CHAIN REACTION-Gabbie ep (Belfagor) 1985

Great band from Bari, Italy. All the trademarks for Italian h.c. exsist here- crazed shouting and screaming from the singer, barely in control drumming and guitar player(s) who think their fretboard heroics are boss.

Not alot is known about this band and I believe this is their only recorded output. Too bad, cuz they are one of many GREAT hardcore band to come from the boot in the early 80’s

Belfagor records also released CLASSIC records from C.C.M., DECLINO, I REFUSE IT and PUTRID FEVER. For a great site dedicated to early Italian hardcore check HERE.

very fast, wild and brutal stuff. I first heard it from the tape which I traded with my friend and I immediatelly fell into love with it. Crazy music a la sweden´s MOB 47. I think it was released in ´84 not in ´85
