stillsuit "green spock ears" (1995)









stillsuit was one of those NYHC bands of the early-mid 90s that really didnt fit in with the vast majority of bands in that scene soundwise......instead of copping the tough guy attitudes of peers such as madball, VOD and warzone they went down the grooving, noisy and emotional route favored by bands like die 116, atlas shrugged and burn.....excellent stuff. these dudes also put out another full length called "at the speed of light" which is rockin in the extreme as well....

cloudrat


















BROTHERS.




i have zann's full set on video, as well as cloudrat's and most of black kites set. i accidentally deleted the positive noise/great reversal sets when i was trying to make room to record zann's set. hopefully i can get that shit uploaded soon.

PS: john from zann is the nicest dude youd ever wanna meet. black kites dudes are amazingly awesome in person as well. actually every fucking band had important shit to say and were just all around awesome.

i always get amped and mentally/spiritually recharged when i see a show as good as this was....everyone having a great time and no one was an asshole....it was a really nice break from the usual......bringin me back to all the shows i attended in the late 90s/early 2000s. 


much love to all who attended and those who set it up (jeremy) hopefully ill be back to support you all again  soon!
