A great cheesey zombie film, and a great cheesey soundtrack. A good mix of punk, psychobilly, metal rock and new wave, all from the mid 80s, so you know it's gonna rock, plus its full of movie dialogue, featuring some pretty iconic lines (tracks 14 and 20 in particular)... The Cramps and SSQ provide the best tracks on here, but Roky Erickson and The Damned follow not far behind. The rest is kinda fun and dumb, just like the film, and perfect for Halloween parties and the likes...

Dave Heroes Says: Tina, if you really loved me you'd let me eat your brains...

Homebrew
13: Dull & Duller
14: Why Don't You
15: Climax
Filter Thrust
16: Let Go
17: Penetration
18: Star Lover

This comp featured a whole bunch of bands that gigged with, and hung out a lot together. One of the best punk rock years of my life... It was put out by Dave from Homebrew, and one of his mates. Hulls very own Freaks Union kick things off, giving an early taste to their ever evolving sound. Punk rock, like early Rancid meets the Misfits... Speedurchin deliver the next tracks, Snuff, Ramones, melodic punk rock at hyper speed. Next we got Thirsk ska-punk legends The Write Offs, with their second line up (no Aaron on vox, Katy joined on sax). Mutt follow with their raw rough street punk, SLF meets the Blitz. Homebrew are next, more punk rock from these old but loveable punk rockers. Filter Thrust close the CD, and they're shit. Honestly. A great reminder of what the Thirsk/Harrogate/Hull/Leeds punk posse were sounding like back then...

Dave Heroes says: Its probably best to stop playing this after track 15... Other than that good times, great memories...

Guns N Wankers - Silly 7" (1994)

1: Guns N Wankers - Gillette
2: Guns N Wankers - Bing Bong
3: Solid Gold Hell - Valley Of Scorn
4: Chung - Flowers
5: David Kilgour - Fallaway

You might have Guns N Wankers 'Pop' & 'Hardcore' 7"s, and a few of you will have the 'Metal' 7", but this is a bit of a rare one. The 'Silly' 7" is actually just 2 Guns N Wankers tracks, plus 3 other bands doing a track each. G&Ws first one is a cover of the Gillette song (The best a man can get...), very much a Snuff track it is. Bing Bong is a punky blast, with a door bell - Silly really does some up both of their tracks, but both are good so who cares? The next track is by Solid Gold Hell, 'Valley of Scorn' is a noisey metal-ish number, and its a bit shit in all honesty. Chung are a bit better, they give us 'Flowers', which is a punky/indie pop track with sugar sweet female vocals. Finally we have David Kilgour with 'Fallaway' which is an acoustic indie pop song, ok if you like that kinda thing... Its worth it just to complete your Guns N Wankers collection, and Chung are pretty nice too...

Dave Heroes says: Guns N Wankers are ex-Snuff, so Snuff fans take note!

10: DOA - Concrete Beach
11: Jello Biafra & Keith Le Blanc - A Message From Our Sponsor

One of the greatest soundtracks ever, pity the film didnt really live up to much. Infact I dont think the film ever made a proper release? Mainly compiled from Canadian, and a few American bands, this (at least in my oppinion) doesnt have any weak tracks on it... DOA & Nomeansno provide some classic solid punk rock songs, and you'll no doubt know how much these bands rock already, but thrown in the mix we have a whole load of other tings... The Beatnigs have an industrial/hip hop vibe going on with their sound, and this song was later done by Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprasy 9 (sic?). I, Braineater are kinda new wave mixed with The Cramps, and has a great 80s feel to it. Gerry Hannah plays a beautiful acoustic number, he wrote this in prison after he tried blowing up a nuclear power plant or something... Art Bergman follows that with a nice 80s rock thing, a tad like tod Bruce Sprinsteen. Evan Johns provides a blues rock thing, kinda hard to describe, but its damn good... The Groovaholics are another fine rocking band, more chilled than the others... The album closes with a Jello Biafra giving a dictatorship/big brother style speech, with some scary atmosperic beats provided by Keith LeBlanc... "National Security is more important than Individual Rights, Sports broadcasts will proceed as scheduled... Shut Up! Be Happy! Obey All Orders without question"...
A great album, and one you know you want...

Dave Heroes says: I used to think Alternative Tentacles were pretty cool until I got told off for posting their stuff...

From Alt Tentacles: Hey, this soundtrack is still in print, we'd appreciate it if you'd take down the link
