Decline / Numb

kenmishima To call this a hidden gem would be a bit of an understatement. The highlight of this entire project for me are the vocals (and painful lyrics) of the late Scott Kish, a victim of an unfortunate car accident in early 1994. His soft, almost innocent wails and moans echo and reverberate ceaselessly, amidst the backdrop of some of the most beautiful, heaviest, oppressive soundscapes you'll ever hear. Favorite track: Wild Earth.

about

In 2 short years, 1992 - 1993, Matt Durrant, Roy Felix, Ryan Ferguson, Scott Kish, Steve Peruzzi, Chris Pettingill and Sean Ramsay recorded a couple dozen songs and played several dozen shows under the monikers Bliss, Garden of Eden, Erotic Flower Circus and Gleet.

Most of those recordings ended up on 2 cassettes - Numb, self-released in 1992 and Decline, released by our good friends at Sonic Unyon Records in 1993.

At long last, these songs (and others) are available for you to hear - for the first time or again ... fidelity, at times, is sketchy ... fidelity, at times, is terrible - but fantastic fun none the less...

Most importantly, 100% of the proceeds from the sale of this collection is going directly to the Women's Centre of Hamilton - and we do mean directly - as in the sale goes directly to a Paypal account dedicated to their cause. So you are contributing to providing a safe environment where women and their children can convene, find security and, where necessary, rebuild their lives.

Many, many thanks to the folks at Sonic Unyon Records for being so supportive of this endeavour - it's also a tribute to them simply being amazing people over the years.

We love you all.
