 AVAILABLE RELEASES

 SO MUCH HATE

The first release on Norwegian Leather was the re-release of the SO MUCH HATE - "How We Feel" LP

The LP of the Oslo band originally came out in 1987 on X-PORT PLATER. The record looks like the original but the cover is black & white as the original artwork was colored afterwards. The lyric sheet is exactly like the original.

The first 1000 copies of the repress came with an 8-page-fanzine with old interviews and liner notes by long time friends of the band. If you mailorder this record directly from Norwegian Leather or HeartFirst, you can still get the fanzine. Note, the zine can push the record including packaging over the 500 gram limit.

 BANNLYST

The second and third releases on Norwegian Leather were LPs by the Molde hardcore punk band BANNLYST.

The "Diskografi" LP has their songs from the split tape with ANGOR WAT (Knall Tapes, 1984), their 7" songs (1985), "Terrorstyre" (from the "Nå Eller Aldri" 7" compilation) and "Louie Louie" from an early demo tape recording. A total of 24 songs in 44 minutes with some of the best 1980s hardcore punk that ever came out of Europe.

The "Live At Blitz" LP is a great soundboard live recording from 1992 when BANNLYST played at the 10th anniversary gig of the legendary BLITZ squat in Oslo.
