I was thinking about a CD gifting thread, cause I have a bunch of stuff that I couldn't get a shop to buy and can't be arsed with setting them up on EBay. Does anything exist on ILX like that already?

Yeah go for it. I'm all for a garage-sale/trade type thread.

The Seam and SWTLJ records are both really good, I'm just selling all my CDs. This was pretty much the last batch.

concur with the above 100%. one of the best gigs I ever saw.

i saw stlj on one of their last shows, wasn't super into it. i remember the drummer looking very stiff and hard to watch. i heard that record at a friend's house a long time ago though and enjoyed then.

I know I have enjoyed that Sweep rekkid in the distant past but not if I own it... maybe I sold it tbh

I never saw STLJ but I saw the sax player/singer's next band, called Zzzz, who were pretty good, though a little less math rock/punk. Then I think he moved to Costa Rica.

they also splintered into check engine, who weren't so hot but who did introduce me, by way of their support band, to zu - and therefore a lengthy love affair.
