The Best of Brought To Life - 186

1. L.S.D. - 'L.S.D.' - ADK 7" - Japan - 1984

We haven't had any gnarly Japanese stuff for a while, so enter L.S.D. This is actually two tracks rolled into one, but the first has a long title in Japanese characters hence I've not bothered to list it.  From their 'Destroy' Flexi E.P.

2. THE BOYS - 'I Call Your Name' - Nems LP - UK - 1977

Back to the excellent Boys eponymous debut album.

3. THE VOLUMATIX - 'The Day The Surf Stood Still / Day To Day' - Republic Recording 12" - USA - 1982

Another two tracks rolled into one, but this time some surf rock from their 'Volume One' E.P.

4. DIE KREUZEN - 'I'm Tired' - Touch And Go LP - USA - 1984

And back to their classic eponymous debut album.

5. SODOM - 'Frog' - Japanese cassette - Japan - 1984

Sodom's debut release was a bit of a muddy mess, but amongst the grinding metal dirges are some classy thrashers such as this one. 

6. TEENAGE & THE WILDLIFE - 'Colours' - Self-released 7" - UK - 1982

The superior flipside of sole single 'Get The Hell Outta Here'.

A second track from 'Die Kreuzen'.

8. THE BOYS - 'I Don't Care' - Nems LP - UK - 1977

Slightly quicker than their earlier single version, but not necessarily better.

9. THE BUZZCOCKS - 'Love Battery' - United Artists LP - UK - 1978

And while we're on debut albums, here's one from 'Another Music In A Different Kitchen'.
