--- Quote ---I’d like to highlight a band that greatly impacted my high school years. I spent countless hours making cassette recordings of their 7 inches and records and used them as my crutch for the long walk to high school (actually it was only a 3/4 mile walk, but still). This band is Inside. Inside, based out of Lindenhurst, NY on Long Island, was a late 90’s emo band compared favorably to Mineral and Sunny Day Real Estate. Powerful and impressive vocals, thick guitar work, panning in and out of both ears beautifully, and some of the most well written emo lyrics I have ever found myself singing outloud in my car. I know the “emo” word is a label people stray away from these days, but Initial Records cited these lads as single handedly introducing the genre to the underground masses that eventually took over the late 90’s early 2000’s.

“7 Inches to Wall Drug”, released in 1998, was a compilation of their 7” releases spanning the first three years of the bands birth. The second I spun “Stumbled on a Penny” on my record player I was hooked. That song still gives me chills. The recordings arent the best quality but you can feel it. Inside’s last release, “My Funeral”, was the band’s swan song before disbanding in 1999. I still look to this record for inspiration because it’s just a gem. Production, guitar work, vocal tones, ups and downs, balads, breakdowns… it has it all. After the breakup, Inside went on to form bands like Blood Red, Babyteeth, Tinsips, Dearly Departed, The Movielife, and Taking Back Sunday. If you’ve never had a chance to check out Inside, please do now. Enjoy!

Polymaths - So Long Castle Road EP



In case some people didn't get the superb pop-rock record from this Canadian band, featuring the wailing of JohnnyC if I remember correctly.

This XXXY thing is pretty good.

DAN! o/

I had that on my old laptop and could never track down another copy when it went kaput. IIRC, Johnny's on the track about being a lumberjack or something.

What ever happened to them?  All I found was a reference on their Facebook page to them being "now defunct."

Red Sullivan - The Bridge EP



Some young dudes in NYC apparently have nothing better to do than to make some decent tunes and publish them on Bandcamp.
