Combat Records S/D (Um, The Metal/Hardcore Label. I Think There Is A Dance Label Named Combat Too. But I Could Be Wrong About That)

Koch is relaunching Combat, but as I have so recently learned, they aren't reissuing old stuff. Which is sad. Maybe they will do it eventually. Anyway: Search Cause For Alarm by Agnostic Front. i bring it up cuz i wish i had a copy cuz i haven't heard it in years and i always liked it a bunch. and now i gotta put rufus to bed. so, give me your picks. when was the last time you heard a crumbsuckers record? wait, they were on combat, no? i don't even own any nuclear assault records anymore! what's wrong with me? okay, gotta go.

I think Wonderful by the Circle Jerks was on Combat, no?

Wonderful and also the much superior VI.

Relaunching this label is an utterly ridiculous gesture - Combat reflected something that was happening at street level, to use an unfortunate but accurate phrase. Combat's not as culturally looming as, say, Stax, but attempting to relaunch the former is rather like trying to do the same with the latter: doomed to be an in-name-only sort of gesture.

Of course I suppose with a very passionate staff there might be a totally glorious Second Age Of Combat thing here but y'know I kinda doubt it.
