NOVEMBER 13TH - split with AK47, demo & compilation tracks!

allright folks! here we got all the missing stuff by NOVEMBER 13TH that you were searching for... first we got their first and only demo-tape from 2003. some songs were later re-recorded and released on their first lp. i think the demo was limited to 200 copies and was sold out short after it´s release.
after the demo they released a split 7´ with AK47 by OI FREE YOUTH PRODUCTIONS in the same year. i don´t think it´s still available anywhere. hearing that old songs you´ll recognized that this band improved a lot. their early stuff sounds much more like HIS HERO IS GONE or FROM ASHES RISE then their new lp for example, which sounds very unique.
i also added all their songs which were only released on different compilations: G18 (ex-squat in bremen) benefit cd, opre roma benefit cd and the dystopias demise a.l. benefit cd. there´s also a kind of "funny" cover version of PINK FLOYDs´ "the wall"...
so enjoy it!

KOSMONAUTENTRAUM - juri gagarin LP

BOSKOPS - the LPs

i think boskops are one of the well known bands from hannover. formed in 1982 their aggressive style was unique. the band consisted, in it´s first line-up, of members of BLITZKRIEG! in 1983 FROSTSCHUTZ released their first lp "sol 12".

in 1988 the band released the "fedia" lp by themselfes and split up soon after it´s release...

RECHARGE - the lps


i posted the split-singles a while ago. now here are all three lps for you.
the band started as a DISCHARGE cover-band with the name CHEMICAL MAZE in 1992.
in 1994 their first lp "silent screams" was released by AC RECORDS. 14 songs were recorded, but only ten are on the record. the other songs were released on several compilations. the lp was released in the us and japan by TRIBAL WAR. i think there will be a limited lp-repress out soon, as well as a cd-rerelease (containing a dvd) with several bonus-tracks called "more silent screams" on EPISTROPHY.

in 1996 EPISTROPHY released the "hamburg 42" lp. the band developed their style and stopped sounding like a total discharge-rip-off. on this record is one of the bands´ hits called "bullenterror". after the release the band toured in japan for two weeks.


in 1997 the third and last lp was released by EPISTROPHY. a tour through germany, austria, switzerland, poland followed. the band split up in 1998.
today some of the mebers play in AUDIO KOLLAPS.

FRANZ WITTICH - demo

another new band featuring (ex-) members of RECHARGE, SANITÄR, SUBSISTENCE & NOT REALLY. energetic hardcore-punk with zynical lyrics and strange keyboards... they have their own kind of humour... and that´s what i like about them... and they also have a lot of hits, e.g. "punk ist das geilste"...

they also have a myspace-profile with a lot of funny pictures - click

RECHARGE - the split singles

i guess this is one of the most "famous" punk/hardcore bands from hannover. started as a discharge-cover-band they tried to do their own stuff... and it exactly sounds that way...
the band excisted form 1992 to 1998, but you can still see a lot of punk-kids running around with their "bullenterror" t-shirt. and to be honest... i´ve one by myself...

the split with EXTINCT GOVERNMENT (japan) was released in 1997 on EPISTROPHY after their more or less catastrophic tour in japan.
in 1998 EPISTROPHY released another split 7 inch with EXTERNAL MENACE from livingston/uk. it contains one of the most "coolest" songs done by RECHARGE... "wasserwerferfahrer" lyrically a highlight to sing-along... harhar...

ROTZKOTZ - discography

another classic band from hannover. founded in 1977 it was one of the first punkbands in germany and they also had a deal with EMI later on, which ended quite chaotic...
now here´s the complete discography with all their stuff:

the debut lp "much funny" was released on HIPPOCRITE MUSIC in 1979 and this released was followed by the "kein problem" ep on "WELTREKORD" (i guess that´s the name of the label). in 1981 they released their second lp "farbenfroh & lebensfroh" on the hannover based NO FUN label. to me this is their best record.

musically they were more part of the NDW (neue deutsche welle) than of the punk-scene. but who cares?
to me definitly one of the most interesting bands from hannover.

in 1980 the released their first single "jung kaputt spart altersheime" on the NO FUN label. i think the title-track is the most known of them and you can still hear young punks screaming the lyrics in front of your local train-station.


in 1981 a full lenght album with the title "und dann macht es bumm" was released by NO FUN (cover at the top).
a single with the track "muskel" followed in 1982. on the b-side was the track "drama".

in 1987 the compilation tape "schatzgräber with a lot of live tracks rocorded at different shows was released by BEATOWN.

yes! another classic band from hannover. they started in 1979 and split up in 1982. they released the "keine zukunft" 7´ in 1981 on the NO NORDSTADT record label. 1000 copies were made and i think this one is really hard to get.

wixer from BLITZKRIEG started KLISCHEE and BOSKOPS later on and he´s still very proud of it...harhar... and still he sits in his rehearsal-room keeping on doin strange music... in his white cowboy-dress...weird...

the folder contains the tracks from the 7´, live tracks (incl. a HANS A PLAST cover of "rock n roll freitag") and some compilation tracks.

sorry. but i don´t have more information... no pictures...

the music is classic "deutschpunk" with typical lyrics... fuck cops, fuck the state, fuck yourself...

