Can’t Get Enough

Doing all of these blog entries way after when I got most of these records can be a pain in the ass. I mean, no one could prove when I got which record, but I decided for myself that I want to be as chronological as possible. And now I’m kind of stuck with that decision. 

Undertow is a band I’ve really come to appreciate over the last few years. I knew of the band, but didn’t own any of their records so I didn’t really listen to them. Then one of my favourite German hardcore bands covered one of their songs and I knew I wanted to find out more about that band. Luckily, Undertow records are rather cheap go get, so when I saw two of their 7”s sold by the same seller at good prices, I knew I just had to buy them. 

Both of the 7"s are really good, but I like the songs on Control just a tad better. 

Strain

Strain were a pretty active band in the mid '90s. This here is their s.t. 7", released in 1994. One of three Strain 7"s that came out that year. Nice solid yellow that goes great with the cover. The only bummer are all the price stickers on the front cover. I guess in the '90s people just didn't care about the condition of records that much. I got it for pretty cheap thought, so that's okay.
