything from psychedelic rock to prog-punk but let's face it, they were one of a kind and therefore impossible to pigeonhole. This is from their debut album 'A Can Of Bees'.

3. DISORDER - 'Today's World' - Disorder 7" - UK - 1981
There's no such guitar-noodling on Disorder records. This is the opening track from their debut 'Complete Disorder' E.P.

4. TYHJÄT PATTERIT - 'Tässä Ja Nyt' - Hilse-Levyt 7" - Finland - 1980
The opening track from their debut E.P.

5. LUNATIC FRINGE - 'Mail Order Rebels' - Resurrection 7" - UK - 1982
Back to Bristol for more punk rock madness, this time from Bear Hackenbush and Co. This is from their debut E.P. 'Who's In Control?' 

6. THE DESCENDENTS - 'Like The Way I Know' - Demo - USA - 1982
A rare out-take from the 'Milo Goes To College' sessions.

7. YPÖ-VIIS - 'Energia On A Ja O' - Self-released 7" - Finland - 1978
Another Finnish debut single.

8. ICON A.D. - 'You Fight To Kill (It's Not Your Will)' - Radical Change 7" - UK - 1982
The final track from their debut E.P. 'Don't Feed Us Shit'.

9. TIPI & MINISTERIT - 'Pillerit' - Outo Studio 7" - Finland - 1980
Another Finnish lo-fi effort from their sole E.P. 'Verta Rakastava Nainen'.

10. DISORDER - 'More Than Fights' - Disorder 7" - UK - 1981
The opening track from their second E.P. 'Distortion To Deafness'. 

11. YOUTH BRIGADE - 'Fight To Unite' - Better Youth Organization LP - USA - 1982
A second track from 'Sound And Fury'.

12. EPPU NORMAALI - 'Teen Sinusta Muusia' - Poko LP - Finland - 1978
Our 5th Finnish band is clearly the most accomplished musically but are they the best? You decide. From debut album 'Aknepop'.

13. THE PLUGZ - 'Infection' - Plug LP - USA - 1979
One from their debut album 'Electrify Me'.

14. MODERN WARFARE - 'One For All' - Invasion LP - USA - 1982
The opening track from the excellent 'American Youth Report' compilation.

15. THE SOFT BOYS - 'Fatman's Son' - Radar 7" - UK - 1978
The flipside of '(I Want To Be An) Anglepoise Lamp'.

16. TYHJÄT PATTERIT - '22' - Hilse-Levyt 7" - Finland - 1980
A second track from their debut E.P.

17. RHINO 39 - 'J. Alfred' - Invasion LP - USA - 1982
Another goodie from 'American Youth Report'.

18. DISORDER - 'Bullshit Everyone' - Disorder 7" - UK - 1983
From their fourth E.P. 'Mental Disorder'.

19. YOUTH BRIGADE - 'Boys In The Brigade' - Better Youth Organization LP - USA - 1982
A third track from 'Sound And Fury'.

20. JIMI LA LUMIA &THE PSYCHOTIC FROGS - 'Eleanor Rigby' - Death 7" - USA - 1979
A typically tasteless rendition of the Beatles' classic from their 'Typically Tasteless' E.P.

21. EPPU NORMAALI - 'Kekkonen Rock' - Poko LP - Finland - 1978
A second track from 'Aknepop'.

22. THE SOFT BOYS - 'Return Of The Sacred Crab' - Two Crabs Universal LP - UK - 1979
A second track from 'A Can Of Bees'.

23. LUNATIC FRINGE - 'Curse Of The Bog People' - C.O.R. 7" - UK - 1984
The stand-out track from second E.P. 'Cringe With The Fringe'.

24. DISORDER - 'Life' - Disorder 12" - UK - 1982
My favourite track from third E.P. 'Perdition'. Live from UK/DK here.
