At the time I got this CD I was playing the Recess Records compilations Hot Curly Weenie volumes 1 and 2* and I was looking for something similar. This didn't live up to being what I wanted it to be but there are a couple noteworthy tracks.

 

The inlay was printed on, what we called back in the 20th century, "typewriter paper" which wasn't made for computer printer ink so the scans look like the inlay is water damaged. It's not. A lot of things from back in the days look like this. That's why it's important for them to be preserved.

* Hot Curly Weenie vol 2 is my favorite. How do you not love beautiful songs like this?: 

va STV Sessions Vol. 1 (1998)

 Punk / Hardcore / Ska compilation from the 90s. 

 There are lots of good songs and lots of shit songs (like most compilations). I won't say what I think are the shittiest songs on here because I try not to bad-mouth any band on my blog, but I will say that my two favorite songs are right next to each other - tracks 13 and 14. 

Backwash - "Pirates" has that great late 80s/early 90s So. Cal. hardcore punk sound when the hardcore band lightened up and played a quirky song.

This is a demo version. The version on the comp is different. 

...and Impossible 5 - "Anti" (I couldn't find a video for this one).

I have the Impossible 5 CD that this song came from. I'll post it if anybody gives a shit. Just ask. 

They have a second CD that I don't have.
