Wise Up

When I started out, I was not yet into the idea of getting multiple copies of records (Maybe because I simply couldn't afford it). My goal was to get everything on vinyl in at least one version and that's it. I would prefer the most limited versions, but I thought that it would be impossible for me to get every record in every version. As I wanted something similar, I started the hunt for complete collections of bands I really really like. I don't know why, but it happended to be Right Brigade (will tell that story later) and then Internal Affairs. So here we go with my latest addition to this obsession:

The Internal Affairs demo 7" with Wise Up Zine out of 50.
I already own this, but only without the zine. That obviously didn't feel "complete" to me, so I had to get another copy (now I have a zine-less spare copy for you). The zine contains interesting interviews with Matt Summers and John Joseph, the record awesome tunes by an awesome band that I truly miss. This makes the demo 7" part of my collection complete. Too bad that there is still so much more IA left to search for...

I love SFU!

Okay, let's start this with this one. The Barfight 12" repress out of 105.


Recently, i came home after a tough day at work and found a mail from Six Feet Under regarding this mailorder-only secret record. "Oh no, not again" i thought, as i missed out on the last one, because i wasn't able to order within 2 hours after the newsletter was sent...
but not this time - order placed and there it is. that i never had the chance to get the original 7" made this purchase even more interesting. besides the awesome spraypainted artwork with real blood (Dave - is it you??) the songs are all killers!
Definitely another proof that SFU only concentrates on putting out quality releases - Thanks!!
