Guilt Parade "A Rational Fear of Clowns" tape

This was Guilt Parade's first tape and it was pretty amazing. The band was from fredericton, New Brunswick and featured Jeff Beardall on guitars and vocals, Richard Bird on bass, and Todd Merrill on drums. Tim Yohannon from MRR reviewed it as follows "Fine job. Really ripping hardcore with above-average lyrics and playing. Somewhat of a DC sound but not generic at all. Heartening effect. Keep it up!" (from Maximum Rocknroll #35, April 1986).

The songs on this release are:

1. Hey You
2. Dear Dr. Wallace
3. Fuck it all
4. Fuck Off America
5. Quiet Man
6. Corporate Cog
7. Futility
8. Plastic
9. Cryptic Ending

Enigmas "Strangely Wild" 12"

The Enigmas were from Vancouver and had a 60's air to thier garage punk sound. The band featured Paul McKenzie on vocals and sax, Mike Davies on guitar and vocals, Brian Olinek on bass, and Randy Bowman on drums. They released this 12" back in 1985 on their own label Zulu Records which I think had something to do with Scratch Records. The lyric sheet has a little foot instruction on how to do the "Windshield Wiper", which was pretty cool. Unfortunately I don't think the dance caught on. The songs on here are:

1. Flying Dutchman

2. Windhield Wiper

3. Monsters in the Basement

4. A Bit Too Far

5. Strangely Wild

6. Rush Hour to Russia
