Take One For The Team - Pounder Payed In Quarters


Take One For The Team were a pop punk band from Bothell, WA that existed in the early 2000's. Their sound can best be described as an amalgam of some of the better known pop punk bands of the time (New Found Glory, Blink-182... etc) with vocals very reminiscent of Saves The Day. Members of the group went on the play in bands such as Evora, Sunday Best and This Providence.

The Cripples / New Luck Toy - Split 7"



Today's download features 4 slabs of down home Northwest punk rock. The Cripples return with two more tracks of their trademarked style of abrasive synth punk. The first track "Deep Throat" is slightly faster paced than the version that made it onto their album Culture. The 2nd track is called "Hospital" and was recorded in 1996 by an earlier incarnation of the band. Rounding things off are New Luck Toy with the songs "Wedding Dress" and "Timothy of Today"

Enjoy! (contains sleeve and insert scans)

The Finks - Children Of The Finks (cassette)


The Finks were a hardcore street punk band that existed in the later part of the 90's. I know next to nothing about these guys other than that were awesome to see live and that (I think) they broke up sometime in the Spring of '99. This is a 10 track cassette they released that was passed on to me by a friend a long time ago.

If you happen to know anything about this band or what any of the members ended up doing afterwards feel free to leave a comment and help fill in the story.

I need your help

I am working on reupping most of the links that went down after the whole Megaupload debacle and I've come to realize that I am missing something. I've lost both my physical and digital copies of the Drowning In Lethe tour cd-r. If you happened to download this and still have it stashed away somewhere, please upload it somewhere and send me a message. Thank you

Run Away Laughing


Before Waxwing, before Lying On Loot and before branching off into what has come to be an absolutely stellar solo career, Rocky Votolato was playing in a band with some high school friends called Run Away Laughing. This is an album that was released I believe sometime around '94 or '95 and it should definitely appeal to fans of bands like Sunny Day Real Estate, Thirty Ought Six or any of Rocky's other work
There are a few sound issues with this rip as my copy of this tape rarely left my walkman back in the day and is rather worn out at this point. If anyone out there has a better quality copy of this release I would be very grateful if you could upload it somewhere and send me a link.
Enjoy

March 15th



March 15th were a post hardcore band from the greater Seattle area that existed from the late 90's into the early 2000's. They originally started off as a typical three piece (guitar/bass/drums) but, after taking a queue from the Blood Brothers playbook, expanded to a five piece, adding two additional vocalists, further increasing the fury and intensity of their sound. Members of the band have gone on to play in such groups as: Ravenna Woods, Monogamy Party, Navigator vs Navigator, Fires to the East and Skyline Divide
