Ethel Meserve - The Milton Abandonment


The now defunct Ethel Meserve hailed from State College, Pennsylvania. They were founded in the early to mid 90's and found its end in 1998. Between this time they released a demo, several 7''s, this full-length and a compilation cd which contains the demo&7''s. The type of music they played can be described as midwest-emo or indie-emo. If you like stuff like Mineral, Boys Life, early Get up kids, you will love Ethel Meserve.

Ferguson - In black and red


"Ferguson were a band that existed between 94 and 96 and consisted that were part of or went on to form bands like Crush My Calm, Mr. Willis of Ohio, Mine or Cataract. This one-sided 12” limited to 300 copies is something like their heritage released more than a decade after their break up. Ferguson play emotive hardcore between mid 90s screamo, revolution summer style and late Fugazi and taking into consideration that this record was recorded in the garage of one band member’s parents’ garage its sound is amazing."
