Last LIVE SET for a while...

I think this is the last LIVE SET recording I have that has not been posted. If more sets turn up later, I'll add them. This is our most recent gig, just a couple weeks ago at Smiling Moose. Vulture CD release party with Complete Failure, Liquified Guts, and us. Great show, the last one we're going to be doing for a while, as we get to work on our new LP.

We're gonna be recording that thing for the next few months, so this blog thing will most likely take a turn towards chronicling that process for a little while. But first, I am gonna try to clear my hard drive and make available the rest of recordings /demos I have so they're all in one particular space (here).

Anyway...

SATANIC BRAT EP

Back in 2006 we did a Ramones tribute show as a benefit for the American Cancer Society. It was organized by our good friends the garage-rockin' Atomic Drops and all the bands learned a bunch of Ramones tunes, drank a free keg of PBR and had a blast.

Flyer from 2006:

As a "supplement" to the show, we recorded the 4 Ramones songs that we did for a short-run tribute CD-R thing. We called it SATANIC BRAT (as in, "Beat on the Brat with a Satanic Bat", etc...) and I think we made 50 copies. We sold it for a couple extra bucks to donate to the cause, and we gave away the rest of them by the end of the night, and that was it.

It's popped up for a minute on some friend's blogs and shit over the years, but otherwise, I doubt anyone that wasn't at that show ever heard this.

We were still experimenting with our limited recording gear at the time, and we learned and recorded these songs in 1 day. Plus, this is Pre-Hector, so there's not even a bass player on this. Still fun...

I think the funniest part of it (besides the obvious fact that we made Doom metal versions of Ramones songs) is the cover:

I think both of these art pieces are Dan Rugh creations...Best dude.

Sept LIVE SET - Krug's Place, Fred-ROCK City

I mentioned just a couple posts back that we recently did a pretty rad show in Frederick, MD at Krug's Place. Krug's has become one of our favorite places to play because, well, the place rocks, and also because of our friend Fanny, who kicks maximum levels of ass. Fanny goes out of her to way to make sure every show is a blast and she gets the utmost respect of basically every heavy underground band in the Eastern US.

We got to play with 3 of the premier Doom bands this country has to offer: Argus, Earthride, and Valkyrie. Get to know all these blokes if you don't already. Go to their shows and spend all your money on their records and merch.

Here is our set from that show. The sound isn't the best on this one:
