Second Arrows put a song out. https://lambgoat.com/news/33118/Second-Arrows-premiere-first-single-from-debut-album It's not bad but any time I hear 'ex deadguy' members I'm hoping for Fixation on a Co-Worker part 2. It never comes.

the fuming mouth record is dope. excalibur is dope. whole heartedly agree about the mindforce ep seeming like a money grab. the lame cover art, the title, all just rubbed me the wrong way. Wish Mindforce didn't do it. Triple B is going for a streetwear/hypebeast vibe with carhart sweatshirts and hip bags.

weird seeing the revhq site look like that. Looks like another repress of the Orange 9mm and some new merch. Too bad the shirt is god awful and looks like a bad attempt at photoshop or something. https://www.revhq.com/collections/pre-order/products/orange-9mm-dojo-long-sleeve seriously what is that? should've just done a retro logo longsleeve.

I stopped collecting Shadow when his music mostly started sucking and he made his webpage with the massive shop grabbing money. Last big thing I bought from him was that 4 track era box. It could just be because Entroducing and Private Press are so good everything else pales in comparison however. Did not like this new track. Prize my original 2lp of private prison even though it's not rare. I didn't even know they did a repress.

new interview of Chaka: he talks about the MOV press and although he didn't know about it, he says it is 'legal'. He also mentions having some newly pressed 09 shirts. It comes towards the end.

Anybody still looking for Ghost World, be quick: https://www.dimple.com/p/28458139/ghost-world-soundtrack-2-lp-rsd-2019-ltd-to-3300 and gone. hopefully someone got one.

Cover art is god awful and Bill is very hit or miss since Hour of Reprisal but it he's got a new LP: https://www.fatbeats.com/collections/featured-pre-orders/products/ill-bill-stu-bangas-cannibal-hulk-hulkberry-swirl-lp-fat-beats-exclusive

That would be incredible but I recall seeing some interview not that long ago when Burn was doing the reunion and Chaka was kind of talking down about 09mm saying it had no direction/ was too corporate and that Burn was superior. This driver repress might be signaling something though. I think some demand would be there if they toured and put out some merch. I've been a fan since I saw them on the second stage at the first warped at Concord Paviliion in 1995. I still listen to Driver nearly 25 years later. I was bummed to see Chaka talk negatively about it. 'I think that playing a Burn show versus an Orange 9mm show, I would prefer the Burn show because Burn is, the word that comes to mind, is real. I'm not saying Orange 9mm wasn't real, but I think with Orange 9mm we did an EP in 1994 that was real and then we got a record deal. The EP sounds nothing like the album. I think the EP was more in that progression from hardcore and the album was trying to be something that wasn't really what we were. We had problems keeping that ship afloat. [Guitarist] Chris [Traynor] left the band to join Helmet. It was musical chairs with members and stuff like that, it is what it is.' http://www.noecho.net/interviews/chaka-malik-burn-orange-9mm

Been waiting for this but figured there was never enough demand. Also have an OG copy but this is one of my favorite albums of all time so will be buying. I love tragic but not as much as driver. Always wished for an 09MM reunion. I'm one of the rare people that loves 09 more than Burn.

Grabbed a copy this morning from bandcamp! Stoked. They put up some new merch on big cartel as well.

Anybody know where you can still get this LP or if any represses coming? Seems to be sold out everywhere.
