Refreshing some files...
Well crap. I've noticed that a TON of files have disappeared and need to be re-upped, so I'm working on that right now. Let me know if there is something in particular that you're attempting to download which is no longer there, and I'll get on it. Thanks! -Mark
Long time listener, first time caller. I've got something you might be interested in. Sometime in the mid 90's I found a copy of a Fourth Grade Nothing demo cassette at a thrift store in Seattle. I picked it up because I liked their band name and had enjoyed their contributions to the Bio Dome soundtrack. Recently, I've been converting old cassettes from my collection to post on my blog, which focuses on the local scene I grew up in here in the Northwest, and since this one doesn't really fit in with what I'm doing, I thought you might want to post it. The quality's not the greatest, being from a cassette and all, but it sounds pretty good considering. I really wish FGN had enjoyed wider exposure during the lifetime, given the chance I think they definitely would have stood out as one of the better bands in the pop punk wave that washed over the land in mid 90's. I also included a scan of the sleeve and the cassette itself: http://www.mediafire.com/?lc819iaplk33j3w
What a great find this blog is! Its like I just discovered my entire adolescence captured in a blog. I was just wondering if you could fix the Objection self-titled link. Also, I've been desperately trying to find The Fuckemos "Lifestyles of the Drugged and Homeless." If you happen to be sitting on that I would be forever grateful for an upload.

Inspired by a facebook thread of people posting mediafire links to their favorite 90's Houston & Austin punk records, I felt like these links should be available for everyone... so I've started putting them (as well as a bunch of other Texas stuff) on this blog.
Please post requests in the chatbox, and i'll do whatever I can to find them. Please also let me know if any of these links go bad, and I'll refresh them.
If you have links to things not yet posted, send them to me and if they're relevant, I'll put them up. If you want to send records to us for possible inclusion on the blog, please drop us an email.
If you are the copyright owner of any of the mp3's posted here and you would like the link taken down, please let me know.

ReplyDeleteWould love it if you could re up the first two albums from the Rhythm of Black Lines discography. Thanks for what you do. - Marty
