VCR

Back from the grave by request! And surprised to see that things are still being downloaded at a fairly active rate even with me not being present. It's like this thing has gone total zombie status. Awesome!

So it was asked I put some kind of dancey/punk up. I do not have loads of that and had a few ideas of what to put up so I may put up a couple of things of the sort over the next while but I was just waiting and waiting for an excuse to post this. It does not follow the usual stream of things I post so it just always seemed so oddly placed to throw up. That is the VCR EP.

So.. Some years ago now I was a young highschool student working at CD Plus. I sampled music in store and picked up as many shifts as I could just to sample as much of the store as I could. I worked at a CDPlus teeming with some of the weirdest orders and a massive selection for the Punk/Alternative section. This CD just kind of floated into view. Simple name "VCR", simple cover, and song titles like "Rad" and "Bratcore." I gave it a shot and found myself grooving--A copy sold after one play too. So I ordered myself a copy and it's sat mostly buried in my collection mostly forgotten. But it still has the ability to make me groove and so I appreciate it whenever I dig it up.

Basically VCR is an electro group.. Synth, bass, and drums accompanied by shouty vocals. Somewhat !!!-like but totally oriented towards being played in basements and halls. I have a feeling this band would have been a fuckin party--The members are all extremely nerdy looking but they bring the beats that make you want to dance and not give a fuck.
Unfortunately I for some reason just picture them playing punk shows getting gawked at by weird crusty kids while they have their own little dedicated group of fans jamming away to them.

I have little to discuss about the band itself so I will just post the link now.
