Band: Brain Vacation
Label: Wall of Youth Records
Year: 2016
The third Brain Vacation 12” and the one where we finally got it right. Also the third release on Wall of Youth Records, AKA the third time I put my logo on my band’s thing. Everything clicked on this record: the best songs, the best recording, and the best art we’d ever assembled. Entirely recorded and produced by the band, with only the final spit-shine coming from hardcore hero Will Killingsworth who mastered it for us. I love how this album spans the entire ridiculous history of Brain Vacation — reaching from the hardcore punk band we ended up as all the way back to its beginnings as my Terminator-obsessed solo art/noise project — in under 20 minutes.
Released exclusively on “Blood Red” colored vinyl and available right here in the Wall of Youth Record Shop.
