Anti-Cimex - Fucked in Finland EP (1992)
Released around the time of Scandinavian Jawbreaker this is actually a pretty cool live recording of Anti-Cimex during their Lundberg guitar slinging era.Maybe it's just the raw way they are recorded, but the songs are much more potent here than how they appear on the last two full-lengths: Absolut Country of Sweden & Scandinavian Jawbreaker
To be fairly honest, chances are, Anti-Cimex were one of those bands better experienced in a live context rather than on record. Maybe us young'uns, as well as older folks too, fetishize the shitty records of the past. Maybe we want to connect with, or appreciate, the aesthetic so bad that we fool ourselves into thinking that this music is the shit...or maybe the records are fuckin' rad and I shouldn't read too much into it. Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.
Anyway, not much is different from the studio versions here. Only that the vocals sound particularly nasty (in a good way) and that the guitar and bass sound raw as fuck. Decent record, but not mindblowing.