PHOSPHOR - discography

another very early punk-band. when they started the band they were kids and that´s how these records sound. very rough and not played well. nevertheless this band is essential, when talking about punk from hannover.

the band was founded in 1979 and a member played in DER MODERNE MANN later on...

CRETINS - same EP


CRETINS were one of the first bands i got to know from hannover. i first heard their track "samen im darm" on the "jung kaputt spart altersheime" compilation (nasty vinyl), which is also on this ep and was covert by DIE ÄRZTE, a well known german punkband from berlin, on their "1, 2, 3, 4 bullenschweine ep".

than band was founded in 1979 and was one of the first punkbands in hannover. in 1980 this ep was released by the local NO FUN RECORDS label and rereleased by G-FORCE RECORDS from hannover in 2006 as a 12 inch with several unreleased bonus-live-tracks.

they had some line-up changes during their history and changed their style until they finally split up in 1989. some of the members were active in KALTWETTERFRONT, BLUT & EISEN and ARISTOCATS.

in 2005 they decided to go on with CRETINS, but i have not heard anything of them... have a look at their homepage.

DOWNLOAD

BLUT & EISEN - schrei doch LP


BLUT & EISEN were one of the best early punkbands from hannover or maybe germany. their first lp "schrei doch" was/is quite different to all that other early german punk-stuff, because they had their unique style and they were very fast... not because they just wanted to be fast... they were able to play fast. the sound is really good for a record of that period.

on this record are so many excellent tracks. the lyrics were also different to the usual punk-lyrics... more cryptic.

this lp was released on one of the best and long-time-running labels in germany: WEIRD SYSTEM. it was first released in 1984, but it´s still available as a repress with the original cover artwork and inlay. so if you like it (i bet you will) than get it.

the band was founded in 1982 and split up in 1987. in 2002 they played one show at the 30th anniversary of the UJZ GLOCKSEE in hannover.

DESTRUCTION DERBY - demo tape

another inbreed band that existed from 2000 to 2001. they recorded only a demo-tape and played some shows. unfortunatly i never saw this band live.

the members played or still play in bands like: XAWARA, DISPLACED, MASCHINENFEST, NOVEMBER 13TH, CAVE CANEM... and all the other bands in this blog... harhar...

DOWNLOAD

CAVE CANEM - three bullets 7´

ok. the newest CAVE CANEM release. on this single are three songs. one song was on the demo-tape, but we re-recorded it... quite difficult to write something about the own music. i guess it´s still hardcore. the sound is much better than on the demo.

it was released in summer 2007 by EPISTROPHY and my label PAIN OF MIND. we made 500 copies for the start...

AUDIO KOLLAPS / WOLFBRIGADE - split 7´











i noticed this band when i went on a punk show in wunstorf (near hannover). i´ve had heard of them before and knew that some members where in RECHARGE before, but they did not sound the same. it´s more grindcore or death-metal... nevermind. everybody seems to know this band.

i think they´ve recorded a new record, but it seems ages ago that they played a show... some of them play in other bands: FRANZ WITTICH and MAGNA MORTALIS.

WOLFBRIGADE. i think i don´t have to loose too many words about this hardcore band from sweden. nearly everbodys knows them and loves them...

again this piece of vinyl was released by EPISTROPHY! why not do a epistrophy blog... harhar... because i´ll be send to court...

PROFESSOR - academizer EP

now something obscure... PROFESSOR... i don´t know much about this band.
this ep was the first release of EPISTROPHY, a hardcore/punk label from hannover. it was released as a single in 1993 and was rereleased as a 3´ CD by TUMULT RECORDS from san francisco/usa in 2004.

the music? something strange. a mix of grindcore and blackmetal... i don´t know anything about the lyrics but it seems that they deal with studying...

one of the members played in FEEDBACK RECYCLING, SHITLIST, BAZOOKA JOE, NUMBFIRE, BURNED OUT and HANS MARTIN SLAYER (slayer cover-band) later on.
