Nineties Times Two

Double dose of some West Coast nineties awesomeness.

Struggle/Undertow. Mike. Used.

Foolish

I wish I still had the Kidney Room Records press.

I sold it.

Like a fool.

Swing Kids. Mike. Used.

Lefty

The teenage leftist in me thought this was the greatest record ever. Don't get me wrong, it's still great. Even if my ideals have mellowed into Democratic moderation.

Struggle. Mike. Used.

Sum Of Its Parts

I like Some Girls.

But not nearly as much as I like its parts.

Struggle. Swing Kids. Unbroken. American Nightmare. Etc.

Some Girls - The Blues. Mike. Used.

Pinko

I love Ebullition hardcore. Ebullition Records is responsible for some of my favorite releases of the nineties. Screaming, political, crusty.

I'm a fan of most of their discography. Then again I don't have it listed in front of me. I'm sure there are more than a few stinkers.

Like most people, my politics have moderated with age. But at seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty I couldn't get enough of the left-wing rhetoric they were giving me. That style of hardcore meshed well with the books, writers and politics I was into at the time. And opened the door to even more.

To be young and unreasonably idealistic.

Struggle - One Settler, One Bullet: An Anthology. Very Distribution. New.
