almost november

A while ago I made a trade with a friend.
He got two LPs and I got 3 LPs and 2 7"es.
Starting it off slow here is one of the larger pieces of vinyl.
Don't expect this trade to pick up to much steam though.


Shift - pathos 12" - 1994 Equal Vision Records EVR17























There are two versions out there. One is a single sided 12" that comes with a lyric sheet and the other is the one you're seeing here. As far as I know it never came with a lyric sheet but has songs on Side B too. Too bad it's exactly the same program as on Side A. Why make a difference like that? Does this make sense to anybody?

























Anyway. This is one of the best post-hardcore releases I can think of. Or would you say it's emo? I can't remember the term post-hardcore being thrown around that much in the 90s. When I first obtained the CD version of this rocker I thought of it as emo and I bet a lot more kids did so too. What a shame it became such a dirty word. But it doesn't matter what category you want to put this in. Fact is you need this. Just like I want a copy with blank B-Side and lyric sheet.
I love this shit!
I even saw them live once. It was in Belgium at the Cultureel Centrum in Dilsen if I remember correct and I think Earth Crisis also played that night. Or was it 108? Or maybe all of the above? Too many good shows happened there. It became a bit of a blur. Albeit a very fond and beautiful one.
