network of terror!-We hate your freedom CD, Tour Weenie 3"CD, split 7" with the disease, split7" with xECFCx and demos.

I had the pleasure of being the second of three bass players for this band. Afrind of mine told me he was playing drums in a grindcore band and i checked out the 3 song advance they had recorded with Jamie King (BTBAM recording guy) and later I ended up joining after the original bass player left. This band didn't go as far as it could have due to everyone being busy with school having babies and sharing members with the Crimethinc band Requiem. We sound like a cross between devola and creation is crucifixion. plus instrumental demos are included. I fyou like it contact luckcreature records so scott can recoup his money for the disease split.(sc)

Sharazad- Shahrazad was formed by 4 friends who wanted to play pure emotional hardcore. It was Raw,Powerfull and Real. The music was our outlet. We each brought our own style to this experience which made it what it was and always has been..PURE. This is just a page that i'm creating to give people a chance to hear what we had created in hopes to tell our story. I always cherished the times that I had with those three guys. We all remain friends however, our lives have taken us in different directions. I know that I can honestly say that I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for Shahrazad. I just would like to say thanks to all of you for sharing the experience with us........xk.d.cx -from myspace. Contains split and 7inch songs.(sc)

CLIKATAT IKATOWI

Clikatat Ikatowi was one of San Diego’s most celebrated bands. They helped maintain the city as the art punk capital of world. They created twisted yet naturally flowing works in a broad range of styles. Ranging from lightning fast and huge, to stripped down, spacey, and lethargic, Clikatat’s songs were always engaging and mesmerizing. It wasn’t just their excellent compositions which made them everyone’s favorite band but also their superior musicianship. Mario Rubalcaba, who has gone on to play with The Black Heart Procession, Thingy and Earthless, is simply one of the best drummers around. He plays unbelievably fast and complex parts with taste and style. Guitarist Scott, who previously played for another Gravity band, Heroin, often conducted meandering, noise-filled experiments without compromising structure. He also always knew when to keep it simple, and to compliment the other members. Cutting-edge yet organic, they were one of the best.
