Steve Nelson - Brothers Under The Sun - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Steve Nelson - Fuller Nelson [COMPACT DISCS] date 06/08/2004

1980s Newfoundland, Canada, was a dreary, cold, wet, borderline impoverished place to be a kid. But, through the love of all things dark and heavy, a beast was brewing. Bob Average was coming out of his parents' house one day when he ran into Rod Wills. Rod was carrying an Onslaught record and Bob was carrying Corrosion of Conformity's Animosity. More than a record exchange was made - Schizoid was born. With scene veterans Chris Jerrett and Danny Thomas (replaced by Don Ellis) and newcomers Phil Winters in the fold, the band borrowed their friend Dave Sweetapple's cassette deck and proceeded to tear through their set in Rod's parents' basement. The Total Fuckin' Mayhem demo was released. A year later, the band headed into Don's parents' basement and recorded the Datin' Satan demo, releasing four tracks from that for an EP on their own imprint DUPP Records. The four tracks from the Beer Thief EP and five more from that session, plus a live track, are finally seeing the light of day on Schizoid InchTotal MayhemInch in March 2026 on Tee Pee Records!
