Tonight on EXD another unearthed demo from around these parts (Barrie) by B.S.L. Recorded in 1988 the second demo never really saw much circulation as the band was breaking up. They would go on to become Phallocracy and more recently the Groogies, but this unreleased demo shows the band’s roots of speed (a la HERESY / LARM / MDC). We will also be featuring some dep cuts from the Britain’s Burning comp. New international releases from Morocco (TAQBIR), Indonesia (ZAGOBART), Singapore (SIAL), and Chile (LUZ DE GAS). Lots of Canuck-core (COLD SHAKES, MISUSED, REAL SICKIES and the CHOICE FEW) and dad-core (THE ACCUSED A.D./ DOA) and re-issues (TOXIC WASTE / PROTEX). Download the show here.

Demo Feature
BSL were a band from Barrie back in 1986-1988. The three letter acronym was adaptable and the band had made a few stickers to suggest what the three letters could stand for. Boys from Scuttlebutt Lodge was the one that I have heard repeated back to me fairly often. They recorded a second demo in 1988 that really didn’t get much fan fare but three songs from their first demo made it to a compilation that I put out in 1988 called “Ontario: Yours to Discover”. We’re going to hear the eight song demo tonight.

B.S.L. - Canada, Home of Candians, and O (Self-Released)
B.S.L. - Everything’s Just Fine (Self-Released)
B.S.L. - Growing in Size (Self-Released)
B.S.L. - Guilt (Self-Released)
B.S.L. - Human Prey (Self-Released)
B.S.L. - Patriotic Worship (Self-Released)
B.S.L. - Pumping Gas (Self-Released)
B.S.L. - You’re a Man (Self-Released)

The pride of Simcoe County. Probably not. But members of this band would go on to form Phallocracy and members of that band would go off in direction forming Career Suicide and the Groogies to name a few.

We are going to end with some more Canadian releases

FULLY CRAZED - Curb Session (Cursed Blessings)
PRESSON - Dying Light (Self-Released)
PUNITIVE DAMAGE - Baited (Convulse)
BOOTLICKER - State of Fever (Neon Taste / Static Shock)
