another day, another speedowax release. this time it's about a split release of two bands i never heard of before and ever since. deathbed and douglas. i threw this record into the basket on a whim, to add something interesting just because i was able to. deathbed plays some heavy straight edge hardcore, which every earth crisis fan should get happy with.
douglas on the other hand plays something pretty different. i fail to catgorise their style becuase it's something i usually don't listen to at all. it reminds me of jimmy eat world's 'bleed american' (reminds me that i really love this song, check the video!) or something i heard of at the drive in. unfortunately i couldn't find any youtube or bandcamp for these two songs here. still the band has some tube videos and you can check some other stuff instead.
and yet another vinyl colour and sleeve versions crossover going on with speedowax. if the information is correct, speedowax pressed 97 black vinyl copies with blue/orange sleeves and all numbered. then there are 150 copies on orange wax. 25 copies of these were given green sleeves and another five copies got a record store day '12 sticker on the front. that means i have a copy out of 120 orange vinyl copies with blue/orange sleeves. speedowax. 2012.
