    GROWN UP, FUCKED UP
    Reissue of the 2nd album of pure teenage attack from Jay Reatard, this time with Sean Albundy and Rich Crook playing guitar & drums, and recorded with Alicja Trout (Lost Sounds). For this reissue, Goner went back to the original DATs and tried to stay as close to the sound of the original lp as possible. The three incredible tracks from Empty's "Your So Lewd" 45 are included as well. Liner notes by Meghan Smith, Eric Friedl, and Zac Ives. 

    Put the needle down or push play on the cd player, and stand back.

    From the opening chords of "Blew My Mind," you'll be hooked. Complete classic garage punk explosion, Memphis style. 

    Listen HERE!

    1. Blew My Mind
    2. Alls I Got is R-N-R
    3. Sick When I See
    4. Lick on My Leather
    5. You'll See Me
    6. Sat. Night Suicide
    7. Heart of Chrome
    8. No One Stands Me
    9. Tonight It'll Come
    10. Get Outta Our Way
    11. Who Are You
    12. All the Walls are Closing in
    13. Miss You
    14. Eat Your Heart Out
    15. I Want Sex
    16. I'm Gonna Break Down
    17. Your So Lewd
    18. She Will Always Be With Me

    I remember getting Sink or Swim and knowing very little about them and being absolutely blown away on the first listen (I never should've traded that first press black vinyl copy). The 59 Sounds is fantastic, but it doesn't come close to matching the energy and urgency of Sink or Swim. And their shows after SoS came out were unreal (though, they were awesome when they toured in support of 59 Sound too).

    Seems pretty safe to assume that almost no one doubted Radioactivity's ability to follow up their 2013 Dirtnap debut with something equally stunning. Frontman and chief songwriter Jeff Burke (The Marked Men, The Reds, The Potential Johns) has certainly done more than enough to earn that kind of expectation and pressure. But Silent Kill, which finds Burke backed by Marked Men compatriot Mark Ryan and two-thirds of Bad Sports (Daniel Fried and Gregory Rutherford), does more than merely match the virtues of its self-titled predecessor.

    Radioactivity's first LP was rightly hailed as a sort of sequel to The Marked Men's remarkable run through the first decade of the millennium, and while Silent Kill bears the unmistakable hallmarks of that band's tightly wound "Denton sound," Radioactivity can now lay claim to a sonic territory of their very own. Burke's distinctive hooks dig as deep as ever, but the scope of his vision has expanded, and now that the Burke/Ryan/Fried/Rutherford all-star team has had some time to cohere, Radioactivity can do all sorts of damage in less than thirty minutes.

    Although the twelve songs on Silent Kill abide one strict rule--providing garage punk pleasure at all costs--Radioactivity bend that mandate in myriad ways. Breathless ragers like "Battered" and "No Alarm" are as fleet and raw as anything in the combined canon of Radioactivity's members, while mid-tempo heartbreakers "Way Out," "Connection" and "Where I Come From" find Burke and company opening up their sound to let in a little tenderness. And then there are songs like "Not Here" or "With You," which enact perfect unions of melody and kinetic energy.

    Admirers of Burke's legacy will be not only satisfied, but pleasantly surprised.

    If a record is released that I want, I'll buy it.

    I don't care about the sticker on it, the branding, if it's for RSD, if it's for Vinyl Friday, or whatever. Everyone is overthinking this.
    And who cares if indies aren't part of RSD? Indies seem to hate RSD now anyway. Yeah, your records may be delayed because of it, but if you don't want to participate, no one is forcing you. Put out the records you want and sell them how you want. If you make a good product, the right people will buy it. You want to create valuable customers, not onetime consumers who only buy your release because it has an RSD logo slapped on it.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again: "don't like it, don't buy it." No one is forcing anyone to buy these records, and it seems like not too many folks here are interested in them anyway. So, who cares? Labels and stores do this all the time. But maybe someone is stoked on the tour edition of a Beatnik Termites Ramones cover album.

    Of course it's more complicated than just that. But smaller labels still manage to get stuff out. Flood and Asbestos release RSD titles every year on time (and he's about as indie as it gets). Other labels do too. It's planning. Does it suck that some records get delayed so a major can repress a Fleetwood Mac LP? Sure it does. But is that worth boycotting the event and possibly killing your local store in the process? Most stores will tell you that RSD is their best day all year, and that it gets better as the years go on.

    The term "punisher" really struck a nerve with you. Just to be clear, not every buyer is a punisher, nor is every buyer who leaves negative or neutral feedback a punisher. A punisher is a buyer who puts unrealistic expectations on a seller, doesn't communicate their grievances before filing a claim or airing details of a bad transaction, or makes unreasonable requests of the seller, i.e. demanding a tracking number moments after paying and opening a claim if the seller doesn't respond within a day; freaking out over a minor scratch on a $4 record; constantly messaging about the whereabouts of a record when the tracking number clearly states what's going on; etc.... I've rarely dealt with punishment from buyers. And the one time I got neutral feedback it was warranted because I didn't notice an issue upon inspection. That said, reading this thread and others here makes it evident that there are a number of punishers among us.
    Like Derby said, if everyone adheres to the "don't be a dick" rule, all will be well.
