"Having just
broken into the Top 200 in college radio, this new band is on a
roll. Take the noisy, artsy, garage sound of the likes of Drive
Like Jehu and Unwound and you get where Hell Mach 4 is going. Discordant
guitars, yelled vocals, and building, driving rhythms, an indie
rocker's dream come true."
- LumberJack Distro

Divid
of Trend is Dead was kind enough to do a comp
cd and asked us for a song. We sent them Firestone for the Trendy
cd. Recorded at Glass Hand Studios by Mark Miley in the summer of
'96.

Shawn Moseley
of Lakeside records released "Beg" on the Compatability of Dissonance
compilation.
It features great bands from Atlanta. We were the only out of town
band on the cd but we live in Atlanta now. Beg was recorded by Mark
Miley at Glass Hand Studios in Richmond, summer '96.
|
| We
met Divid on our our first tour and he enthusiastically asked if we
would put a song on his upcoming comp for the Trend Is Dead Label.
Promised Land was the song labeled on the tape; however, about half
of Delta is what you'll hear. Recorded by Clancy Fraher (The Technical
Jed) and Rick Tubb (The Waking Hours) in their basement with a reel
to reel 4-track and some good mics during the spring of '96. |
 |
The fall tour of '95 was
very kind to us. Our next two releases were the product of one of the most
fateful events of our career; a house show on Hampton Street Atlanta, GA.
Here we met Chuck, Russ, Paul, Thom, Brian and all ( y'all rock!). Chuck
and Russ asked us if they could put out a 7". The rest is history!
 |
The
7" was a split with our friends Stinking Lizaveta. Their track is
"Some Go To Hell", ours is Promised Land. The original idea was to
write a song called Others Go To Heaven for our side of the split.
Well, Others ended up clocking in around 30 minutes so we went with
a little shorter song. Promised Land was recorded by Clancy Fraher
and Rick Tubb in their basement. Click on the image for some kind
words. |
The
12" is an ep and was initially titled "Time

Elapse Of Human
Transformation And
Sound Transition". The first few hundred inserts have this title but
in general this album is considerd self-titled. Each cover was hand-made
and screened under the artistic direction of Dave Sanchez, and no
two are alike. We made some cassettes as well. We discovered after
tour that a few were a bit damaged, we apologize if you got one. Some
of the tapes were corrected and Promised Land was substituted for
Columbia 17. The songs were Showdown, Delta, Morning Glories, Columbia
17 and Preacher. The first side was recorded by Clancy Fraher and
Rick Tubb in their basement. Side two; Morning Glories by Mark Miley
at Glass Hand Studios, Columbia 17 by Chuck P and Brian Kinchelo in
Chuck's parents basement. Preacher, by two kind souls in Chicago.
All songs were recorded between the fall of '95 and the summer '96.

Our
first release was a self-titled cassette tape. Dave Sanchez envisioned
hand-making the covers with cardstock and paints. We hand wrote and
rubber stamped each and everyone. These are no longer available, so
if you have one, hang on to it! The songs were: Father's Day, Preacher,
StringJoint, and Cardinal. We toured the U.S. and Canada with only
this cassette. Thanks to Mark Miley at Glass Hand for cleaning it
up a bit and letting us use his tape decks to dupe off a few hundred.
Recorded by Jason Greschke (Fullflej) and Trevor (Human Thurma). Jason
brought his 8-track Tascam to our practice space at the music mall
on Broad Street, Richmond, Virginia. We mixed the tape in his bedroom
the summer of '95. |
