HARBINGER

 


If you know....then you know, and I don't need to write any words. You'd probably like that, but I am going to do what I do anyway. Sorry. 
WORDS: I hate to call a thing a supergroup, but sometimes the shoe kinda fits. Not even a Bay Area supergroup though - an East Bay supergroup. Eggplant (BLATZ, Absolutely Zippo), Mink (FLESHIES, S.P.A.M., Geekfest) and Aaron (CRIMPSHRINE, COLBOM, Cometbus) teamed up for this live-at-Gilman recording in 1998 and a brilliant follow up EP on Riisk. It's pretty much exactly what you think it might be - raw guitar '90s East Bay melodic punk with a serious DILS bent. If you know, you know. But some of you might not know....and that's why I'm here. You're welcome.
