One Base on an Overthrow: You're The One I Won't Forgive

You're The One I Won't Forgive

This is something that I bought from Prgnt on a hunch, figuring by the looks of it that it was good and ignorant, and I was right. Two bands from the Midwest (Illinois and Indiana), sharing a split 7" on a Boston label. Socially Retarded is powerviolence with electronics; I'm sure someone else had this idea first, but I don't feel like thumbing through my back issues of HeartattaCk/Give Me Back to find out. Daisycutter are more towards standard p.v. with awesome slow parts-- obviously I'm clueless when it comes to describing stuff like this, I just think it's cool because "Instant Asshole" sounds like Vaccine and Oiltanker pressed together. Good for those times when I've given up on music. Fourteen songs in all (9 from Daisycutter, 5 from Socially Retarded) in under nine minutes. The first 40 copies or so come with silver and black screenprinting on a heavy chipboard sleeve. There's not really a tracklisting for the Socially Retarded side (it's buried in the lyric sheet somewhere), plus the center labels are on the wrong sides, which doesn't help much. If you want one, you can bug these guys ----> prgntrecords.com

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.
