pressing the "rock balls" button!
berzerk & the crumbs are in the studio as i type recording for theyre ep and full length respectively. berzerk-this silence kills 10"/cdep will (trust me ...please) be the bands best work to date! i heard some instrumentation while acting out the bit part of executive gopher,tito rabit is still up in pdx's A-hole making sure the "this shit fuckin rocks dude!" button is always pressed. while i havent heard any of the crumbs yet im pretty damn sure its gonna be slice your nuts good! i think theyre last album was brilliant,they have the balls to totally re-invent themselves,instead of sticking to the "baby formula"(hey thats my new definition for albums that bands keep remaking over and over again only to keep theyre sheepish fans happy enough to keep buying,fuck you).well they are in austin,tx right now going for it. both releases are planned for november so keep your eyelids sliced off.
your money=hand it over!
toys that kill,as you may or may not know, will embark on a little tour with berzerk *click here for dates and desperately need your hard earned cashola for reasons certain lawyers wont allow me to spread over the world wide web.ok thats all.

trusty editor is 100 feet up hugging a damn tree!
thanx lots to all that attended the last FYP show (and the shows surrounding it). t'was indeed one of the best show's ive been to or played! there's something about packing a club with all recess bands (whom kicked most serious ass!!!) that sits at the forever fine spot in my belly. me good at reflecting.ahhh.
toys that kill will tour!
yes 2 weeks with berzerk.aug 27th-sept 7th or so.
crumbs to pappa?
most of you in recessville will be super excited to know that the crumbs shall have recess do theyre next full length! they will travel to austin,tx to record for it in august.no release date as of now but one will be posted in a week or 2 so you can get yer penny's in order.also look for a 7" by south florida's kings of not-so-new stuff that will also be on cd that will also include the alien girl (recess#15)
civic minded five get jumped in!
damp ink dont mean shit,so i announce the newest recess act.hailing from the city of sin,greed,blasphemy & untaxable twinkies,civic minded five say no to un-taxable vegas snack cakes and concentrate on pole vaulting the rock up and over this cess pool of boring crapolio! translation: civic minded five are good and recess will put out a full length later this year or (most likely) early next year. they just put out a self released cd (recess sells it too! good for you .hoooray for us).no sneak previews or tentative title on album as of now,although if they ask me i will name theyre record "civic minded five get like totally gnarly dude" LP. luckily they have good ideas of theyre own.
a funeral & a baby shower in one weekend!
well as most of you know ,rock band known as F.Y.P will be no longer, and to kick off the celebration there will be the "rarely believable,oh yea right" last show june 17th at the showcase theater in corona,ca. the almighty god-like berzerk,the sketchy with sanity like four letter words,and twinkie haters civic minded five will pop the champagne (pronounced shaum-pog-knee). the strange thing is the very next day the new damage called "toys that kill" (not to be mistakin with the FYP sound but does contain the players) will play the first show at the pch club in wilmington w/berzerk,cm5, & jag offs.go.
berzerk does indeed kill!
speaking of portlands bestest (and the rest of the world for that matter),expect a new side order from berzerk in form of 7" and cdep.due out late this summer/fall,this will showcase the never ending morphing of the band,plus give a sample of the next,already anticipated,full length. go to theyre shows this summer,some are already listed on the site,but keep checkin' cos theyre going on a bigger-cover-more-of-country tour dont miss em cos of the silly little mistake of spending 99% of your time in a chatroom goin: punker420 "yea hanson does suck dont they?" punkest420" yea like totally,i betcha they lip synced at that concert" lilwhiner420 "my dad works at taco bell,he can get us free taco boats & twinkies"
test pressings are good,but not as good as the butcher album!
if you been a recessrecords.com devotee then you prolly already know that weve been having test pressing auctions on ebay.com.if not, well we are having test pressing auctions on ebay.com
commentary:tax twinkies,please

mailorder delays-aka be chill chompie !
hal ba dal is the only man handling mailorder.so since weve been getting tons of orders latlely and we still cant afford more mailorder staff (put the 2 together and it still dont make sense to us,really) it makes us frustrated too.the only things we ask,before you order,is to have patience(3-6 weeks worth of patience) & know that we have never(and never will) ripped you,the kids, off.
