Tapes, Tapes & More Tapes!

By Josh | Published 01/17/2011

This is another one of those tape collections that looks like it could have been mine with the exception of the Rollins tape because I had that on CD.

I actually got a promo of that Rollins Band album from Henry when he came to the Newbury Comics warehouse for a visit/promotion stop. His record label bought everyone in the warehouse pizza and we got to hang out with Hank. I got a copy of “Get In The Van” signed by him that day which I still have.

Two best things I remember about that day:
1. When we walked into the big conference room where all the pizza was someone said “The vegan pizza is at this end of the table” and Henry said “Yeah for all the pussys”

2. Usually when someone ‘famous’ came to the warehouse they would let them look around and if they found something they wanted they could have it free. I remember Henry being super psyched and taking 3-4 Wesley Willis CDs that he said he had been looking for.

barfight has a few more cassette lots up so if you’re into that check them out!

Cassette Noize – Metal Edition

By Josh | Published 01/12/2011

Here comes talbe1019 with more cassettes from my childhood past! I think I had all of these and I probably traded them in for other tapes at a store on Main Street in Milford, MA called ‘Comics Records & Fun’. Any of you other New Englanders ever go there??

This is my favorite Sacred Reich album by far and the last track ’31 Flavors’ is so dated that its even better now then it was back then. Come on, a thrash band doing a total funk/rap metal jam. Doesnt get more early 90′s then that!

I remember having this cassette and LP back in the day and thinking it was so punk to have a song called ‘Fuck You’ and that was before I even realized it was cover of a punk song!

I always wanted to like Nuclear Assault more than I actually did. I saw them a few times and had a bunch of their stuff, but Survive is the only one that I really listened to a lot.

I used to listen to this album all the time and in hindsight, its really not that great. My favorite Megadeth album is ‘So Far, So Good, So What’ and thats really the only one I ever listen to at this point. It is funny to hear Dave Mustains version of The Four Horsemen though.

This album is probably even better today then when it first came out. If for no reason other than I appreciate it even more now!
