For some reason, the last BLOODY GEARS recording only seems to have surfaced on cassette. Obviously I'm fine with the format, it just seems like a final offering that is this good warrants documentation on wax. They go out as they came in, with hard hitting and intensely melodic punk drawing equally from WIPERS and MOVING TARGETS. Bass line/s in "The Stain" are worth the entire tape on their own, as are guitars in "Burial Hymn," and both seem torn between the incessant drive of Ryan's drums and the desperate raspy drag of the vocals. An absolutely killer band who went out just as good as they came in.
