Ennui Trust – Live in Studio A on KDVS, 2012. Davis, CA.
Songs: Pay It Forward, Life in Solitary, Human Baggage, PostModern PreMenstrual Blues, Magnus
Happy Holidays everyone! I really appreciate all of you who come and check out all of this stuff I post daily. Thanks to all of the people who have trusted me with their tape collections as well. I really enjoy this and you are helping spread joy to others, and it elevates my mood too. I hope everyone had a good day.
Here is one from Arica Pelino’s collection of audio tapes. One from her brother Mike- this is probably Mike’s tape, or right off Mike’s master. It’s short- cuts after only a song and a half. It sounds really good- I would have guessed that it was a studio recording if it wasn’t labeled live.
Recorded by: The band?

It’s audience participation time- this one comes from Barry Ward’s collection, and what you see is all I know about it. It doesn’t sound like the live in Berlin or Live in a Dive releases, and the between song banter gives no clues except the introduction of a new song that (I think) Riches to Rags. Anyone know where this is from?
It sounds great. I am not sure if it is a DAT source, as it cuts at about the 31 minute mark. It might be a master tape or reel to DAT.
Jason sounds a little ragged, but otherwise perfect.

This VHS was in the box of stuff that Wayne Vanderkuil handed over. It looks to be 1st or 2nd gen VHS, which makes sense as Wayne was/is good friends with the Stikky guys, and Chris Wilder is in this incarnation of MDC.
MDC 1992 are:
Dave Dictor (always)
Chris Wilder (Guitar)
Erica Liss (Bass)
Al (Drums)

I am not real big on celebrating Thanksgiving, but if you do “give thanks”, then we should all thank the contributors to Sac Music Archive for all of this amazing crap they send my way. Wayne Vanderkuil, Rick Sylvain, Doug Goodman, and so many more… including this guy Radley Hirsch.
I went over to Radley’s house a while back and he handed me one of those CD binders full of his favorite live sets. I ripped them to my laptop hard drive and this folder was labeled “Neurosis Asbestos Death see pic”. So I had to dig through old cellphone pics on my hard drive to find this image.
This is the “track 11/12” part of this CD. Track 1 and 2 are clearly released already.. but if any of thise other stuff has not been surfaced, let me know and I’ll get it posted.
For those of you who would like a primer, here it is courtesy of Discogs:
Early 90s band which included future members of Sleep, High On Fire, Noothgrush and OM. They released two 7-inch records in 1990 – “Dejection” and “Unclean”, both of which were reissued as “Dejection/Unclean” CD/10″ by Southern Lord in 2007.
After the second 7″, Thomas Choi left to form Noothgrush and band changed its name to Sleep.

I thought that this one had already been posted to YouTube, but James R Edmonds let me know that this was different than the Bluurg release. Thanks to James for taking the time to compare.
Zygote formed after Amebix split in the late 1980s and consisted of former Amebix members Spider, George Smutpig & Stig with the addition of former The Smartpils member Tim Crow.

Here’s an interesting one from Radley Hirsch’s collection. This disc was just labeled “Operation Ivy” with no other info. 4 tracks on this CD- There were 2 short tracks on the CD to start, then a long 30 minute track that seems to be a combo of live tracks and studio outtakes. 4th track seems to be all outtakes. “Hangin’ Out” from the Floyd comp makes an appearance at the 36 minute mark, and that is the only one identified as an officially released track.
Please don’t release this on bootlegs, you freaks. Who the hell would want a ripped-off-youtube-pressed-on-vinyl monstrosity anyway? Thanks.

Wow, after 1 day, that Suicidal Ruthie’s show has more views than anything on the channel that was posted in the past month. I mean, I knew people liked their Suicidal, but I didn’t realize liked them this much!
So for today, I’ll post the most obscure thing that I have prepped. I asked around and although Team Urinals was a local band from the 80’s, nobody can seem to recall who was in the band. So if you know, please chime in. I think they went to Roseville High School at the same time that we did.
This recording sounded even worse before I worked on it- I did my best to find some guitar and cut that infernal high end.

I think I EQ’d this in Sony Soundforge 10 and Izotope Rx8
