Society Dog - Both 7"s and SF Underground Comp

I was recently turned on to the old Final Countdown radio show that terrorized the LA area on KXLU throughout the 80s. Host Adam Bomb himself posted his personal tapes of the show several years ago, and believe you me...it's FM gold!

While geeking out over an old punk radio show, I found out Bay Area punk band Society Dog had more than one release. I just knew them from their "Title Role" track on the SF Underground 2 compilation and singer Johnithin Christ's other band, Code of Honor. With much joy and fervor, I tracked down the band's two 7"s and now have them for you here.

Working Class People is very much a product of the time. It has that nostalgic 70s punk sound, but worth having in the collection. The band truly finds its footing on the follow-up EP, Off the Leash. The sound is more hardcore and the songs are extremely memorable. You'll be telling cops to fuck off in no time!

I've included the compilation, which has tracks by Spikes, Lewd, and Undead...as well as the killer Society Dog tune.

Look out now!!!

Vain - Demos / Old Tapes

I've always had this fascination with sleaze rock, and Vain were one of the best bands from the genre. They didn't hit like the LA bands from the time, partly due to their refusal to relocate from San Francisco. This gave them a bit of integrity in a scene that would castrate itself to get ahead.

This is just a collection of various demos from completely different sessions. The tapes didn't contain any information as to when they were recorded or where. So your guess is as good as mine. There is bootleg floating around just called Vain - Demos. This is NOT that and doesn't contain any of the same songs.

Fuck you.
