Bored To Death

This quite possibly might be the most punk rock piece of wax i own. I bought this when i was 12 and living in redwood city. The olny place to buy vinyl was The Record Man (which i think has gone out of business). Behind the record man was planet mix, their annex store which sold used Sega games and 7" records. I found this for $2 before i knew anything about Recess Records of FYP. Later on i found out this was out of print even when i bought it. The first time i met Jason we bonded over this record, him being the first person i found who knew about it. mainly of the the lyric "I cry when i look in the mirror, but i laugh when i see your face. sometimes the only thing that makes me smile is to tell you that you're a disgrace."
This record sounds like a girl fronted FYP with an even more cynical outlook on life.

also, a bit of trivia: the singer for this band is a young annie rexic, who would later move to sf and form the amazing bands BLOOD AND GUTS PEP SQUAD and LEPER SEX KILLER ON THE LOOSE, the later of which also featured the amazing tracy lourdes of THE DEEPTHROATS and recorded one of the best rock 'n' roll records i've ever heard, but tracy went crazy and destroyed all the copies so the only way to hear it is to go on a long drive with one of his ex-girlfiends.
