It's not uncommon at all for me to pick up records without knowing anything about the band, and basing my purchase solely on band name or cover art. I picked this Dead Stop record up a few years back because of the name, which is also the name of my favorite Negative Approach song. I found it in the used bin for $7.99, and I figured that at that price it was worth the gamble that they would resemble N.A. enough to make the purchase worth my while. I'm real glad I picked this up because I love this record, and yes they definitely sound a shit load like N.A. I have been listening to it pretty heavily over the last couple years and it is no doubt one of my favorites to keep on a regular rotation on my decks. This band was from Belgium and put this release out in 2005. They have some other vinyl which I don't own yet and I'm not really sure why, but that is something that I hope to remedy someday. Check out this live video of them at their "last show":

It's all no use, It's all photo cropping...
Ok, So I know I'm a terrible photographer but I am trying to get better! I finally found a slightly better set up for my photos than the first round which were on my coffee table. I am now getting them next to a window upstairs with a little better natural lighting. Most importantly, I finally figured out how to use that damn "Iphoto" to crop the pictures so they look less shitty. I'll keep playing with it and as time goes on hopefully I'll get better, so please just bear with me for the time being :)
Here two copies of "Tied Down". One is the 2nd pressing (I think it was pressed in '85?) on pink (or violent, purple, whatever). I love this album on pink, I just think it looks so much better than the green! The Green is a repress from an unknown year. I was trying to see if anyone could help me figure it out. I traded for it with an old friend around 2006. I recently saw a copy at my local store that had "Free Digital Download" stickers on the shrink wrap, so I know that it must have been pressed again very recently and this is not that one. They are both on black vinyl. The green pressing has no lyric insert (atleast that I acquired in the trade) and the Chicago address. If anyone knows what year it came out or even how many of these were pressed, I would really appreciate some insight.
