V/A - 2 Sugar Sampler Vol. 2 CD

For some reason my scanner decides it's not going to friggen work this weekend. I wanted to post my usual front and back covers, and the CD as well. But everybody will have to live with a stolen picture from interpunk.com

A while back I saw a ska-punk band called No on 15 in Mechanicsburg PA. If I knew then, what I know now, I would have picked up some of their other releases. But I am a comp junkie and I had to have this. I'm pretty sure it was really cheap. This also introduced me to Fonzie and Jettison. Also, I'm sure everybody who reads this knows, Smackin Isaiah is essentially A Wilhelm Scream

It was released in 2002 on Jumpstart Records. Catalog # JST-037. Its been out of print for a little while now, and seems to be somewhat difficult to get a hold of. Jumpstart Records is still around producing some great punk and easycore.

30 Amp Fuse - Self Titled 7"




ARTIST - 30 Amp Fuse
TITLE - 30 Amp Fuse
LABEL - The Arena Rock Recording Company
CATALOG - AR003
YEAR - 1996/1997?
PRESSING INFO - Gray marble vinyl

I just recently picked up this LP on my annual trip to Philadelphia for CZW Cage of Death. I believe I bought this from Repo Records, and for only $3.99. I was pleasently surprised when I drop the needle on this record. I was expecting a more polished power pop sound, as was the case with Wind Up. However this has a harsher more pop punk sound to it.

This seems pretty hard to find, but not impossible. I'm not sure how many were pressed but It seems it was only pressed on gray marble. The zip file contains scans of the inserts, as well as all 3 tracks!

TRACK LISTING
A1. Whatever It Was
B1. Stereogram
B2. A Good Flying Bird

Pick ups from this weekend

I headed up to Megatronix in York PA this weekend. Its this old barn that was turned into a junk/eletronic/adult video store. I guess they ran out of room for their vintage porno VHS so all CDs were only 1 cent each. Yea pretty crazy. So after going through all the CDs they had, I came out with 19. Most of them I just grabbed because it sounded somewhat punk or power pop. That or the artwork intrigued me. And for 1 cent, who cares?

Breaking Pangaea - Cannon to a Whisper ( I knew what this was, and its great)
Bullet Lavolta - Gimme Danger (on Metal Blade)
Chaselounge - Mayday, Roger the Radio (had a sticker from a radio station saying it was power pop in the vein of Weezer.)
Cycomotogoat - Braille (it had boobs on the cover, although fake)
Elephant Factory - Suspended Over Seas (I'm not sure why I grabbed this)
Even The Odd - S/T (Wasnt sure about this one. Self released)
Felt Side Out - Tinted Shades of You (From York. Sounds like punk kids trying to be mainstream hard rock. And they scream. Also not very good)
Grand Drive - S/T (sealed, the sticker said it had hooks and melody. Guess I'll have to find out)
Light The Fuse And Run / Transistor Transistor - Split (On Level Plane)
Mighty Purple - Live (Listening to it now. Kinda like a indie/soft rock sound. Not very good)
Reptile - Fame and Fossils (It looked like old school thrash metal artwork. But when I got home, I read that there is banjos and marimbas in the music. I suppose it isnt metal)
Silent Majority - You Would Love to Know (sealed, on Initial Records)
Steve Abee - Jerusalem Donuts (I'm not sure why I picked this up)
Quarterbone - Fear (2001)
The New Grand - Incognito (1998)
Transistor Transistor - Wolves (on Level Plane)
Vanashing - Still Lifes Are Failing (on GSL)
Victory At Sea - The Dark is Just the Night (they thanked June of 44 and Jejune in the credits so I decided to give it a spin)
V/A - Second Thoughts (had Cursive and Bright Eyes on it)
