CCPS Miscellany: Euthanasia - Above Reproach Beneath Contempt (1987)
We're still in the Edmonton way-back machine, thanks to Corey Hamilton. We know Euthanasia from the one track of theirs on the Writing on Stone compilation, so it's good to have a full release from these fine early goth punks.
Timing is a weird thing - guitarist Chris Boddy passed away earlier this month, a big loss to the Edmonton music scene. Together with his brother Cam and one-time Calgarian Marty Chatrin, the band's sound evokes Killing Joke and other darker political punk of its era.
Get Euthanized here.

They also had an EP titled "Living Heck" that I would love to get a digital copy of. Great band.
cool. bought this tape at a record shop in victori bc called "the underground" (down the steps) when i was young. it had a photocopy cover so i snagged it. first "punk" tape for me. hey, it wasn't radio music or tv music so i wanted to hear something different and i didn't get out much. an introduction to something different. then on to snfu. after that... more reflective musics, no more beer and pussy rock... thanks for the upload.
