SEDICION - Extintos LP


A vicious hardcore punk LP from Guadalajara, Mexico circa '88. Along with bands like MASACRE 68 and ATOXXXICO, SEDICION was one of the most intense punk bands in Mexico in the late 80's/early 90's, and addressed social/political topics in their lyrics. The vocals are consistently huge and commanding, and the rhythm of the drums is always simple but compelling. I read somewhere that through connections with LA POLLA RECORDS, they toured Spain in the early 90's, and I doubt that touring abroad was common among Mexican punk bands at the time. 300 more copies of this scorcher were made a couple years ago by Bambam and Cryptas Records. If "Lideres" doesn't get you pumped, you need to check your punkness.

  1. A record I like so much, I own three of - both originals with cover variations, plus the BamBam version. The second LP is great, too, but the third is sort of disappointing.
