I did the all the artwork myself. FlexMyHead...hows come I never got credit for this? YOU ALWAYS HATED ME AND HAVE BEEN ON A MISSION TO GET ME FIRED AND LOSE MY 22 YEAR PENSION.

Right there in the middle, between Dag and Husker Du.

Do you have the 'More or Less' 7" on Mugglewump? That's one of only two Sleeper recordings I play on:

And g*d bless the interent - that someone would go the trouble of scanning the entire booklet that came with that thing, along with the actual record. I love stumbling across this stuff.

The history is that the label guy was prolly lazy.
I don't know if J Church had control of their cover either. We did play a show with them in Jon Hiltz (Born Against) basement once and it was a lot of fun. Lance was a VERY VERY cool guy. I was very glad to make his acquaitance and share record grooves with him. I was a honored, being quite the fan of Cringer and of course J Church. He passed away too young.

J Church were great pop punk, but Cringer had more of a weird edge/gritty aspect.

Midge, do you recall that Desiderata played a show on Staten Island (at the Red Spot)? I can't for the life of me remember how that came about, but I kinda think I was on the bill with either the In Crowd or maybe it was Sleeper?
Ringing any bells?

I like Cringer's Zen Bones, Zen Flesh 7" more than any J Church record and kinda for the same reason. You articulated it perfectly. The only time I saw Citizen Fish was in '94 and they played with Spitboy at my college.

This quest might take me a few years to catch up.

That is moronic. Getting rid of records is ALWAYS moronic
Never heard Spitboy before .... good stuff.

If blue cover/green text is 1st press, 1000.....is 2nd press is blue cover, white text/different font (yellow vinyl) pressed amount ?.....and 3rd press is Red cover with pink/white vinyl?
