B: Black Candles

Hard Action - Dead Dogs 7"
Hear it here

Born of a need for serious rock action and heavily influenced by 1970s Detroit rock bands, Hard Action have captured a cranked-up burst of energy on this 7" single. Adding some punk rock in the mix and finishing it off with total electric guitar worship, this beast of a 7" will have you down on your knees before the raw power of rock 'n' roll. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

B: A Downright Cheat

Forced Kill - Hard Death 7"
Hear it here

Forced Kill represent, together with bands such as Speedtrap and Ranger, the kind of speed/thrash metal revival which leaves many of the original bands in the scene eating dust. After some serious cult fame gained with their two demo tapes (yes, released on actual cassettes), Forced Kill now present their first vinyl offering. A definite must for anyone into all things cool such as early Sodom, beer drinking, Slayer, or hellraising. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:
