- Hey you are just forgetting the imho most important bands: Discharge, Varukers,
- Anti-System and lots of other English bands, all the Finnish stuff, some
- Brasilian stuff (a band called "Olho Seco" had put out a 7" in Germany in 1984,
- RDP put out their first rec in 1982/3) and some Japanese bands.
