Wild Stabs in the Dark



I was able to catch The Flex and Violent Reaction tour a couple months ago. Both UK bands were excellent as expected. I did think The Flex was better live than their counterpart, even though I prefer Violent Reaction on recordings. The Flex's debut LP "Wild Stabs in the Dark" is one of the most hyped albums of 2014 and rightfully so. This is a very good record and appears to already be out of press. Similar to their "Scum on the Run" EP, all copies were pressed on red vinyl. I believe this was out of /1000 copies. Furthermore, they reign from the same town as my boy Jake and my favorite European football club, Leeds United.

Red Indeed



I have been very busy lately and it's been a challenge keeping up with this blog. This is a great record that I was stoked on when I first got it. I bought it on a whim because of the description and the relation to Violent Reaction. I thought I would be a trend setter, and I slowly watched every single blog in the world post this record before I got a chance to. Haha, I guess great minds think alike. As everyone else has noted, this release pressed on red vinyl out of /600 is all around red and I think it looks great. A fantastic EP by this English band that sounds alot more like 80's USHC than you'd think.
