body & the buildings / st / 1982

 body & the buildings - body and the buildings (tape 1982 Heute mc 82092 st)
from Altusried , Bayern this is I believe their second tape (the first is 1981).
The members should be Richy Richter (drums, vocals), Manfred Faltin (guitar, vocals) and Faller (bass) [maybe also Schorch Vorgessen but i'm not sure]. The sound is changed from the dull punk first tape, in better. This is one of the few german bands that's got an international sound...they sounds like an english or an american band. This tape's got a straight post-punk attitude. Minimal and emotional song structure on a solid bass-drum rhythm ground fixed with existentialism / asocial lyrics. Fresh post-punk, simple but straight!

seite A: 1. This is normal they say, 2. Keep you down
seite B: 1. Dance dance, 2. Another song, 3. Empty faces, 4. No Voices

you can find the tape over this holy-grail blog.

The tape is mostly punk. we have the cool skate-punker Angry Samoans with two tracks (that could be found also on their first lp), the Idaho punkers Spyke Haytrid, the whole 7'' of the Cracked Actor from NY and 4 furios hardcore songs by candian Suburban Menace.

Alongside these punkers  we have some legendary noise act: the nerd pranksters SMERSH with 3 songs (later or previously on 'Noise Ding Don'), amazing as usual, acid synth-punk, apocalypse of rhythm machine and distorted sounds. The SENSLESS HATE delight our ears with their delicate touch..ultra harsh noise rock...'Prophet of Doom' by BLIGHT is another proof of good acid punk with the right equalization of distorted sound. To close the tape...ATTRITION from uk...great industrial synthetized song.
