Aus-Rotten - Fuck Nazi Sympathy

Okay, first download post of the decade. Congrats on me. Not only is this the first post of the decade, but it's also the first Crust Punk post I've ever done. Yeah, recently I've been getting into some Crust stuff, exploring other areas of music per say. Not only is it the first Crust/Decade post, but it's also the first post that I'm doing without breaking any laws! Yeah, when Aus-Rotten released this infamous EP back in 1994 on Havoc Records, they actually wrote "Fuck Copyright Aus-Rotten" on the back.


Tracklist:

1. Tuesday, May 18th, 1993
2. Vietnam is Back '94
3. Fuck Nazi Sympathy
4. A.I.D.S.
5. Where Their Children Are

Mediafire


Oh yes, almost forgot. I'd like to give a shout out to Darlin' Grave of the Deathrock bands All Gone Dead, The Readership Hostile... and to Tony Havoc of Scarlet's Remains, who recently had a baby, named Scarlett, 4 days ago :D

Apologies for the near future

Apologies for all the Alternative music lovers and followers of sexinsecret but for the near future I [Brandon] will not be updating this site too frequently due to computer difficulties. The reasoning for this is because that my laptop, is currently having terrible problems with itself such as overheating and all that crap which prevents any uploading. However, if anyone is willing too, I'd be happy to allow someone else to temporarily run the blog and update posts. If anyone's interested, please send me a message, or leave a notification in the comments section.

Thanks

Brandon :)

40 Essential Alternative Albums of the 00's

Okay, that decade went by sooner then we realized! I think it'd be great to look at the great Alternative musical artifacts of the decade.
