OK, I was hoping to buy more local CDs this weekend, perhaps later this week. Here's my reviews...

The Hoosegow-The Last Buffet: A little rough, but worth a listen. Bastards covered Pay to Come by Bad Brains (I wanted to play that tune :( ) Pretty punk, gonna be a shame not seeing this band as often as I want to, but that's just me.

House of Commons-Patriot 12 Inch: It slays, not a bad track on it, and it was released 22 years ago. Still stands the test of time. If you find it on vinyl, you're lucky!!!

Mission of Christ-Silence in Grave Demo 87/Demo 89: No wonder everyone's stoked on this, it rocks!!! Wish I could of snagged a better copy, but hey it was recorded in 87 :)

That MOC demo is a rad tape. It makes me wish they had actually gone on to bigger and better things.

The Hoosegow may not go on to better things but they are definitely one of Victoria's "biggest" bands! - Sun, 9 May 2004 7:20pm

Heh... sigh, my opinion gets me in more trouble. Perhaps I need to listen to it a few more times. I'm like that with some albums. - Tue, 11 May 2004 7:39pm

Heh... I thought it was a demo. JAF?!? I remember seeing that CD (they did release one, right), any good? I should hunt it down and buy it. BTW: Got the Kincaide 3-track demo at the show last night, they've got an awesome sound! Let's hope they slay at Warped Tour. - Sat, 15 May 2004 1:55pm

I hate to spilt hairs here but why do you insist on calling these "demos"? The HOC was a full blown vinyl release and two of the MOC songs came out on a split 7" with Fratricide. These aren't demos the way I see demos being "demonstration" recordings; predecessors to "real" recordings.I always say that I don't do demos; I do recordings. Calling it a demo somehow makes it not quite as good than if it were a "real" recording. - Fri, 21 May 2004 6:28am
