DOOM decided to
go for the Discharge style when started rehearsing in
mid
'87. The newly
formed Peaceville asked them to contribute songs to the
first
Peaceville
release, the compilation "A Vile Peace" and DOOM with the
help of
Jim
Whitley (NAPALM DEATH and RIPCORD) recorded three songs of which
two
appeared on "A Vile Peace". That led to the recording of 21 songs for
the
album "WAR CRIMES (INHUMAN BEINGS)". The album was apparently rushed
but had
a certain rough charm. At this time the band gigged constantly in
the
UK,
building up a devoted following on the way. JOHN PEEL then became a
fan
and
asked the band to record two sessions for his BBC Radio One show,
which
were
subsequently released as a "Peel Session" album by Strange
Fruit
Records.
Then the split LP "BURY THE DEBT (NOT THE DEAD)"
(originally released
with
Swedish band NO SECURITY on one side on the
Peaceville label) and the
EP,
"POLICE BASTARD" were released. In 1989
Doom completed a lengthy
European
tour, had several line up changes,
reformed in 1992 with the original
line
up, toured Japan and recorded a
12" that was released on the Vinyl
Japan
label. This proved to be their
last recording. This CD is a collection
of 37
good quality brutal punk
songs that on average range from 1 to not more
than
2 ½ minutes. The
packaging is great, since it comes on a nice
digi-pack.
Nice release from a
band that I have not heard before and I was always
curious to do so, because
I have seen several bands wearing T-shirts
with
their logo in the
past.
