Summertime Compilation


Super awesome early 2000s comp that has a lot of fantastic bands on there (I mean seriously look at that list). Aside from the obvious bands you should already know about (Off Minor, Pg. 99, Joshua Fit for Battle).

As far as I know, Ache is pre-Sinaloa and Knives & Greenwater is pre-Gospel. Off Minor also does a pretty nice Universal Order of Armageddon cover.

And whats the best part about this compilation? It has Geoff Rickley's number! It's probably an old one though, and I really do want to call it though; I'll see in the future when I grow a pair.

Sea of Cortez

Every 10 days sounds about right eh? I'm probably just pushing myself to make sure at least every 10 days, but whatever fuck faces.

Sea of Cortez were a pretty sweet 90s emo band from Arizona. They put out a 7", a split 7" and an LP on Voice of the Sky records. That LP is damn near impossible to find because apparently Voice of the Sky was pretty much done when they were putting out that LP. It's a shame, because I would love a copy, but god damn.

Definitely recommended band, a gem of the 90s emo scene shit whatever. I also went ahead and uploaded the split 7" in shitty usb turntable quality.

The Vidablue/Ten Grand

I'm watching football right now, but as usual, any fantasy player I have is too busy being a fuck up.

What fuck ups.

I'm trying to keep this blog rolling, and I really don't want to just stop posting out of nowhere, but I am one lazy human being.

But on to the good stuff.

The Vidablue/Ten Grand is probably my favorite band ever. I can't be 100% sure of these things though. They are though the only band I actually want to have a full collection of, but you don't care about that.

It's something special about them, the vocal delivery, the music, their live shows (or at least the recorded ones that exist). They're a pretty special band, and it's sad to see such a great person like Matt Davis go. Maybe I shouldn't have been so young when they were around, because I would've loved to see these guys and meet Matt, I have never heard an ill word about him.

Their first two releases are pretty fantastic stuff, but their 3rd release really marks a change in their music to an even greater direction. Just, everything got better. I suck at describing this shit, but This is the Way to Rule is definitely their best release, in my opinion. I wholeheartedly recommend downloading every single thing posted here, you won't be disappointed at all.
