-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


From KILL FROM THE HEART:
"This band, whose name is pronounced "Why Die?", released one great single in 1983. The A Place In the Sun 7" was released by the band as Blood Bubble Records #1. Musically, this band had more in common with the tough skinhead sounds of Detroit and Boston than the lighthearted skatecore most of their Philly peers played. In songs like "Mad at the World," singer Jackal rips through lyrics like "Look into my eyes and see/I'm not normal you can believe/Savage fury, uncontrollable rage/I'm gonna put you in the grave."
One interesting thing about YDI is that although playing a genre of music often associated with sketchy racial politics, both Jackal and drummer Howard were black. In "Categorized," the lead track on Side B, Jackal barks "Prejudiced eyes look upon me/Judge me by sight, take away my rights/Not knowing what I'm like or what I can do/I'm stuck with a label till the day I die."

From MRR 1983:

"YDI continue to disply a real intense thrash attack on their first solo release. Stylistically, they don't break any new ground, but they've got a shitload fo raw power and supercharged energy. Some of the songs are straightforward and manic (like the great "Friends"), some have an alternating slow/fast structure (like "Out for Blood"), and a couple are slower (like "Another Day"). Pretty impressive".

-Jeff Bale (from Maximum Rock'n'Roll #12, March 1984)


 From FLEX!:

"Fast & brutal hardcore in the vein of the early Boston bands like Negative FX or SSD. If you don't need your hardcore sophisticated and complex, this is a great and powerful record. [8]  "

 Well, after 30 years of collecting Punk & Hardcore vinyl I never thought this day would come. After switching to CD in the 1990s and then to MP3 in the 2000s, I can't justify keeping my collection any longer so I offer it to you. I started collecting back in 1982 in the San Francisco Bay area where most of my records were purchased new. I moved to Florida in 1986 and still collected up unto the late 1990s. 

I have always treated my records with the most care. None of my original records are less then very good condition and most are in near mint condition. I did collect many used records over the years and also got many from friends that did not treat them so well. Those records will be described in detail as well.  All records will be shipped with a protective plastic sleeve, vinyl removed from cover to protect spine during shipping and 12 inch records will be packaged in a LP designed cardboard mailer. 7 inch records will be packaged in comparable cardboard packaging. Only the best for my old records!

 

Please check my other auctions for many other killer original hardcore and punk classics all this year!

Over 300 records from 1977-1999 will be up for auction until all sold.

My grading:

MINT (M): New in original un-opened packaging, perfect, never played and like new in every way. I probably won't have many of these since all were played at least once & covers moved around for decades.

NEAR MINT (NM): Opened and played very few times, only very minor visual imperfections. Super clean cover.

EXCELLENT (EX): Played lightly and well cared for, a few light scuffs. Cover may have a few creases or imperfections. Still a very clean record and cover.

VERY GOOD (VG): Has scuffs or light scratches and noticeable signs of heavier wear and handling. Cover may have more visible wear, small rips or small seam splits.

GOOD (G): Has many scuffs and scratches, signs of heavy wear and handling. Cover shows obvious marks, creases, rips, tape, seam splits or wear, labels ripped or written on. Basically not cared for. (these records were the ones I purchased used or received from friends).

+/-: If I have a hard time putting either record or cover into a solid grade.

I am happy to offer a refund where the item does not match my description.
