1989 Arlington, VA. The first cassette of a band featuring folks who would go on to be in Thirty-Ought Six and The Bugs. Very much an artifact of the time & place, only better than you'd think.

Bugs-related project brings it with fuzzed out, lo-fi hits and moodier instrumental pieces. Obviously, we are biased.
