WHAT RECORD FROM THE PAST DO YOU WISH YOU HAD RELEASED?
I like a lot of different stuff. Aside from what we would consider classic LPs and singles… we’re listening to a lot of amazing recent(ish) releases. To name a few: Davila 666, King Tuff, Yussuf Jerusalem, and the Hunches’ Exit Dreams. Those are all great.
As far as what we would consider a classic release? Maybe… The Quick’s ‘Mondo Deco’? Maybe the Ramones? I don’t know, this is like an impossible SAT question Pat!
FAVORITE SHOW OF THE PAST YEAR?
There were tons of great ones in Chicago: Every Nobunny, Yolks, and S-Dubz show… The Mickey show recently. Seeing our friends Teepee and Melted Sunglasses at Wiggly World in Orlando was a personal highlight.
Our prediction for 09’: World Gone Wiggly (Orlando) & So Raw Festival (Miami) will be retardedly fun. Everyone should go to both of those.
FAVORITE LABELS (OTHER THAN YOUR OWN)?
Floridas Dying & HoZac stand out among many other great labels out there.
WHERE CAN PEOPLE BUY YOUR RELEASES?
From us, Rocket Reducer (THE BEST!), Floridas Dying, Tic Tac Totally, Ptrash, Puke n' Vomit, Green Noise, Permanent, Reckless Records….and we expect more distros to hopefully start carrying much of our future junk.
