Napalm Death did for sure, are Septic Death still going? Good fooking band they were, Pushead's a cracking artist as well!

It's on Vertigo. Don't know if it's rare, the bloke on Romford market had loads of them, but that was about twenty years ago.

i like comps too, helps me find new bands to check out! for me, i think Flex Your Head, This Is Boston Not LA and a cool 70-tracker called 80s Hardcore Punk have been the most ground shattering for me, because they all (especially the last one) introduced me to a TON of north american bands i had never really listened to before, many of which have since become favorites.

Compilations ?? I love them, collected the more obscure cassette ones and released about 24 compilations on my oldddd record/tape label-cosmic bovine records (i rejected bouncing souls-still think they suck but damn still going strong). my stuff was primarily obscure and semi known chicago area and wisconsin stuff, think of a midwest version of bc tapes and thats kinda what i wanted to do. Discovered so many great bands nobody will ever know-so yeah i'm smarter than you! (kidding sor the most part).

Sometimes the more obscure the better.
