No Core Tape - Various Artists

Four very fast and forceful thrash bands from North Carolina: COLCOR sounds like a wild thrashed-out Meatmen. NO LABELS is ultrafast thrash like Minor Threat meets Husker Du. NO ROCK STARS sounds like Husker Du gone thrash. CORROSION OF CONFORMITY has a singer who sounds a lot like Henry of Black Flag, over hot ultraspeed thrash like Gang Green. Very intense stuff, even more remarkable from a place that didn't have a HC scene in 1981. Unlike a lot of bands that just lash out at safe targets like Reagan or nuclear war, these bands are characterized by sharp, biting lyrics that attack stupidity not only in society at large, but within the scene as well. No smug conformity from these guys.
