The PLAGUE "Thumper!" CD
(Just 4 Fun Records, www.j4f.dk)
Dies hier ist die Diskographie-CD von THE PLAGUE aus den 80er Jahren ist.
Angefangen hatte diese Band 1982 unter den Namen DEFNICS und dann seit Mitte der
80er Jahre unter den Namen THE PLAGUE. Neben den DEAD BOYS und PERE UBU waren THE
PLAGUE zudem die einzige Band aus Cleveland, Ohio, die jemals auf Tour nach Europa
gekommen ist. Die 1987 erschienene "Just say no" 7" ist auch nach heutigem Standard
eine sehr geile Single, die damals sehr gut vom Maximum Rock..n..Roll besprochen
wurde. Zur Europa Tour Ende der 80er Jahre kam dann die "Unresting place" 7" raus,
die ebenfalls den guten alten Hardcore Stil beinhaltete, während alle anderen Bands
in den USA und Europa eher auf dem Metal-Trip waren. Aber nicht THE PLAGUE!!! Sie
hämmerten ihren Hardcore Sound einfach weiterhin raus. Schade, das diese Band nicht
die Anerkennung erhalten hat, die sie eigentlich verdient hätte. Wäre sie aus
Kalifornien oder Boston gewesen, würde THE PLAGUE heute wohl als eine DER Klassiker
Ami-HC Bands zählen. Hier auf dieser CD von JUST 4 FUN Records aus Schweden gibt es
insgesamt 3 Singles, eine LP und 6 unveröffentlichte Songs (die 1991 eine EP hätte
werden sollen) zu hören. Insgesamt 34 Songs auf über 70 Minuten. Große Klasse! Es
ist echt saucool endlich diese tollen alten Songs auf einer CD zu hören. Thumbs up!

Review from PLASTIC BOMB MAGAZINE
PLAGUE "Thumper!" CD (Just 4 Fun Records, www.j4f.dk) This is the Diskographie-CD from THE PLAGUE from the 80s. Starting had this band 1982 under the name DEFNICS and then since the mid-'80s under the name THE PLAGUE. Besides the DEAD BOYS PERE and UBU THE PLAGUE also were the only band from Cleveland, Ohio, to the ever trip to Europe has come. The 1987 published "Just say no" 7 "is the current standard is a very hot single, which was very good, Maximum Rock'n'Roll was discussed. Order to tour Europe at the end of the'80s came the" Unresting place "7" out, which are also the good old Hardcore style included, while all the other bands in the United States and Europe more on the metal strip. But not THE PLAGUE! They hämmerten their hardcore sound just continue out. Schade, the band not received the recognition that they deserved. Had they been California or Boston, THE PLAGUE today would probably be considered one of THE classic Ami-HC bands count. Here on this CD JUST 4 FUN Records from Sweden, there are a total of 3 singles, LP and 6 unreleased songs (the 1991 an EP would be) to hear. A total of 34 songs over 70 minutes. Large class! It is really saucool finally these great old songs on a CD to hear. Thumbs up! Helge
JUST 4 FUN RECORDS is a Swedish indiependent recordlabel !!
The label started as PUNISH TAPES back in 1985 ! We released mainly compilation cassettes with lots
of cool bands from the entire world ! Titles like " BEACH PARTY Comp. w/ LUDICHRIST, WRETCHED,
INSULTS, CRINGER, HERRAIDS, NO IDEA and more ! "FINSPÅNG CONTAINER PARTY" Comp. w/
WOUNDED KNEE, NO IDEA, REA RESPERATOR and SEVEN MINUTES OF NASUA ! "BUN PARTY"
Comp w/ RÖVSVETT, MOTTEK and WHITE FLAG ! It was a live recording from the legendary ULTRA
HUSET in Handen , Sweden ! Totally 10-15 cassettes was released !
In 1987 the label changed the name to PUNISH RECORDS ! Our first records was out , WHITE FLAG- Bleedin in SWEDEN 1986 6-song 7" EP. Live recording from Euro tour 1986 (Gävle show). Now 21 years
after will a CD be released with songs from both ULTRA HUSET and GÄVLE gigs…… 74 minutes of live music in a very LIMITED EDITION !
In 1991 the label changed the name to JUST 4 FUN ! A more DYS style name…and yes we still losing money
but love music……
In 2000-2001 the label decided it was time for a siesta… We did not release any records but sold stuff thru mail
if someone ask for them ! But in Jan. 2007 we decided it was time to get this shit back on the road ! PLAGUE-Thumper CD, STARK RAVING MAD CD ( both records have been waiting for a release date a very long time)
and a reissue of "BIGGER THAN GOD" - a tribute to POISON IDEA CD was released !!
Future plans are som reissues of some real CLASSIC Swedish PUNK/HARDCORE bands together with some

WHITE FLAG "S IS FOR SPACE-25th Anniversary Edition" 2 x 12" LP Hand Numbered Limited Edition of 1000 Colored Vinyl Second Disk Original inserts plus poster and flier Gasatanka Records JC-9052 Release Date: April 1, 2008
April 1, 2008 marks the street date for the 25th Anniversary re-issue of Southern California hard core stalwarts White Flag's first release, "S Is For Space", as a deluxe 2 LP vinyl only limited edition.
This 2 record set includes the long out of print original LP, (which was recorded and pressed in December of 1982, but not distributed until 1983), as well as a second vinyl album, pressed in random "mystery colors", featuring previously unreleased recordings of the band's second and third live gigs. Record two includes their famous first "real gig", supporting Black Flag, to an army of very angry skinheads in Hemet, California, August 31, 1982.
The deluxe packaging features a hand numbered silver foil stamped front cover, heavy duty 5mm spine sleeve, a 12" x 24" reproduction of the original 3' x 4' promotional poster, the original 1983 insert, and a copy of the rare "borrowed" Raymond Petibone art flier from the Black Flag support gig.
The band will be touring Europe in support of the release and White Flag's 25th Anniversary, beginning June 24, 2008, with fellow So Cal band ADOLESCENTS.
