Blah Blah Blah

In the mid 90’s I hung out on the Posterchildren email list.  One of the favorite bands was Calvin Krime.  Since this was before the days of Napster and mp3s, I never had the chance to hear them.  A year or so ago I found their two albums and an EP on emusic, and since I had a few songs left in my monthly allotment, I downloaded the three song EP, “Three Songs By Three Kids For Three And A Half Years”.

Damn if it wasn’t the rockinest thing.  Well, the first two songs at least.  The third track is pretty good, but it’s basically a throwaway instrumental.  A few months later I went back for more, but I found that pretty much everything else was mediocre or just plain bad.  The EP was the last thing they put out before splitting up.  The front man went solo as Sean Na Na, and his stuff leaves me cold.  Dunno, I guess they had that one magic moment.

Check out “Mascara” and  “This Sad Horse“.  Maybe you’ll hate it, maybe it’ll haunt your dreams…
