Superconductor - S/T 7"


Superconductors first 7" with Murderlizer and The Most Popular Man In The World. This one was really hard to get but worth it. Murderlizer is missing a few seconds from the beginning, sorry!

D.O.A. - Right To Be Wild 7"

 
 Pressed  on their own label as an instant response to the arrest of the Squamish 5 (which included Subhumans' bassist Gerry Hannah) for terrorism. Side B is a cover of Subhumans Fuck You. I remember sitting in my friend Jerry's basement and someone brought this and we listened to it over and over.

The Discords - S/T 7"


The Discords from Montreal were apparently a bunch of anglophone juvenile delinquents, some of them with fairly lengthy police records. They were called by some as undoubtedly the toughest Canadian punk band ever. This is a really nice 7" with kind of a punk/Oi sound.

D.O.A. - Something Better Change


What would Canadian Punk be without pioneers D.O.A. This is their first LP Something Better Change. I must have seen these guys at least 10 times and loved every show. This and many more D.O.A. albums are available on CD and Vinyl at Sudden Death Records and probably your local music shop so please buy it.

Hype - Life Is Hard ThenYou Die


Hype were from Ontario. I saw them play with a local band named Ratschlag opening for them. Don't remember much of the show but the album is a decent listen.
