Flyer - The Young Lions

The Young Lions play with the Subverts from Chicago. This looks like it is a poster for multiple cities. Not sure of the date or locales.

Young Lions "Freedom? What Freedom?" cassette

This looks to be the Young Lions second cassette release. The recording was also in 1982 and was recorded at Accusonic Sound. The band was know a three piece and would remain a three piece featuring Mike McCurdy on guitars and vocals, Chris Genest on bass and vocals, and Steve Kuzell on drums. This release looked to be a four song cassette featuring the songs:

1. Young Amerika

2. National Security

3. Royal Killers

4. Pray for Julie

Dead End - Youth Now cassette

Dead End were part of the first wave of hardcore bands in Toronto. They had two full length cassette releases. "Youth Now" was the first of them put out on Brain taylor's label N.R.K. The catalogue number is NRK 004. Tim Yohannon of MRR described the tape as "Another mostly mid-tempo punk band from Canada. Dead End have more of a skunk sound.

1. Youth Now
2. Don't Talk Politics
3. Rock vs. Racism
4. No Rights
