Halfoff, Iceburn.


 This past spring Violent Future played 2 gigs down in Brooklyn and Philly on the way to Philly the day after Brooklyn we stopped at Double Decker Records in Allentown,PA I've heard a ton of stories of finds at this store and have never been there we got up early and made our way. I have posted a couple of the records I picked up that day on here in the past but this is just whats left over now.. There was no big hitters for sale as the owner said he just sold a couple in the last month or so before we got there. But he was having a 50% off used 7" sale so fittingly I found a Halfoff - Shooting Guns 7" on clear and a Iceburn - Burn Fall 7" on Clear for about $2 each. Both bands I have never really gotten around to checking out yet. Halfoff have 2 original songs and a Bad Brains cover of Sailin On the cover is ok and the originals sparked my interest in checking out there LP.
Iceburn did not really surprise me at all from what I've heard of this band (there LP's on REV) I would have to say this is there best stuff. But still its not really my thing. I might listen to this once in a while thou.

Ten Yard Fight 7's

 I have been sitting on these next couple posts since June of this year so lets blow them out before the new year gets here. I picked these up when a friend of mine was selling some records in the summer I already had copies of these just not on these colors and for the price I got them at why not pick them up? Ten Yard Fight where one of the first straight edge YC style bands I ever checked out I got there back on track CD and it truly did change how I looked at music from there on out so adding more vinyl to my collection is always nice. First up is the TYF demo 1995 7" with red cover I believe they did red, yellow, green and maybe one other color for the covers out of 500 each I now have yellow and red.
 You can pretty much pick this record up for $5 across the board any press of it and there are many This one is a first press on red out of 1000 and from what I've read online only 500 of them where numbered I got #242  Two solid bands for the price of one record here.

Bastard - Controled In The Frame

 Sometimes it takes me a while to check out bands all my friends are talking about this is one of those cases I only payed attention to the music last new years at a friends house and I blown away buy what I heard holy shit this stuff is insane. Since then I have been checking out a bunch of Japanese hardcore bands and have been loving ever second of it. I picked this up from Grave Mistake shortly after I heard it. Reissued by 540 Records for there Chaos in Tejas gigs. Now I waiting for someone to reissue wind of pain cuz there is no way I can afford to pick up an original of that at the moment.
