Ear Goggles
1985: The year the Germans crashed the Thrash Party
No one gave them an invite. They hadn’t washed in weeks. Their fashions were out of date. But they came anyways. Scared most of the rest of us out of the backyard. They threw some horridly mixed cassette tape on the boom box they brought with them. Some Sony knock off. They hit play. What sounded like bastardized thrash versions of Venom and Iron Maiden riffs came forth from the speakers. Everything sounded tinny and distorted so it was kind of hard to make out exactly what was happening. The volume was way too high. All the cute girls left. Hair had to be washed. Jeans had to be pressed.
The few of us that stayed just kept drinking to make the oppressive din somewhat bearable. But you know what? They turned out to be great guys. They had brought this massive cooler of beer. And just started tossing cold ones to those of us who stayed. So we stayed some more. Free beer and all. And then the weirdest thing happened. By the sixth beer or so it started to sound good. Like really, really good. It was like beer goggles. But for your ears. Ear Goggles!!! We started laughing. Someone built a bonfire right on the deck. They were super fun. Easy to talk to. Not some pricks who cared at all about making it in the biz. Just some average blokes who loved the music. Loved it hard. Loved it fast. It was their religion. What they really cared about. Maybe the only thing they cared about. So there was purity to it all. To their vision. To their sound. And we became hooked. Converted. And now I haven’t washed in weeks. If you see my girlfriend, let her know I’m ok. Better than ok, actually. Now excuse me. I've got a party to crash. [First added to this chart: 12/13/2021]

Punk Metal II (1984)
They were desperate. Metal. Or the coalmines. So they made metal for the mines. Scrapping together a sound borrowed from whatever was around in underground metal in 1983. Venom. Discharge. And just across the border, Hellhammer. And created a blackened, opaque monstrosity that is rightly championed as a first wave black metal classic. They would later (successfully) jettison this sound for thrash, but their first EP is purely primitive and all the better for it.
One more thing. This is a very artistic, theatrical and even grandiose album. They totally had a flair. Perhaps they couldn't play so well at this point, but like the best punk rock, that doesn't stop them from putting on one hell of a show. Plus, this is one of the first tastes of Blast Beats! On the second track - "Sepulchral Voice." Again. Them just being creative with what they had. Energy & passion!
Another thing. Like a lot of the best hardcore from this period, there's a shitload of emotional pain & frustration. Like being trapped. But Angelripper's trying his damnedest to break out.
I consider this an essential extreme music release, right up there with Hellhammer. And after checking out Hellhammer's Satanic Rites, this is next place to go for underground punk metal! [First added to this chart: 06/20/2022]
