burned out bright 12" - awesome emo played as a mix between the mid
90's and present day. really good. DIY packaging - all copies are
unique. (5 copies, £5)

moss icon - discog cd - i know, i know, you already have it. don't
you? DON'T YOU? (3 copies, £6.50)
_______________________________
last crime - s/t cd : not the discog, alas, but 4 amazing songs of
intense and powerful emo stuff. punishing. one of the most over-looked
bands in the genre (5 copies, £2.50)
_______________________________
the exploder - s/t : i don't think this is the same exploder that did
screamo/emo stuff. these are from atlanta, and their sound is melodic
driving punk/rock/emo music that draws upon such influences as dag
nasty, and perhaps also embrace and rites of spring. rocking. (5
copies, £6.50)

soddamn inssein - war on drugs 12" lp : spoof pro-bush hardcore,
art by sam mcpheeters. sounds a bit like born against. some of you
will really appreciate this. info taken from the stickfigure list:
Soddamn Inssein formed with one objective in mind: to make a
case for the upcoming, totally awesome new and improved gulf war II and
American imperialism abroad. With hits like "liquidate (everybody!)",
"time
to get il" (dedicated to Kim Jong Il, president of north korea), "don't
abort" and "oh, america" ("America! Fucking liberate me!) there is no
sensitive political issue left untouched by these five patriots. Soddamn
Inssein are probably this generation of punk rock's answer to born against
and the dead kennedy's!!! The cover is hand drawn and it features the
space
shuttle dropping bombs on the capital!!! On the thanks list soddamn
inssein
thank such luminaries as THE SKINHEAD REHIBILITATION CENTERS OF NORTH
AMERICA!!! Musically soddamn inssein combine influences from all over
ranging from flipper to black flag to rites of spring and more. HIGHLY
RECOMMENDED and do not forget: "GOD KILLS NONBELIEVERS". (4 copies, £5)

tora tora torrance / swing by seven split 7" - TTT is sassy punk stuff
featuring Sam Torrance on guest vocals. maybe a bit like the faint or
something like that. swing by seven do two songs of also sassed up
melodic stuff, but with no keyboards and some screamy bits that are
like song of zarathustra. pretty cool. (1 copies, £2.50)

packaging here, and not easy to tell which band is which! one side is
intense emo violence with lots of flailing and orchid-esque chug. the

into this kind of thing . white vinyl (4 copies, £2.50)
