I could start by telling you about the day Andrew's mini van caught on fire on the way to a show in rural Pennsylvania. How about the time we were staying with Gary from Noothgrush and I smoked so much California chronic that Dave Witte called me, "Corpselos." Or that our second gig was on a bill opening for Man Is The Bastard! Sure, these are the experiences I'll never forget, but what made any of those things possible was the racket we created in our rehearsal room. Bands we idolized like Napalm Death and Discharge provided the inspiration. Did we unconsciously lift a riff here and there? Probably, but it goes to show that we had some killer taste! We toured whenever we could get off of work. We played with some of our heroes. We went to places we never thought we'd see. Yes, that includes the bathroom of Stalag 13. But the most valuable thing we were left with was the friends we made throughout that time. The word "family" comes to mind.
So here we are some 8 years later and a new CD. These songs span our existence. We were around from 1996 to 1999. But a lot these tracks were never released. Black Army Jacket recorded a 7" for the fine folks at Relapse but we broke up before it was ever released. This is the only place you can get these songs. But it doesn't stop there people! We have also included our original demo and other assorted catastrophes. So sit back and enjoy the grind! By the way, we didn't cancel that gig in Pennsylvania...
