Black Flag - "Nervous Breakdown" E.P. (1979)

The Californian hardcore punk legends' first studio outing offers a brisk five-minute/four-song romp with a truckload of energy, despite the pre-Henry Rollins lineup.

For fans of Circle Jerks, Minor Threat & Dead Kennedys.

Thrust - "Mindless" (1990)

The sole full-length from this melodic hardcore/skate punk outfit from my adopted stomping ground of the Gold Coast. It's very well produced & executed & has a bit of a heavy metal edge to it at times too.

For fans of The Ramones, Bad Religion & Motorhead.
