03. This hand
04. Again today too
05. Spirit of 04
06. Dear you (Johann Pachelbel cover sort of..)
07. Strength of will

09. For oneself
10. Skinhead

Released by Bronze Fist in 2004.

A band you either love or hate and i can't get past them even if it's 10 years since they released this cd. All is not great but the few good songs are so awkward and experimental that once you're hooked you'll probably listen to once a week every following year. They use an organ in their songs to the point of cheer madness and every song is built up around a smaller supporting team singing their shits of. To hear a classic musicalpiece like Pachelbel's Canon sung by Asian skinheads using footballchants and piano is just damn near orgasmic (had it on my work-pod for 3 years now and still crack a smile everytime it shuffles it's way into my grey and boring weekdays).

Dear you (Johann Pachelbel)

Oi! from Japan

Tracklist:
01. Dead end factory job

A rougher and punkier sound than they usually have but just as good, especially the first track.

SSS/Oi! from Japan

01. Unfeeling blood
02. Can't be defeated

07. 暗れ暗れと唯
08. Knavish trick
09. 反逆となりて

Released by HG Fact in 1997.

Less known album but as good as most of the classic SSS records out there. The album is called 罪無人 or in western letters "Owarinaki Tatakai" which translates into Keep to protect, probably one of many reasons why it's not that known in the west. Hard samurai sound with heavy drums, intense guitars with a rock feeling to it and some great singalong anthems as choruses. Killer record in my oppinion.

04. Bull the dougs - Long live.....

A 12'' EP released through JM Records in 1988. A second volume was planned for release in 1989 but JM went broke and it never got released.

A political record with next to no political bands on it (with Bad Vultures being the exception). Humpty dumpty even went on to play crustish sounding punk later on. Anyway a superb compilation that most ignore because of it's nationalistic approach and a certain tattoo on the cover.

Humpty dumpty - Hill house

Tracklist:
01. Blood awake!
02. Keep your mind strong
03. Werewolf
04. Anthem
05. We assault you

Released by Vulture Rock in 2006.

This release is as simple as they come since Vulture only took the bands old demo from 1992 and pressed it, took an empty LP cover and glued a printed A5 with info on it. Still a wonderfull release and that song anthem is still killer even in this crappy demo-quality.
