The Senza Tregua comp from 1984 is one of the most searing examples of Italian hardcore dominance - ninety minutes from bands that changed the face of hardcore punk when they hit the international stage and bands who stayed (mostly) under the radar...labels like BCT reissued this (and other) masterpiece. and distributed it for $4ppd. That shit changed kids' lives. A few bucks would get you CHEETAH CHROME MOTHERFUCKERS and WARDOGS and STATO DI POLIZIA and poof! that stale by-the-numbers punk band your buddy is in...? Well that shit just didn't matter anymore. Enterruption and Schizophrenic put this on wax in the early 2000s, taking the choicest cuts and condensing to a single LP, but even though you can score that one on the cheap (and you should), the whole tomato is a thing of beauty. Even if it's (still) a motherfucker to edit.
I posted this back in 2011 - that DL link is long dead, but this source tape was in way nicer shape for anyone who fancies an upgrade. Also, I need a copy of the self titled JUGGERNAUT LP.
