THE DEVIL IN MISS JONES - Hey Jesus 1993

In 1983, the band Billy & The Willies were founded and the members were Ricki & Mika (guitars), Mario (drums) and bassist, songwriter and singer Sonic. The Willies (the name was the product of a Pub evening) their musical heroes are the Butthole Surfers, enriched their Punk rock sound with every imaginable style. The lyrics were mostly all one little world in itself. They released three wonderful albums before in the beginning of the 90s, a dark shadow came on the band because guitarist Ricky died. The band could not and would no longer continue playing under the old band name, because its no longer the Willies as they were announced. They decided to go ahead and in 1991 they founded The Devil In Miss Jones, Sonic was now playing guitar, Andreas now plays the bass. Soon they released two EPs and a 10'' and in 1993 all three releases were pressed on CD via BeriBeri and received much praise. The Devil In Miss Jones is punkrock out of the garage and change the myths of the history of rock and punk excellent with their wild playin'. Live they are ecstatic & unforgettable! Where other greeting Satan degenerate as a pose, they live in the merciless world of illusion between heaven and hell, the proximity of noise and pop to the struggle between good and evil to others. "...it's time to see the real devil", the rest must happen within you.

BILLY & THE WILLIES - Cheese 1989

And on with a great band that is second to none and I'm sure many German followers agree with me. 1983 in Mönchengladbach were founded Billy & The Willies by Ricki & Mick A on guitars, Mario (drums) and bassist/songwriter and vocalist Sonic. The Willies (the name was the product of a pub night) whose musical role models included the Butthole Surfers enriched their punk sound with every imaginable rock style. The lyrics are very special, emotional, partly funny and each a little world. Since their records were also sold in the U.S. and a musician from Surfers took notice and offered them a collaboration. The band declined because they don't want face the stress of the suspend commercial success. In the early 90s, a dark shadow fell on the Willies when guitarist Ricki was killed. The band could, and did not want to continue playing under their old name because without him there were no more Willies. However, they decided to stay together and founded The Devil In Miss Jones (taken from an American porn movie) in 1991, now with Sonic on guitar and newcomer A on bass. Cheese is the third and last album, released via BeriBeri Records and is full with first-class songs, "Kangaroo", "Here Today Gone Tomorrow", "Ideal$", "Inbetween", "Weird Kind Of Place", "Good Man..." and the very nice emotional "Good Night" to name just a few, count among to the Best I have ever heard from German land. This is the CD release with seven bonus cuts, including the rare Charles EP plus three unpublished pieces. Now enjoy the sound from a good band in a bad world!

V/A - Bite It! 12'' 2006

Now a record, I think, which every collector's heart pumps faster (or not your fuckin' gits) and what I doesn't held often in my shaky hands. Six bands with six exclusive songs which were only published here. The 12'' is packaged in a special "shoppers"-board, this provided with beautiful colored on a silk screen cover and was limited to 200 copies. Musically we hear punkrock from four nations. Two of these sounds a little pop, and with Amos (Iranian descent - very interesting) is a small underground pop star right at the start. What bothers me, there's no any info or lyrics inside & that's make the whole box unkind again (yes, I'm very very critical and that makes me surly). Presumably the label Sounds Of Subterrania went out of money ... whatever. All in all, a successful whole and a nice idea. This is 100% sub-culture and I think that counts, maybe you like it :))

2.Try Let It Go - THE CARNATION
3.If I Was A Car - THE DEVIL IN MISS JONES

V/A - Trash On Delivery 1983

Bad news, my computer crashed yesterday and so there are no more freshly ripped records for the next time and I have to reorganize everything. It sucks, but it was inevitable. Having said that I want to make sure I keep posting and therefore an older rip with an excellent description: "The holy grail of bands who looked to conquer theses sleazy streets of London in the early '80s are contained in the almighty 1983 compilation Trash On Delivery. Not quite "third wave glam" (but if you like-y, be sure to check out Jook or The Radio Stars) or third Wave Punk (not quite the Anti-Nowhere League, but check out the UK Subs new threads! "Trash On Delivery" stands on it's own as something completely unique to itself. A snapshot into a brief space of time when the previous glories of '70s Glam Rock, Punk, & Heavy Metal met in perfect harmony for perhaps the 1st time. Twenty odd years later it remains a perfect sleaze punk record and a guaranteed blueprint for those who'd help further commercialize the scene later in the decade (see The Quireboys, Wolfsbane, Wildhearts, Tattooed Love Boys, & Soho Roses just to name a few.) 

The compilation, put together by Flicknife Records' Frenchy Gloder (also of The Genocides, whose scorcher "Private Hell" is included on the comp) features a hodge podge of classic gems ranging from crash and burn trash rawk of emerging scenesters like the awesome Marionette and The Babysitters to the then present day projects of Post-Punk era upper crusts like The Barracudas, The London Cowboys (Glen Matlock, Barry Jones, & Steve Dior) and ex-Swell Map Nikki Sudden (with his Bible Belt project). Add in some one off gems like Bad Detective's lost power pop classic "Favorite Record", Suffragette's "Do You Want My Love", and "I Heard The Devil" by Little Roosters frontman and future Eastenders TV Celeb, Garrie J. Lammin, as well as the first recorded release of an embryonic Dogs D'amour and Ray Zell cover art, and you've got one primo slab of proto Sleaze Punk! Reissue 1988 by the spanish label Aspa Records."
