The Wipers Box Set

Wipers - Box Set

This album contains the Wipers' earliest and most revered works which were remastered in their entirety. It also packs 23 bonus tracks of alternate takes and mixes, outtakes, and live tracks.
The bonuses are great for dedicated fans who have owned the original albums Is This Real?, Youth of America, and Over the Edge. Listeners should not feel as if they're paying extra for them.
Thanks to Sage's lack of greed. You will be spending more money by picking up used copies of the three releases. The bonus tracks are actually worth the price alone.
You should have enough space in your collection for this band as it does for anything else. These three discs contain some of the most amazing, urgent, intense, and proficient music ever made.

This is with out a doubt one of the best buys I have ever had.
A great album. You must get this if you are a punk fan, Nirvana fan, or a rock fan in general.

The best box set I have.


Here is the link to Zeno records where you can buy it IF you want to (I suggest buying it. Does not cost that much. Only $17.00)

Poison Idea - Feel The Darkness (1990)

Poison Idea are one of those bands that are unsung heroes that basically went unnoticed. It is a shame less talented 'punk rock" bands and just less talented bands and artists in general became more successful than these guys.
The closest Poison Idea ever got to mainstream exposure was when Pantera covered The Badge for the soundtrack of the 1994 film The Crow.  Here Poison Idea successfully fuses the pummeling rhythm section of heavy metal with the three-chord speed and fury of hardcore punk and lace it all with hard rock and metal elements while this sonic stew is topped off with Jerry A's venomous vocals. Here Poison Idea created, not only their masterpiece with Feel The Darkness, but also one of the greatest albums of not only their respected genre/s, but also of all time.
