V/A We Can't Help It If We're From Florida 7" EP


Another one of my friend's collection. I know that this one has already been posted elsewhere but my friend told me that the rips he found are of atrocious quality. That's what you get from taking rips off soulseek.
The 'We Can't Help It If We're From Florida' comp. documents the Florida scene around 1983. It was released on Destroy Records, the label run by Roach Motel. Roach Motel did 2 classic 7"s.
Also Sector 4 did a 7" on Destroy Records in 1983.
Morbid Opera is an all-girl band I think. Also did a 7" on their own Sublapse label. This label also released the Gay Cowboys In Bondage 7".
Hated Youth is one of the better stuff here. Fast raging HC. Luckily Bob Suren of Sound Idea/Burrito Records (RIP) had contact with one of the ex-members and released a 7" and split LP of unreleased Hated Youth songs. All worth getting.
Not much known on Rat Cafeteria. No other recordings available.
Early Roach Motel has been put on CD.

1. Hated Youth - Hardcore Rules
2. Hated Youth - Ted Bundy
3. Hated Youth - Army Dad
4. Sector 4 - White House
5. Sector 4 - Plaid Spaceship

Disappointments - s/t 7"


Not to be confused with the 90's punkband. This one is the band from Muskegon, MI. The label states the bandname as Elvis Roy And The Disappointments. Think this 7" was released in 1987.
They were also the backing band of GG Allin when he played in Muskegon.
21 tracks of HC thrash with lots of changes. Elvis Roy blasts his lyrics at high velocity through the ultra-short songs.

Note: some tracks recorded as one rip as it was impossible to seperate them.

1. Better You Than Me
2. Scar Yourself
3. Drink It Away
4. Brainwashed
5. Possessed
6. Wanker
7. Rehash
8. Squared
9. Find A Job
10. The Woe
11. Trash Fever
12. Big Fat Boss Man
13. No Pot
14. P.U.P.
15. Putting It Off
16. Credit Due
17. Wishing Well
18. Did It Wrong
19. Next To Impossible
20. Hint To Move
21. Mama Done Told Me
