The Best of Brought To Life - 230

1. ANTI CIMEX - 'When The Innocent Die' - A-Records - Sweden - 1983
Straight for the throat on this one with the lead track from their blistering 2nd E.P. 'Raped Ass'.
2. HÜSKER DÜ - 'The Girl Who Lives On Heaven Hill' - SST LP - USA - 1985
From 'New Day Rising' - the era when I finally got to see 'em play live.
3. LEGAL WEAPON - 'Future Heat' Arsenal MLP- USA - 1982
I covered Side 2 of 'Death Of Innocence' a while back so now it's time for Side 1.
4. THE COCKNEY REJECTS - 'Sitting In A Cell' - EMI LP - UK - 1980
'Greatest Hits Vol.II' pretty much matched 'Vol.I'. Then came the wilderness years of terrible albums. It was over 20 years before they hit form again with 'Out Of The Gutter'.
5. N.O.T.A. - 'Number' - Self Released cassette - USA - 1983
One of the otherwise unreleased tracks from 'Live At The Crystal Pistol'. I'll revisit their studio stuff next time.
6. THE MISFITS - 'TV Casualty' - Demo - USA - 1978
Just when you thought I'd already blogged all the Misfits stuff. 'Christmas cards to which I never reply, my eyeballs absorb only blue filtered light'. From the 'Static Age' sessions.
7. LEGAL WEAPON - 'Hostility' - Arsenal MLP - USA - 1981
One from their first mini-album 'No Sorrow'.
8. ANTI CIMEX - 'Game Of The Arseholes' - Malign Massacre 7" - Sweden - 1984
And one from 3rd E.P. 'Wictims Of A Bomb Raid'.
9. THE COCKNEY REJECTS - 'We Can Do Anything' EMI LP - UK - 1980
Another track from 'Greatest Hits Vol.II' which was also a single.
10. LEGAL WEAPON - 'Pow Pow' Arsenal MLP- USA - 1981
Another from their debut mini-album.
11. N.O.T.A. - 'Propaganda Control' Self Released cassette - USA - 1983
This track from 'Live At The Crystal Pistol' was included on Maximum Rock 'n' Roll's 'Welcome To 1984' album.
12. THE MISFITS - 'Some Kinda Hate' - Demo - USA - 1978
Another track from the 'Static Age' sessions which finally got a CD release in '97.
13. THE COCKNEY REJECTS - 'We Are The Firm' Zonophone 7" - UK - 1980
Another mob chant single from the year of the Rejects.
14. LEGAL WEAPON - 'Waiting In Line' Arsenal MLP - USA - 1982
And another from Side 1 of 'Death Of Innocence'.
15. ANTI CIMEX - 'Time To ?' - Distraught MLP - Sweden - 1986
From their self-titled mini-album, continuing where 'Bomb Raid' left off. Got to see 'em live at Bensham Workmens Club where they were denied an encore as the club steward insisted it was time to close up.
16. N.O.T.A. - 'Disconnected' Self Released cassette - USA - 1983
Another unreleased track from 'Live At The Crystal Pistol'.
17. HÜSKER DÜ - 'Green Eyes' - SST LP - USA - 1985
This was one of the high points of 'Flip Your Wig'.
18. LEGAL WEAPON - 'Live My Way' Arsenal MLP- USA - 1981
A third track from their debut disc.
19. THE COCKNEY REJECTS - 'Subculture' EMI LP - UK - 1980
Another from ''Greatest Hits Vol.II'. Almost heavy metal, mind.
20. N.O.T.A. - 'Apathy' Self Released cassette - USA - 1983
A third unreleased track from 'Live At The Crystal Pistol'.
21. ANTI CIMEX -  'Cries Of Pain' A-Records - Sweden - 1983
Another brutal track from 'Raped Ass'.
22. LEGAL WEAPON - 'User' Arsenal MLP- USA - 1982
A third from Side 1 of 'Death Of Innocence'.
23. THE COCKNEY REJECTS - 'It's Alright' EMI LP - UK - 1980
'Greatest Hits Vol.II'. continues . . .
24. THE MISFITS - 'Teenagers From Mars' - Demo - USA - 1978
And the 'Static Age' version of one of my Misfits faves. 'Our cause is just and ancient, in this B film born invasion'.
25. LEGAL WEAPON - 'Death Of Innocence' Arsenal MLP- USA - 1982
The haunting title track from the album of the same name.
