Shit-Fi Mixtape #6
Printer-friendly version
Send by emailShit-Fi proudly presents a virtual mixtape of raw 80s hardcore punk from the Basque region. Teodoro Hernández compiled it as an actual cassette mixtape and gave it as a gift to some friends on his birthday. Teo has played in some of the best raw, anarchist hardcore bands of recent years, including OTAN, Infierno de Cobardes, Firmeza-10, and others.

Most of the bands on this tape are virtually lost to hardcore history outside Spain, but, as you'll hear, some deserve to be included among the highlights of European hardcore of the 80s. Autodefensa, Mierda Radioaktiva, Tortura Sistematika, and Delirium Tremens certainly produced world-class shit-fi hardcore, but even the less raw and lo-fi tracks herein are great. Just a couple months ago, La Vida Es Un Mus Discos from London released a Delirium Tremens 7" with recordings from 1984, one of which appears on this mixtape. Hopefully, additional vinyl releases that unearth the fertile history of Basque 80s hardcore will follow. I have separated the sides of the cassette into two mp3s, with the tracklisting above as Teo designed it.
