HOWARD NORTH - 7" EP
three songs - "Song #8," "Seventy," and "Gin Breeding." highly acclaimed by their native Montreal press as well as CMJ and Vinyl Ink. a fusion of Washington D.C. dischordy punk, the ALBINI-esque Chicago sound, a touch of disco, and a hint of reggae. i can't commend this record highly enough. grade-A stuff.
