remembering the fireballs (part 8)

by Lync

supported by

Justin Stone Essential. It's nearly a miracle this anthology exists alongside the masterpiece These Are Not Fall Colors. I only wish there were 10 or 100 more of these albums, but that's what makes Lync ring -- there is no other. Brilliant band, every song good & weird. Hard & warm. Hoping for a vinyl reissue someday!

James Kelso I FOUND A FEATHER Favorite track: hands and knees.

k1d great compilation of stuff that didn't appear on Fall Colors, this is truly one of the early greats to come out of Olympia and the influence it has had is palpable. Favorite track: two feet in front.

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
