Sieg Heil – "First Demo (Nazism)" and "Second Demo" (Violent Party Records) 1984



 Well, here's a novel idea. How's about I post music as featured in the radio show,like the one wot i just posted here! innit?

There's nothing like getting up the noses of the self-righteous, the indignantly politically correct,the 'Likers',or mr and mrs Standard Views,and their rotten children.
Somehow,It got filtered down to the furthest corners of the globe that British Punks wore swastika's and didn't care who knew it.They wrote humorous songs about the Holocaust,spent half their dole money on studs for their leather jackets,didn't like nuclear war,but basically, existed purely to upset as many people as they possibly could in the shortest possible time.
Sieg Heil from, Kyushu Japan, achieved all of this without one moments hesitation, or even Thought!? 
They had a song/thing, called "I Hate Crass" too.Such perfection.
Best not to think about things too much if you're discovering the elemental particles of music,in the rush to shit out the lowest common denominator of music,and/or even Taste....ugh!
'Taste', is a by-word for the kind of awful suffocating type of normal that stifles excitement,and the forward gears of discovery.Even if it means going back to move forward.
Tactical withdrawal was not a phrase that Hitler ever understood....thankfully,or we may have all been wearing Hugo Boss approved outfits for the last 70 odd years....very smart though....nice shiny boots? Or, failing that, for those of us who don't require factor fifty to go out in the sun or have a big nose,stripy pajamas and free accommodation in the east.
The European equivalent of Seig Heil, and also from another former Axis power, was Italy's "Hitler SS",who redefined the word Stoopid with their own special brand of unthinking punk rock.
In the race to reverse back to zero Italians were up there manning the fifth reverse gear of those one forward gear Italian Tanks,and flying the white flag in the face of all those open mouthed Italian Prog groups.
However, the Japanese were never renowned for their surrender habit.They jumped off cliffs with their children to certain death rather than capitulate to the invading normality of the west.I'm surprised they even gave up after being nuked twice.
Sieg Heil only manged two demo's,but i'm sure the constituent parts carried on in a similar vain,hiding out in the dense rain forest on one of those south pacific islands,Still attired in their studded leather jackets and torn jeans, thinking that the Punk Wars were still raging 50 years after we all gave up....sounds a lot like certain parts of rural France actually!?  
How 'Wrong' could one go?.....Sieg Heil are no far off 11 on the erroneous scale of wrong rock...so wrong its right.....and so terribly recorded as if a huge fizzing close-miked alka-seltzer was the guitarist,and the drums were recorded via an antique telephone like the ones seen in those Keystone Cops movies.Somehow,impossibly, the quality even manages to go down for the second Demo.This is a unique achievement,which in other more sedate waters would be bestowed the title of "Award Winning" in the sparsely inhabited field of lo-fidelity pop music.Especially for pop music as Unpopular as this.
Who invented Punk? Who Cares, is the correct answer;but listening to this it was most certainly NOT the fucking Ramones!
