D.o.n.D.o.n.-Commercialism 7"

D.o.n.D.on. were a respective member of the second wave of bands that rose the flag of punk in Japan in mid/late 80's. You have met them before in their split w Scraps so there is no need for any rant about their history. Bastard, GISM, Asbestos, Judgement and Poison Arts are some bands that D.o.n.D.o.n members were involved, Iizawa (bassist) does backing vocals in the third and newest World Burns To Death lp, "Graveyard of Utopia".

Commercialism" was the second D.o.n.D.o.n. ep, it was released in 1990 on Highly Collectable Records, a label run by Dropdead members. Six tracks, 14:30" total running time and grey vinyl.
Midpaced tempos that sometimes speed on, decent production and harsh vocals (the japanese way). I dont know how many copies of grey were made and if there was a classic black vinyl version is a question that should be answered by some of you out there who happen to know, (the number of 250 copies of gray appears as info in a trade list on How's Your Edge? )
Tracks:
01:Nuclear reek
02:Commercialism

03:Essentional qualities
04:Braggart

05:Satisfy
06:Factory
