This recording is part of a myth spread by the internet. Some tape trader took the Napalm Death recording from the 'Bullshit Detector Volume 3' LP and added 3 songs by another band...
Napalm Death never made a demo called 'Punk is a Rotting Corpse' (in 1982 or any other year)...And the pre-Napalm Death band Civil Defence never made any recordings at all...
I am one of the 2 founder members of Napalm Death: I hope this helps to clear up any confusion.
This isn't Napalm Death. This is Civil Defense which is a band that is in no way related to Napalm Death. Someone made a bootleg of four songs, one of which was "Crucifixion of Possessions", a song Napalm Death contributed to a compilation and the other three songs are by Civil Defense. No one knows who made the bootleg, or why.
Nah, it isn't. This is much too clear to be early Napalm Death. The Hatred Surge demo was supposedly after this one and it had a MUCH, MUCH shittier sound. Get your facts straight dude.
Okay, this has been bothering me for awhile... This is NOT a Napalm Death song. Punk Is A Rotting Corpse was a SONG from their first demo, not their first demo. The 4-track demo circulating under that name is the version of Crucifixion from taken from Bullshit Detector Vol. 3 (currently the only heard pre Hatred Surge song), while the other 3 are by some unknown hardcore band.
SO...does ANYONE know who the fuck this band is??? I fucking love this song, and have been pining over it for years...
What I mean is that Punk Is A Rotting Corpse is frequently thought to be their first demo, when the only time they ever used that title was for a song on their actual first demo, which I think was Halloween.
According to discussions on the Southern Records forum, the band that does the three (or four?) other songs on the fake demo is called "Civil Defense".
Thanks so much, looks like that's them. You have no idea how long I've been wondering that, haha... Now if I could only find some actual material by them...

Does anyone know who this band is? Cause this song rocks. I always knew it wasn't ND but it rules.
megafonzie666 2 years ago
This is ND but it's from their anarcho-punk years, ofcourse they evolved to grindcore later.

That's what I thought too, but there was only one song on the "Punk is a rotting corpse" album that was truley them.
megafonzie666 2 years ago

I thought the recording was way too clean for them in their early years.
