Singles 2017-2018

East Bay Working Class I saw tons of great bands in the 80s at places like The Mabhuy Gardens, Thw Farm, and Gilman Street Project.
Those bands had a sound and feeling that's hard to sum up--- they were Lo-Fi even thougb many were accomplished musicians,they were raw and crucial and provided a soundtrack for pissed off yourh who WERE going to be heard whether the system liked it or not----- sneak into the back entrance or kick in the door----- it didnt matter which.
Condor sounds snd feels like some of the great 80s hardcore and punk bands that shaped the Punk/ Hardcore landscape of today.
im not surprised-- this is a one man operation from the drummer of Rixe If you are into French Punk and Oi it is CRIMINAL not tp have this in your collection..

dhalgren riffs upon riffs upon riffs Favorite track: Chacun Pour Soi.

about

Maxime Smadja has held many positions of note in some of the more exceptional French underground groups of recent years. For instance, you might know him as the beastly beat keeper behind Paris Oi band RIXE or the song writer behind the ever so catchy BOSS but for those who have yet to be initiated this is CONDOR - a one man band and love letter of sorts to his homeland and the particular strain of Oi / Punk music that it started yielding well over three decades ago. Previously only available on a pair of scarcely pressed and circulated cassingles, Beach Impediment Records is ecstatic to further the circulation of these six songs on the vinyl format. Channeling the brightest moments of the classic compilation series "Chaos En France" (and really, anything else on the Chaos Productions label that's worth a damn) combined with an execution so precise and well crafted that it carries that undeniable trademark of Smadja's many other contributions to the genre of punk over his time in it due to it's attention to detail and adoration of quality. And as a special bonus this slab features an additional track that is exclusive to this release - a cover of "Vengeance" by the 80's Parisian Oi outfit D.E.M. Each record comes in a jacket featuring the stellar art of Beau Richie depicting what I'd assume must be a typical day in one of the abundant alleyways that weave through out the City of Lights, plus a killer 18" x 24" fold out poster insert. Be sure to catch CONDOR on tour this spring through out North America!

Can't listen w/o hearing Young Marble Giants, but a more nervous, taut take. All the tracks are great, but can't stop humming the title to myself. Josh Steichmann
