Afrika Corps

A compilation of South African punk bands originally released on cassette by French label Western Front Tapes in 1983. Compiled by Rubin 'Wildman' Rose, it features, in addition to the established bands of that period - Wild Youth (South Africa's first punk rock band, formed in 1978 and Rubin Rose's group), Leopard, Gay Marines (both among the very first bands of the scene) and Powerage (from Durban, on the scene since 1981) - and lesser-known names with almost non-existent discographies but certainly worthy of being brought to light today. Those selections gave a broader and clearer picture of what it meant to be a punk band in the apartheid years.
