LISTING PUZZLE 1 JUST LAST NIGHT 2 NOTICED TOO LATE 3 NEED 4 |
What can we say? It is our first record. We had been a
band for about a year and had exhausted the backyard party circuit. After we
recorded our second demo, we duped a bunch of tapes and took them down to sell at Zed
Records in Long Beach. We gave one to Big Frank who worked there and also did
Nemesis Records. A few days later he called us and asked if we wanted to do a
single. We recorded and mixed it in one day at South Coast Recording Studio in Santa Ana. The funny thing about this recording is that it was done without the use of a guitar amp. This was our first real band. We didn't have very good equipment and really didn't know much about it. We thought, "Hey, this is going to be our big debut into the "scene". We don't want to sound like wimps". So instead of using his sub-par amp, Todd played through what is known as a "Zoom" effects processor. It looked like he was playing through a walkman and sounded like the guitar player from Missing Persons playing through a tin can. This is one of those things we look back on and wonder, "What they hell were we thinking?" And when I hear the first "word" on the record, it makes me wonder, "What the hell was I saying?" First pressing was on green vinyl the rest were on black. We have no idea how many were made. It is now out of print. |
