Wasting my fucking Time

I'm fucking pissed right now. I just spent a bunch of money to go to see my Oakland A's get their asses kicked by the team I can't stand most in all professional sports, the San Francisco Giants. This was a game at AT&T park in San Francisco (which I have never been to before) and it was a beautiful park, but it was a really miserable time. I can't stand the Giants and their fans. I don't care if you got a more recent world series title, we still swept your ass in '89. A's all day, baby! Anyways, after spending a shit load of money to go experience this punishment, I'm upset and feel liked I wasted my time. On the way home I figured, why not listen to some Wasted Time? As I've mentioned in other posts, I really love this band and I just can't get enough of them. They definitely capped off my negative ass night. That's it, I'm too pissed off to write anymore and I'm going to bed. Go check out this record!

Wasted Time S/T

Some bands you hear for the first time and you just can't get into them, and it takes time for them to grow on you. Some bands you hear for the first time, and you know you will never be into them. Some bands you hear for the first time, and after 10 seconds you know you just can't get enough. Wasted Time is one of those bands I heard and after one song I knew I was hooked. 62 seconds into "Shameless" after the minute long intro, it only takes two seconds of vocals to realize these dudes are some serious heavy hitters. Grave Mistake recently posted that they had a few limited copies of this release on white and coke bottle clear that were long OOP. They also had copies on green, but I waited about 24 hours to get my order in and by then they were gone. I think each of these was out of /150, but I forget what it said exactly. I wish I would have got one on green, Fuck! I am always scouring ebay for Wasted Time vinyl now, but you don't see the color come up too often. This is a band you should definitely check out. Here's a free download of this 7" that I found and figured I would share, only because this release is OOP and you can't purchase it anywhere. So enjoy!

New Grave Mistake releases just in...

I just got a bunch of stuff from my latest order from Grave Mistake, one of my favorite labels. I'll show some of their new releases below...

A very solid by a band called Bad Advice on limited Orange vinyl. I like the simple lay out and it comes with a digital download card, yet no lyrics/insert. Bummer. Good fast hardcore punk rock with members of Government Warning, Direct Control, the Ladies and Cloak/Dagger. Go pick this up on Orange vinyl before its gone!

The next one is Sectarian Violence on limited Red vinyl. This is a Coke Bust side project and this release sounds great as well. It comes with an insert with the lyrics, which I'm not so sure if that is such a good thing. The lyrics are kind of corny, but this is still a very solid release. The vinyl is thick as hell, you could use this thing as a ninja star.

Here's a re release of an album that came out in 1986 by Richmond VA's Unseen Force. I remember seeing a picture of this album years ago but I have never actually heard them. I haven't listened to it yet but I'm going to throw it on tonight, I'll update this later with what I think.

Here is Cardiac Arrest's "Life is a Dead End" on Blue. This is the fourth pressing and only out of 100. This is another one that I haven't had a chance to listen to yet, so I will update this later with my thoughts on it.

So I saved the best for last. This is my favorite release of all of these so far. I have the "No Shores" ep by Wasted Time and I love it, and this LP does not disappoint. Super raw and hard as fuck, it really makes me want to punch some holes in the walls. The vocals are excellent on this and the music is sharp with tight drums and crunchy, thick guitars. I haven't heard some of these other releases because I just can't seem to get this off my turn table! I also picked up some other distro items in this order, but I'll post those individually some other time.
