A valiant mastering effort went into leveling out the sound field for these 25 regional artists whom recorded over four different decades. The bands include the Skexies, Mace, Dumt, Potbelly, Unbiblical Chords, Outright, Sabre, Chump Change, Siknes, Accused, Coven, Positively Negative, Porn Stars of Horror, Stagnant Water, Alcojuana, Bad Spasm, Boxcutter PNW, Entrails, Xenn, Gutter Gourmet, Grumble Thorp, Bughunt, BigTop, Chicago Typewriter and the Evicted. A quality dual gender release featuring the female sounds of the Skexies, Porn Stars of Horror, and Bughunt combined with 22 male fronted bands, plus a few never to be duplicated tunes from the deceased members of Chump Change and Boxcutter PNW. Household units such as Accused, Coven, Mace and Potbelly garnish one’s attention. This release includes both the past and the present from four counties just north of Seattle to the Canadian border. 37 years in the making - A long overdue project!
