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.

Superchunk - This Summer b/w Cruel Summer

Superchunk have quickly became one of my favourite bands in the last 5 years. I even got the little tube from the cover of there last album tattooed on my last year. I was not totally up on this release when it came out I heard about it though a friend after it sold out at a local shop. Superchunk has done a thing with there last 3 7"s where 95% of them are only available at record stores so  I called around and everyone in town and it was sold out everywhere. I emailed a fellow Superchunk follower and the person who got me into them to check there local store and they found it! Anyway after a mild panic they handed it off to my co-worker and fellow band mate (who's other band was on tour on the west coast at the time) and it was finally in my hands.. 1 new song and 1 cover. the new song is this summer its a slower poppy tune a classic tune to add to there catalog. Side B is a Bananarama cover called Cruel Summer I've never heard the original of this tune but Superchunk made it there own.

The last 3 7"s also have come hand numbered and this one is to #496/1300

The New Breed Comp...

 I've been sitting on this post for what seems like forever know so lets just get it out of the way.. We all know what the deal with is by now. The New breed comp wild style cover pre-order version #70/200. This is probably the best nyhc comp to ever come out period. Finally pressed on vinyl. comes with a reprint of the zine that came with the tape with a couple extra bonus tracks from Life's Blood and All for one.

Billingsgate - Reach Out

 I picked this up when I was in NYC a couple months ago now. I really did not know much about this other then it was a early Victory Records release (no.2) and that the cover picture was amazing, look at these guys you got 2 guys wearing trench coats a long hair smoking a cig a straight edge dude and dude that looks like a joker at the end what a mish mash of dudes here. On the other end Billingsgate play youth crew style of music that kind of reminds me of Turning Point, recorded in 1989 and out of Illinois. This 7" was way better then I thought it was going to be. The lyrics for each song are a short novel in length. I would suggest picking this up if you see it for under $5.

Oh yeah whoever owned this before coped a set list folded it up and tossed it in with the 7"! It was a nice added bonus when buying this record!

HOAX 2eps

I picked this one up a while ago thou the Youth Attack Mailorder fiasco that happened about 5 months ago. I've had this for a while now just getting around to posting about it now. Hoax are one of the best current bands playing this style of hardcore at the moment killer songs killer live show. This is there second 7" on YA limited to 200 copies on Clear/White vinyl.

 The 3rd ep from Hoax on Painkiller have I have also had this for about 2 months. Huge poster insert that Hoax are becoming custom with there 7"s this thing looks and sounds killer.
