V/A- Bored Teenagers Vol. 9 CD.  Holy hell 4 years in the making and Volume 9 in the classic Bored Teenagers series is finally done! For those not in the know, the Bored Teenagers series is similar to what the Americans have done with reissue comp's like Pebbles, Back From The Grave and the Killed By Death series. The only big difference is that the Bored Teenagers series is 100% legit and all the bands involved have an input in supplying the sleeve notes and rare photos etc.

First off is a band called THE CRABS that most people are aware of as they appeared on the killer FAREWELL TO THE ROXY album back in 1978 with their ultra catchy track “Lullabies Lie”. Sadly no further recordings were released as the band folded in 1978 and became the backing band for Max Splodge but little did we know, the band did record four studio tracks for the highly collectable LIGHTNING label and were scheduled for a release in March 1978. One thing led to another and the band never signed the contract and the tracks were shelved until now. The second band featurd is FU-2 from Southend. Their roots can be traced back to late ’77. After years and years of trying to track this band down after seeing some Youtube footage, we hit lucky and found the singer. He had moved so many times and to our astonishment, he still had in his possession the original 5 track master tape. The really interesting thing about these tracks is that all the recordings feature a certain lady who was made famous by appearing in the Sex Pistols film THE GREAT ROCK ‘N’ ROLL SWINDLE, Yes…. HELEN OF TROY. Her vocals are so unique. Next up is a band from Caterham in Surrey called NUFFIN’ who were mates with The Damned & Johnny Moped. Their claim to fame so to speak of is that they had Roger Bullen (aka Dee Generate) as their drummer before being head hunted by EATER. The next band are Norwich’s first Punk band THE TOADS. These tracks are the essence of what Punk is all about. No messing around… just straight in with 1234…….BANG!  Short, sweet and straight up punk!   18 tracks in all.  Import from the UK.
