You Finally Get To Hear My Favorite Metal Band!

Okay, my favorite LOCAL ONE MAN SOLO BASS & VOCAL metal band, but still. I know someone on here wanted to hear Anti, so I had Maria put an album up on her website. I'm gonna take it down after a week. I don't THINK he will mind, but you never know. I don't think very many people have ever heard his CD's outside of Martha's Vineyard (and even here probably), so maybe this will give him a nice boost of attention. Feel free to call Aboveground Records on the island and order one! They sell them for 2 dollars a CD. Anyway, Anti, from what I have been told (I haven't met him. I don't want to ruin the magic, although I am sure he is a hoot) is DEADLY SERIOUS about his music. And out of respect for his family, I will not comment further. I think he has a lovely sound. He moved away for a while, but now he is back here. I probably should hook up with him at some point as metalheads are an endangered species on this rock. Also, from what I hear, he has no desire to start a band. It's just him and his torment. Anyway, follow the link and you will know what to do. Maria made it easy, i think. i don't know about that stuff:

Anti! Scott burned me a CD of theirs/his -- it's wondrous.

I remember hearing a 7" by this guy 8-9 years ago. Did Anti put out any vinyl?

i don't think he's that old. but maybe. this cd is from 2002. he just sells them himself. no covers. just cdrs. that was an original copy, ned!

that last song "it's the jugs" is my jam

― jb, Wednesday, 7 September 2005 16:39 (twenty years ago)

it does sound like he says "jugs"

to delightful comedic effect!

it's a mix of the high and the low, like Sufjan!

(on a more serious note, I didn't mean to ruin this thread with that observation and if I have I propose an Anti and rogerhumanbeing summit where reparations can be discussed)

he used to work at the bottle redemption center, but i don't know where he works now.

needs to be a split anti/thrones 7"...

I'd like the bass a bit higher in the mix, but I'm this lots.
