Subversives - Rarities - Comp, Tracks & EPs
the Subverives
Minneapolis MN - '95?-'02/'03?
Hard to find tracks by Minneapolis' mid 90's to early 00's skunk band, the Subversives.
They were one of the best of the mid-late 90's American streetpunk bands, blending UK82 & streetpunk aggression with oi music, catchy melodies and huge choruses. Sometimes thought of as America's answer to Oxymoron, but totally unique in their own right.
"No Slow... All Go!" comp. 1995
1. Be A Subvert 0:00
2. I Don't Wanna Know 2:21
"Tomorrow Belongs To No One" 12" EP 1996
3. Tomorrow Belongs To No One 5:53
4. Police Harassment 9:01
5. Urban Crisis 11:03
6. I Don't Wanna Know 13:30
7. Lab Rat 16:56
"Right To Riot" 7" 1998
8. Right To Riot 18:50
9. Scrapheap Youth 21:38
"Skins 'N' Pins" comp. 1998
10. It's A Con 24:05

Discocks - "Voice of Youth" ep & "Long Live Oi!" LP
the Discocks
japan - '9x?-'0x?
Everyone knows the Discocks - infectious, fun, high energy, oi-influenced pogo punk from Japan. You know how to click round on the internet, like you even need this post... but for the sad ones out there who never knew the joys of the Discocks or 90's japanese streetunk, you are in for a treat. If you don't like it then you're a soulless miserable fuck, and you don't appreciate butchered engrish oi funtime. They broke up i the early '00s and some members went on to form the Avoided (which is the name of a well established [in our region] Milwaukee hc-punk band at the time... we all got a little laugh out of that). Anyways, Discocks came back with the same name in the mid '00s, having turned into a uk82-esque/80s hc punk style outfit, which is a whole different ballgame...
"Voice of Youth" '94 ep - this ain't right but listen to it anyways
"Long Live Oi!" '97 LP - this and Oxymoron's material were some of the fucking BEST in this vein, from the 90's- stupid vocals/lyrics or not!

Fon Du Lac/Oshkosh WI - '02?-'06?
Here was an interesting band from small town Wisconsin. They played a few shows at my house in Milwaukee in the first few years. They were from the little cities of Fon Du Lac and/or Oshkosh, or the general area, fronted by a weird cool greaser guy but with a total casualties type streepunk sound and the band not being overly fashionable or giving 2 shits about image in general, and mixing it up with weird original songs thrown in the mix like "I wanna See You Naked". A lot of time people didn't know what to make of them, which is why i liked them, and they were down to earth. That and Johnny always had this little vintage suitcase thing with good whiskey and some vintage shot glasses and cocktail mixing kit type deal inside of it, that he'd share with me, that definitely didn't hurt. They were around in a sort of no-man's land time period, or at least it seemed so around here, for the general style of punk they played.
"Welcome to America" from their self released CD ep
"I Wanna See You Naked" live
here's some other songs from their myspace:
"Burnout"
