Kina – Troppo Lontano EP (Blu Bus Dischi, 1987)
Here is the last of my Kina EPs I want to share with you.
As I said in the posts depending on this band before, Kina brought power, beautiful melodies and somewhat like “real” songwriting together. And that in a way it felt right for me, even when I was a 17-yr-old hardcore-punker.
Troppo Lontano is a hit that offers unequalled oppertunities. The two others tracks from side b, are different, faster and don’t have such hit potential. But as always: Check out for yourself!
Terminus – same EP (TPPL, 1987)
This is their first. Terminus were (are?) a band from Scunthorpe, UK. I will place some more information about them here soon, but I’m too tired now, really. Their unique sound depended on Mark Richardson’s voice and their fantastic kaputt guitarsound. Unfortunately they’ve lost that sound more and more and after their first full-length Album there was just so little left of it, that for me it was not really Terminus anymore.
Anyway I was in touch with Mark at the end of the 1980s and he was such a nice guy to write with (he’s the one who introduced me to something called “cider”). Sadly we’ve lost contact about 1990.
Just so much for this time: Check these songs out! They are slightly morbide, have catchy melodies and I just love them.
This EP was in a package of records I swapped with a guy from France I do not remember. What I remember is that by hearing it the first time I didn’t like it. It was nothing special. But after listening to it three or four times….check it out for yourself.
