REVULSION "The Only Revolution / All I Could See" 7" (nab002)

Second record, an amazing record by this band hailing from Norwich  Englang. Personally, I didn't first realise how great it was. It was the time of brutal hc-punk and Class War newspaper and they came with their melodic tunes and sensible & sensitive hippy stuff! It is a shame they broke up soon after the release of this 7". Nabate would have probably release a full lenght and it probably would've been a classic records. The playing, tunes, timing and recording are close to perfect. It is pure joy to listen back to this 7"! Thanks to this records I got to know a great friend from Croatia. He'd wrote to the band asking about thier record and they'd replied that I'd probably have some copies left. I did, it is a great record that didn't sell well. Only 1040 got pressed on 28/02/1991.
The scan of the sleeve doesnb't give a good idea of the color, it is brighter that what it looks, but strangely the paper and ink seems not scan-compatible.

Revulsion have also a track in "Anarcho punk vol 3-Anti-society" comp cd (Overground Records), a track from their early days in "We wont be your fucking poor"(Mortarhate) and in "Words worth shouting" (Radical Change) and "A Vile Peace"(Peaceville). There is also a demo tape. (from 7inchcrust blog) Thanks for the good job. I have this great "Consolidation" comp. 7" and completly forgot about it!

"They Ain't Seen Nothing Yet" 7" comp. (nab003)

A benefit compilation for the Poll-Tax prisoneers (for demonstrating against the tax or not having paid).
The Poll-Tax was a particulary vicious taxe introduced by Margaret Thatcher's government in the UK. Millionnaire living in mansion pays less in poll-tax than a low income family in a small house. No other modern democracy has ever introduced a tax that takes no acount to the ability to pay.
The London Poll-Tax Riot took place on march 31, 1990. Here you have a video all about it made by people of the Class War federation. Class War was an anarchist weekly newsheet intentionally provocative or illegal.

track list:
1. Mushroom Attack (nl) - Fuck Nazis (2:39)
2. Psycho Flowers (scot) - Disease Of Mankind (2:41)
3. Hiatus (b) - The Show Must Go On (1:58)
4. Private Jesus Detector (b) - Paralize Power (2:26)
5. Dreadful (scot) - Wind Of The Storm (3:14)

on the player: Dreadful "Wind Of The Storm"


It was released july 7 1991 at 1548 copies.

I think the DREADFUL song is probably one of the most bizarre tracks Nabate has ever released, not only because they mixed grind-core with reggae-dub. DREADFUL was a combo hailing from Glasgow and was famous for never rehearsing and I think we can hear it on the recording ;-b! Neverthless I think it was a good idea to do those punk/dub experimentations.

Obviously those tracks would get better with some mastering but here you have them as on the vynil:
