i'm sorry, but i was given a promo of the chessie 7" and unless some pretty serious production work was done on these two tracks in the interim this is some of the worst music i've ever heard committed to vinyl. the production quality is so fucking bad its ridiculous--and not bad like distorto-aphex-alecempire-fuckoffmerzbow bad--just plain, normal bad. like, don't know what you're with the console bad, all dropouts and mono-flatness and thin, wimpy, inboard distortion, no grounding...that sort of thing. i remember listening to both sides and at the end of it just sort of wondering, "why would anybody release that?" sc
