Early 1980's D.C. The majority of the bands it produced were straight edge hardcore. There were other bands that were doing their own thing, like the almighty Void, maybe Double-O, No Trend, and the fore-mentioned Malefice. But then there was United Mutation. These guys brought a whole new sound to hardcore. Starting in in 1981, their history of members is very long and confusing. To attempt to read about it, go here. Their first E.P. (released in 1983) was a Dischord split. If you haven't heard it, get it here. Later that year they recorded another demo which got them a track on the Bouncing Babies comp. Although they are under a different name(The Last Minute), I believe Mike Brown is still on vocals at this point. (Fill me in if I'm wrong!) The next year they went back to Inner Ear Studios to record the Rainbow Person E.P. "Infinite Regression" is on both the comp. and the second E.P. Both are different, but both are still great. Although the comp. track lacks the vicious vocals, the guitar is clean, crisp, and clear. Perhaps their best work ever, "Sensation Fix" was released on the Alive & Kicking 7" in 1985. This is pure psychedelic rock punk that's even got a saxophone as if it weren't already trippy enough. Enjoy!
Another one of my favorite "christian" punk bands. They weren't around for very long either, existing from about 1998-2000 or 2001. Great band with a great sound. They played alongside other bands like Officer Negative, Headnoise, The Discarded, & Youth in Submission. They self released this 7-song CD-R in '98 or '99. It's hard to believe it's already been about ten years! There's not a single bad song here. Each one is as good as the last, having that nice old school punk sound. Now like all other "christian" punk bands, they talk about christian stuff. But with such a harsh sounding voice, you can barely make out what the hell they're saying! That's one of the reasons why I like this so much. It's not polished or pampered punk, it's old school. It's sloppy, fierce, & direct in all the right places. I know most of you didn't grab that Crashdog album, but please get this one! You will not be disappointed! By the way, if anyone out there has any Youth in Submission, let me know! I can't find them anywhere. 
What's to say about these two great Midwest bands? If you haven't heard either, get with the times! Toxic Reasons was formed in Dayton, Ohio & the Zero Boys in Indianapolis, Indiana; both in 1979. Here we got a split of theirs released on Selfless Records. Above picture has more info on the recordings found here. Grab some more Toxic Reasons here, here, & here. Get some more Zero Boys here & here. Not gonna say too much more! Enjoy!
