The vinyl tracks posted here aren't necessarily bad. "Bad Vinyl" is the social label these records have been given--forgotten in attic boxes, sold of in garage sales or second hand music shops for nothing.

Although a great many of them are really bad.

Of course, all tracks posted here are owned solely by artists and companies who control their rights and yada yada yada. They are posted here in streaming format only for your momentary listening pleasure (or displeasure).

Some of them may be available on iTunes, but many are not available anywhere.

Deutch-Amerikanische Freundschaft - Sex Unter Wasser (Sex Under Water)

Do you like leather muscle shirts, chains, and steamy warehouses? You’re gonna love this.

According to Wikipedia, “The name Deutsch-Amerikanische Freundschaft – literally, German-American Friendship – is a satirical reference to the DSF, the East German Deutsch-Sowjetische Freundschaft (German-Soviet Friendship Organization).” 

I think the joke is readily apparent.

This song comes from their 1981 album Gold und Liebe. The record itself has two sides: the Light Side, and the Dark Side (I’m not joking). “Sex Unter Wasser” can be found on the Light Side—I promise to play something from the Dark Side later on.

D.A.F. still records to this day in their nihilistic electronic style. Check out their extremely German website here, and download some of their latest work here from iTunes.
