Re-Release: France Sucks and French Connection (By Dr. Macabre)


Hardcore people, rejoice!
Two of the best vinyls in the history of this genre have just been re-mastered, re-pressed, and re-issued.
I am talking about "France Sucks / French Connection (Volume 1 + 2)" of course.
And if this still does not ring a bell (but how could that be?) - that's the one where "French Connection" by French Connection aka Dr. Macabre is on. One of the most classic Hardcore tracks, on a scale with "Stereo Murder", "I Like It Loud" or "Braincash", I dare to say.

This operation has been conceived by Underground Music, and Simon Underground posted this info on the internet:

"I am in the warehouse stickering the sleeves and getting them all ready to ship. They look and sound amazing. Much better sound than the originals. Much more top end and really punchy kick drums."

And now they are rolling out, into the world, and you can order them directly at the very underground music shop:

Complete Tracklist:

France Sucks Vol. 1
A. French Connection
B. Fuck You All!!

French Connection II
A. Bio Hazard
B. Bullshit

In the "The unofficial Planet Core Productions guidebook" we wrote the following about the tracks:

France Sucks Vol. 1

hey hey hey, it's monsieur leroux with a giant gabber hit in history!
"french connection" starts slow, pounding, breaks down into a heroic speech, only to speed up and bang on.
the flipside [fuck you all] is a french speedcore massacre

French Connection II

french connection returns, and, just like the movie, this is even more brutish.
[bio hazard and bullshit] both tracks showcase french hardcore and gabber sounds at their best.
