TOXOPLASMA "Demos 81/82" LP

The two Toxoplasma demo tapes from 1981 and 1982, which were released before the band's legendary first LP. In 1994/95 the label Get Happy! Parts of the two demos as limited singles, which sold out within a very short time and have been sought-after collectibles ever since.

Now finally all (!) Demo songs together on an LP, 7 pieces of the 81 tape and the 6 songs of the 82 tape, remastered in 2011 by singer Wally Walldorf in the band's own studio.
Toxoplasma is one of the most authentic and best German punk bands, which has been active for 30 years with two interruptions and continues to set standards to this day.
Both demos were recorded in the rehearsal room of the band in Neuwied and trace the way to the first LP, among others songs are already represented here in the original versions, which were later re-recorded for the LP, among them all-time hits like "Teenagefrust", "Pass you on", "S.O.S." and "Thank you".

Rough, impetuous and uncompromising German punk with political lyrics and a lot of anger in the belly, which was characteristic for an entire genre and is still unated today. This is the original, everything that came after it has to be measured by toxoplasma. A wonderful document of early German punk rock from a band that continues to this day consistently goes its way without taking the embarrassments of some other combos with it.
Master and artwork of "Demos 81/82" is by singer Wally Walldorf, the LP comes with text sheet and download code!
