band of the week: Personal Effects

Postby 1981baby » Mon Mar 28, 2005 12:08 pm

band of the week along with song of week:

personal effects - so hard

they had two videos played on mtv, "I See Heroes" & "Nothing Lasts Forever"

their label in infinite wisdom has decided to post their whole catolog as mp3's here:

http://www.therefrigerator.net/music/pe ... smp3s.html

they put out albums/ ep's between 83 and 87.

excellent material. think fay ray vocally/ romeo void musically but BETTER!

prediction: "so hard" is likely the best track you'll hear this week


get it as well as the whole first 5 song ep here:
