? & The Mysterians - 96 Tears / Midnight Hour 7"

If you have ever had the privilege, or should I say honor, to browse through my almighty record collection, you would notice that all my records are not all punk. 80% is punk and hardcore, but I have some other stuff in there as well. And since this is my blog, I'm going to bring you the joys of rare doo-wop, soul, and of course, 60's garage punk.

I remember buying a huge box of 45's at norms auction a few years ago for eBay. And I saw this in their and remembered hearing it on the radio when I was a kid. Music critics consider this to be one of the first 60's punk songs. Although I agree its classics 60's garage, there were much more punk sounding bands in the 60's. But I still love this song anyways. I'd like to find a copy that doesn't have the label ripped. Blah

Here is the music video from 1965


PRESSING INFO: Released on Cameo records in 1966. C-428. There are a few different pressings of this release. Mainly different matrix numbers

TRACK LISTING:
A-side = 96 Tears
B-side = Midnight Hour

50/50 - SGGC 7" EP

Another grindcore release! I bought this at the champ not too long ago when they still carried good music. I had never heard of this band and picked it up because it was on 625. Its some solid gore style grindcore. About skating of course. I put the last few songs in one file because they all blended together.

PRESSING INFO: Released on Agromosh Records 022, and 625 Thrashcore #127. Pressed on black and red vinyl. Black is common, and red seems a little harder to find. No idea on how many were pressed.

TRACK LISTING:

A1		Blood Soaked Security Guard
A2		Skate Gore
A3		Bong Water Vomitus
A4		Wall Ride Waste
A5		Curb Slaughter
A6		Frontside Face Grind
B1		Gator Mutilation

Hellnation - At War With Emo 5" (Slapaham Records)

At last! I just got my new stylus for my USB turntable in the mail! Now lets see if I can break it again. Blah. This is a repost. I think this was my first entry actually, and I couldnt figure out how to upload the whole album. So I ended up uploading each individual track. Bad idea. So here it is again. This time you can download the whole thing. I did not seperate each track because some of them blended together. Wicked fast power violence!

PRESSING INFO: Pressed on Slap-a-ham Records. #38. There were 6 test pressings and I've never seen one. My copy is on black which is the most common. There is also a yellow pressing (mailorder edition) and a yellow & black swirl which seems to be pretty rare.

TRACK LISTING:
Side A
1. Think Before You Act
2. Trapped
3. Heirloom
4. Stagnate

Side B
1. A Song About Crusties
2. Get Out

4. Not Me (Origianlly by SOB)

V/A - Check This Out, Baby CD Comp

I'm gonna be honest, I have no idea where I got this. Probably at a record store for like $1. Anyways its a pretty good comp. I really miss comps of the old days. Now comps are almost extinct, and when they do come out, they usually put the bands worst song on there. fuck. OK, I'm off track. This has pop punk, melodic punk, emo, and some ska. Check it out.

PRESSING INFO: This used to be available on interpunk, they must have sold out recently. Released on Onefoot Records in 1996. With a little bit of searching, I'm sure you can find it for a buck or 2.

TRACK LISTING:
Read the back scan, I'm in a hurry and I don't feel like typing it all up.

Sanbox - Free Demo CD

The title of this cd is actually called "The I Didn't Go to the Promo Cos I Couldn't Afford it, not Cos Nobody Wanted to Go with Me" Free Sanbox CD. What a mouthful. I picked this up 2 years ago at City Lights Records in State College PA. This was another one of those moments of "I have no idea what this is, but it looks punk and its cheap" kinda deals. Its pretty good pop punk from New Jersey. Only 3 songs but I'd recomend it for some hard to find demo versions. Their full length is listed on ebay, and it has the same artwork, but colored. It's $16.99, and thats too much.

PRESSING INFO: This was given away for free before they released their full length. Probably less than 100 made.

TRACK LISTING:
1. I Love You (So Shut Up)
2. Whose Fault
3. Alice Jeanne
