Dementlieu is, or rather will be, a record label. For the moment all we have to offer is some leftover stock from various labels. After that we'll be releasing albums by Rustbuckit (ex-Black Market Baby, Iron Cross, Vile Geezers and pre-rehab), the god-like Limp Richerds (pre-Dave Middleton Experience, Mudhoney, Green River, Thrownups, and Swallow), and maybe a couple other groups. Keep yer eyes peeled.

I have a number of punk LPs and CDs available, mostly from old school DC artists--geezerpunk represent! These are all new and unplayed.

Early industrial punk from Seattle, WA circa 1981. When I say industrial, I mean Killing Joke/Fall style noisy dance music, not disco with guitars. Roland Barker went on to Ministry, and Bill Rieflin went on to Ministry, NIN, Pigface, REM, and more.

The New Standard began life in 1981 as a punk power-pop band, mutated into a synth-driven new wave band, and split up. In the early 00's, they were reborn as a loud, rawkin' punk band, recorded this CD and have been gigging around town. Most of the songs here were written in the late seventies, when guitarist George Dively was kickin' out the jams with DC's awe-inspiring Penetrators. The New Standard put their own stamp on the material. There's also a five song demo from 1982, when the New Standard were still in their lo-fi powerpop phase.

Garage punk rock and roll. The Slickees were the godfathers of the DC punk scene--it's fair to say that without their presence, the punk scene would never have grown up, leaving DC firmly in the hands the Urban Verbs/TDU/new wave crowd. This disc is live stuff from 1980-1982. Essential. Now we need a '76-'79 CD and an '83-92 CD. Get crackin, Marshall!

Kick ass beer-swilling rocknroll from some old-school punk rockers. A nasty sound, a bad attitude, and some awesome songs. Features members of Black Market Baby, the Intentions, the Penetrators, Blue Balls Deluxe, Rustbuckit, and several other bands I can't think of at the moment.
