V/A - The Fearless Flush Sampler CD (1997)

ARTIST: Various
TITLE: The Fearless Flush Sampler
LABEL: Fearless Records
CATALOG: F027-2
YEAR: 1997
GENRE: Punk, Pop Punk, Hardcore
PRESSING INFO: Unknown

It seems these blog entries are getting farther and farther apart. Thats ok, I still have a never ending supply of great music for the masses to hear.

A few years ago (probably like 8 or so) I was at a punk show in Mechanicsburg at a community center. For the life of me I cannot seem to remember the name! Anywho, there was a band from CT that had a HUGE box of CD's for sale at $2 a pop. I ended up pulling out this CD, and A Tribute To Your Mom (which I'll post in this blog eventually). He didnt have any change for my $10, so I ended up buying these for $1 a piece. Rare OOP compilations always make me smile. This compilation started my search for the elusive Drunk in Public full length (which I posted in this blog earlier). Its a great comp with some unreleased songs.

Fearless Records was a great label until they started releasing those horrible "punk goes....whatever is trendy this week" cover compilations.

TRACK LISTING:
1. Chuck - Punk Rock In Your Face
2. Glue Gun - The Scene Is Not For Sale
3. Strung Out - Jacqueline
4. 30footfall - Punk Rocks In Yer Head
5. Straight Faced - Convictions
6. Blount - Discouragement
7. Drunk In Public - Everyday
8. Bigwig - 1-800-Whipped
9. White Kaps - Dork

15. Straight Faced - Regret
16. Blount - Time Spent
17. White Kaps - Disco Ball
18. Bigwig - Old Lady
19. Drunk In Public - Dreaming
20. Grabbers - Thanks
21. Straight Faced - Standing On The Edge

V/A - Cash, Gash & Thrash Comp 7"

ARTIST: Various
TITLE: Cash, Gash & Thrash
LABEL: Grand Theft Audio
CATALOG: AD-96-10
YEAR: 1998
PRESSING INFO: First pressings were hand numbered on the back to 1011.

It seems as though the thrash and grind type music is the most popular on this blog. So I was digging through my 7" comps and found this. I totally forgot I had it. Mainly because I'm clearing out some of my records and wanted to sell this.

I believe I purchased this a few years ago off of ebay. But I'm not entirely sure. Relativity short comp with 5 tracks of thrash/grind. I think there was only one pressing on black.

TRACK LISTING:
1. Wadge - Middle Of Nowhere
2. Utter Bastard - Wammie Bar Song
3. Fallout - Punk Scene 90210
4. B.A.T. - Bad Acid Trip
5. P.E.L.M.E. - Liquidating Angel

Racer Ten - Melodies & Memories CD

ARTIST: Racer Ten
TITLE: Melodies & Memories
LABEL: One Foot Records
CATALOG: Unknown
YEAR: 1996
PRESSING INFO: Unknown

First and foremost, everybody should go out and buy the new Shook Ones LP. I do not think it is as good as Facetious Folly Feat, but its still pretty damn good! Now on to another CD that nobody gives a shit about..

A few years ago I was hanging out with my friend April at CI Records in Lancaster. I browsed through their over priced vinyl and found nothing. I took a look through their budget CD's and found this for $4.98. I knew Racer Ten from those "Check This Out!" comps on One Foot Records. So I decided to give it a try. They were a band from Canada and played an early 90's power pop style. This CD isnt too hard to find, and can be had off of ebay and amazon for about $1. They appeared on a ton of comps, and also released another full length of Triple Threat Records which is still available.

TRACK LISTING:
1. Something
2. Marshall Dill Pickle
3. Angry Eyes
4. Blisters
5. So Long
6. You
7. Jason's Song
8. Creamsicle
9. X-Ray Brave
10. Milkbone
11. Breathe
12. Parachute
13. The Ballad of Bruce Campbell
14. Regrets
15. Andrew's Waiting
16. Withdrawal.
