One Base on an Overthrow: I Spilled A Lot Of Blood To Get This Meal

I Spilled A Lot Of Blood To Get This Meal

Let me start off by saying that the packaging for this thing is a motherfucker: oversized hand-numbered folded sleeve, labels silkscreened on both sides, lyrics silkscreened onto a polylined dust jacket, in a limited pressing of 200 with an actual CD (not CD-R) included. Inappropriate Tough Guy Behaviour is two guys from Melbourne banging away on bass and drums "with the fuck you knob set to full", and if you're already into stuff like Big Business, Bloaryzed, and Sonorous Gale then you should have no problem at all liking this. Both guys are also in Fire Witch, another Australian band worth checking out, and if you hit up the label web site-- weemptyrooms.com-- you'll find a few more insanely-packaged records from other like-minded and worthy bands.

I got one of the last copies that Wäntage had available in their distro (mine's actually #200/200); I think they might have one more copy for you if you bug them. "Deadline" is my vinyl rip, but because the CD bouncing around in the sleeve scuffed up the vinyl a little bit (whatever, this thing still rules), the other track I'm posting is taken from the CD.

This blog was originally intended to be a place for me to write about the records in my collection, regardless of their rarity/collectability-- or, at least, it was when I first started. Lately it's just been an excuse for me to make dumb jokes and spout off about a lot of stupid crap. Sometimes different things will be thrown in along the way just to confuse people and piss them off, which is okay. All screw-ups, wrong dates, and mis-statements will be ignored by me as if they were intentional, except for grammatical errors which will be edited and rewritten at least five or six times if necessary. Facts will often be misrepresented, as a way of mocking those people who think such things are important. Please note: This is just a hobby for me, and bands are written about here either because I own one of their records or because I've seen them play before and like them. Posting press releases for crappy bands that I have no use for is not really how I want to spend my spare time. If you want to know what kind of bands I like, just look at the sidebar to see which bands I've written about already, and you'll notice that your PR firm doesn't represent any of them. Most of the live band photos on this blog are mine, and if there's one of your band that you like then please feel free to use it, I don't care. It's your band anyway. The blog title itself was swiped from Paul Caporino-- "One Base on an Overthrow" was originally going to be the title of a M.O.T.O. record that I was going to release back in the '90s, but that never actually happened. Lucky for you, I guess.
