AI - Ain't No Slaves ep 2003

Maniac Burning Spirit Hardcore from Japan's AI, similar in sound and approach as Paintbox or Crude. Nice fat production makes this a stand out ep.

02 - Bullshit Confusion
03 - Cutthroat

F.Z.O - Den Felande Lanken 7" 1991

I don't know much about this band and only got this ep after a friend played it to me. Too me this has more of a finnish feel and sound than Swedish, with a hint to bands like Mellakka or Rattus. Similar style with a nice production. Well worth a listen. They also had some songs on Really Fast Volume 6.

02 - Harta Ater Gammal Ost
03 - Kryp Till Korset
04 - Sjals Sommar
05 - En Eller Ett
