YES

Thanks to Ossi for finding this gem that has been on my wish list for some time now. Don't know shit about this band except that they appeared on the Noise Against The Machine compilation as well as the RRR 500 compilation of locked grooves This was released as a 7" with 88 songs in 1995. Power Violence, Grind, Noisecore, whatever you want to call it I don't give a fuck, and neither does this little blue record.

  1. They've (he?) have a few splits here and there. I believe Mikko Aspa was involved in this band.

    Am I wrong? (???)

  4. Don't think this is an Aspa affair. But I don't know for sure.

    you're looking for the actual, physical lock groove record, right?

  6. I actually have 2 copies of the RRR 500 because I am nerd. I buy them when I see them and have given a few away.

  7. Yesmeansyes is "the most hated band in Findland" They consist of Mr. Kessi - vocals, J.K. - strings, Mr. Kojo - drums, & Mikko Aspa - other sounds. They have released music on Aspa's power electronics label Freak Animal Records. Supposedly they have a full length album set for release.

  8. Again, I am wrong. Aspa is a busy man.

  12. anon-I said "among the best" not THE best......
    Minch is great, at a show a few years ago some dude came up to me at my distro table and just handed me a stack of 7"s and told me to take them for my distro. Turned out to be Jim of Minch/Nunslaughter and included was the Minch/Mammaracho (or whatever) split. great band.

  13. thats ok, sorry, too much coffee.. i like WORLD too, sorry again.

    yeah, Minch is great, Pile of Eggs too.

    but 7mon's "thrashbora", fuck man.. unbelievable.

    noisecore is something that must be "well done" if you get what i mean, i fuckin' hate these bedroom drum machine crap with absolutely no criativity..

    you guys should seek out an old brazilian band called exterminio brutal, total annihilation to the ears.
