Neuroosi - Rock Against Seija Isonsaari / Suutarinemännän kehtolaulu 7″ (Safety, NEUROOSI-01) 1979

Neuroosi* 7″ is maybe rarest Finnish punk record there is. It isn´t usually found in record catalogues, because it isn’t “officially” released at all. Only 10 test pressing copies exist (supposedly). Only A -side of the single is their own composition, b -side is a traditional Finnish song. The band was from Suomussalmi and as usually - this is their only release. Year was 1979.

Artists this time:
Osmo Räihälä (voc)
Pasi Keränen (solo guitar)
Mikko Keränen (guitar)
Pertti Teeriniemi (bass)
Olli Löytynoja (drums)

Tracks
Rock against Seija Isonsaari
Suutarinemannan Kehtolaulu

*Neuroosi is sometimes titled as Dolorex, reason unknown.

KAAOS - Totaalinen Kaaos (Propaganda Records) ‘82

Total CLASSIC finnish raw noise here. KAAOS was one of the most well known/ beloved bands from Finland and this is their first 7″ (after the split w/CADGERS). They put out a TON of great records up until about 2002 and had bout 2002 line-up changes over the years with Jakke being the only original/consistent member. This was recently re-released on German label HONIE (along with a bunch of other absolutely essential Finnish records) and it included not only this 7″ but comp tracks from the “Systeemi ei toimi” 7″ and the “Russia bombs finland” comp lp on Propaganda. Most of their records have stayed in print or been reissued. If you dig this 7″, check out the rest of their Great records. HERE is their official website with tons of info.
