BLACKWELL'S RECORD OF THE WEEK

Young Losers

All Gone b/w Private Affair

scum stats: two variants, the "table sleeve" is the rarer one here

Young, loud and snotty with hand-written labels, colored vinyl (blue) coupled with a black-and-white photocopied sleeve and Saints cover on the b-side...was there any other way for a punk single to exist in 1998? I feel on the verge of wistful when I consider that this "style" or "approach" may actually just kinda fade away. I don't see kids doing shit in this manner any more. 

Life is LONG but time is short. So soak it in. What feels omnipresent or indefatigable is always just a generation away from disappearing. Live it while you can.

The opposite of sophistication. The heart of noise. Show me the door that leads to tinnitus. I won’t complain.
