GEWAPEND BETON – 2008 UK TOUR
The embryo punks are coming! A blazing mix of old European hardcore, UK '82 punk, pogo-punk and US 80s hardcore punk. Influenced by the like of Poison Idea, Partisans, Black Flag, Zero boys, Discharge, The Varukers, Bad Brains, Jesus and the Gospelfuckers, Agent Orange (nl) etc. .....but where that's usually just embarrassing name-dropping with most bands, they actually totally pull it of.... Stachel recently released their LP on his great HATE RECORDS label (other releases include: SKITKIDS/NIGHTMARE, BOMBENALARM, FRAMTID, SEEIN'RED etc.) and described it as a “great mix of pogo punk and old US/UK hardcore. This band is intense, powerful, has passion and fun too, so nothing will stop them!' - which totally sums it up!! Punk for the punks. Have a listen here: – myspace.com/embryopunx and msg me if you can help with a gig!

I have a few copies of the STAATHAAT lp left
"Members of SEEIN’RED, LÄRM, BETERCORE, KRIEGSTANZ
etc. combine the intensely negative vibes of Dystopia, the
crushing black-hole heaviness of Corrupted & the raging hardcore attack of His Hero Is Gone into a no punches pulled all
out political attack of pure raw punk anger, blazing hardcore
d-beat rage and harsh crushing sludge despair. Comes in beautiful
hand screenprinted packaging." Quite.
Again, if you live in the UK – this is how you can get a copy (all
prices in UK pounds)

I also found some more copies of the KRIEGSTANZ 10"
(have a listen here:kriegstanz) so if you still need this
give me a shout. It's great dark d-beat/hardcore in the vein of His
Hero Is Gone and Wolfbrigade. Members are/were also involved in
Seein'red, Larm, Staathaat, Betercore, Barnhouse Effect and many more...

Cool, the thing is just that we..re not getting the records yet since it..s been remastered once and don..t know when it..s going to get out, I also think it..s better if you trade or get records from Steve since he..s releasing it as well, also the Project Hopeless new LP is available from him so write him. cheers / OSkar
The council proposes to ban dogs from ALL Brighton & Hove's beaches from April to September and bring in new dog restrictions on many other of Brighton & Hove's open spaces.
Hi Ralf, thanks alot. I thought Staathaat were incredible too... so much emotion! I would love to put you guys on in Newport or Cardiff, perhaps with The Keep the next time you tour. I forgot to take any State Run 12"s, and also forgot to buy a copy of your LP. If you still fancy trading a few copies, send me an email: staterunrecords@gmail.com. We'd love to play Brighton some time! Take care, Jon.
