Reviews & Opinions

FLEX! HARDCORE: Their first real demo tape, recorded in 1979. This is by no means perfect, and their ROIR tape is way better, but it’s just amazing to hear them play songs like “Pay to Cum” or “How Low can a Punk get” in a fully accomplished hardcore style - and this was recorded in 1979! They must have easily blown away ANY other punk band on this planet. No wonder people went crazy for this band; these songs have a passion and an energy most other bands of that era (or any era!) could only dream of. These are historic recordings, and definitely not only for fans or collectors.
