WARNING no.8
THE OBSERVERS
"So What's Left Now "
10 song LP
11 song CD

The debut full length from Portland's The Observers. This is an amazing record, folks. Moody yet melodic, dark but catchy. Here's what MAXIMUMROCKNROLL had to say:

"I'm sure everyone who's heard this LP has a completely different interpretation of who and what they sound like, but I guarantee you that we all agree on one thing: what we have here is something very special. To say that I believe that this is one of the best punk records ever to be recorded is not overstepping the mark. Any band that can inject the sharp poke-in-the-eye brashness of WIRE, the driving melody-with-a-twist of the ADVERTS, the heavy atmosphere of THE FITS (to a lesser extent), THE FALSE PROPHETS, and even add some of the brooding twang of THE WIPERS, while still sounding original deserves every friggen accolade you can throw at them. If you went completely gaga over NO HOPE FOR THE KIDS then this will tickle you absolutely silly. Album of the year. Unless a certain band from Denmark makes the deadline, I can't see anything knocking this off. I send my love to Portland for yet another punk rock treasure." (Sean Dougan)

The entire first pressing of 600 LP's are on red vinyl! The CD has an extra track, that sadly would not fit on the LP.
