Not a lot of releases from here, but still some goodies. Perhaps the best is the Spelling Mistakes EP, a fine mix of punk and powerpop. Much of the Dum Dum Boys (later the Henchmen) material is quite good, but maybe with just a bit too much rock included? The Features 7" EP, Johnnies, Proud Scum/ Terrorways and Toy Love releases are also quite worthwhile. The Marching Girls 7" is a powerpop gem. The AK79 compilation (the CD should be around) is well worth finding, and the Doobie Doo Disc and It's Bigger Than Both of Us comps also have a number of worthwhile tracks (along with some duds). For more serious listening the Axemen (who have a number of other releases I haven't heard), Nocturnal Projections and Pin Group are worth looking for.
