Thankfully I bought it for under a tenner from a reseller.; December 10, 2017 at 1:14 PM
Brushback said...: Yeah, some of that Twisted Village stuff can be fairly pricey. If I remember correctly, there's a deluxe vinyl edition that goes for even more.; December 12, 2017 at 8:40 PM
ib said...: A Connecticut label as well as band ?; December 13, 2017 at 6:40 AM
Brushback said...: Massachusetts really (Twisted Village started in Connecticut, but was mostly based out of Boston) but the majority of everyone in Wormdoom was either from Connecticut or had ties to Connecticut (Joe Malinowski, Tom Leonard, Wayne Rogers), if I've got my facts straight; December 13, 2017 at 8:16 AM
ib said...: Thanks for filling in the blanks. I just listened to some Magic Hour and a little of the Crystalized Movements, both of which I gather feature Kate Biggar and Wayne Rogers too. Not as off the wall as Wormdoom, I feel. I'm looking forward to hearing the album when it comes. Albeit some 20 years after the fact.; December 13, 2017 at 8:38 AM

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.