recess flashcard newslitter #71 fall/winter 99'/'00
top of the hour the F.Y.P riegn of error is coming to a close? yes indeed after 10 years plus of puking on someone else's shoelaces said punk band will call it quits.there will be one more(last)album(tentively set to release in jan 2000?),the swan song if you will,no well o.k.,the rock continue under a different alias. there might be one more F.Y.P show or something,i dunno.
prices schmiches youve prolly already noticed the increased mailorder prices for most the recess stuff.its been on the "lets consider it" boat for quite awhile now but for silly reasons such as the good ol'"weve never increased mailorder prices since recess started in 1990".thats just plain dumb,especially considering the fact that theres been a crapload of postage increases,pressing plant increases,printing,shit lets just say every motherfucker raised they're prices on theyre precious crap.so there. weve been struggling to keep in business the last 3 years and the last thing we need is vanishing recess.correct?prices go into effect as of now,but as of jan 1st 2000 we will send back $ and yer order if theres not enough.so i guess what im sayin' is that you can act like a braindead buffooniac that forgot to take the ritilan,or maybe even pretend that you didnt know about the price increase and only enclose enough to cover the old prices.if your envelope is postmarked before 2000 than your in the clear.,but dont be surprised if yer package is addressed to "the cheap ass retard"
recess moved again? yep,but this time just down the block to glorious "downtown" san pedro.we still have the same phone/fax numbers.the pobox is still 1112 torrance,ca 90505 and will prolly never change. gotta remember the tarters crappy!
recess newslitter summer 1999' #70
oki we havent updated ya for awhile now so i guess you can say theres awhole lotta stanka comin' at ya.well the brownie girls sold me somethin' really funny this lovely saturday afternoon,so on the benefit to help save some time for my upcoming " the brownie girls conspiracy" that will go down in an E.T.A. of about 22 minutes,i will be brief,to the point,no beatin' around stinky bushes,and last but not least,just wont waste your godamned precious time with grab ass remarks and insulting you libido.heres the deal:
top of the hour!> Beatnik Termites to release long awaited "bubblecore" album on recess! thats right punky,that new beatnik termites album youve been antsy in the pantsy about for like ,shit,2 years now will finally be delivered by the stork, know as recess,to you little bitches.i swear to god that the b.t.'s have been one of my favorite bands for like 4-5 years now.theyre too classic!yes,they do belong to the screeching weasel,queers,mtx family and they are damn standouts.i think its because of theyre 50's doowop infatuation.i swear tha fucko pat kim could easily kareoke the ronnettes "be my baby" and leave the bar with 5 sweaty men cos they were damn convinced that pat was ronnie spector.or maybe its reggies insistence to mentaly outsmart bill stevenson and act all "loon like" on the kit.that or how he has to wear rubbermaid garden gloves while pumpin' gas.is it just on tour or does he stop into arco on the way to worked "prepared"?it keeps me up at night and when the rainbow arches ove.....ok i'll cut it out.anyways above mentioned "bubblecore" lp/cd/cass by the fabulous beatnik termites will be out may 18th on recess records,the luckiest label on earth for releasing wkefhgbdghttt1@%*@.ok thats it.
recess tour in august! 6-7 recess acts! TBA! (ed adendum note:yea right)
berzerk are crazy loons! berzerk just left californai,leaving a von's full of scars,tears,blood,sweat,and stank to all the so. cal kids,your cool aint ya,.i swear to shit that jo anne and mandy are the new joey and ducky(of dawson creek fame) to all the drooling lil boys on this side of the fence.i swear its annoying the shit out of us with all the pyscho "hey gimmie joannes #and street address cos i wanna go camping with her and tell her that i love her" emails.she dont have time for that honky dory,she has a street thrash band to attend to.they got theyre album "theyre after me" coming out on recess in une and then a summers worth of tours which,by the way,is a rare thing to know,i mean berzerk touring and cos they dont ever do it,with all theyre school,jockin off,wondering what kinda fellow scored this gank humbolt county weed for em.it gets really confusing to think about tour.so you best go and get all lovely dovey with your ass! this just in!!tyler,esteemed axe player of the berzerks,had a run in with the damage distributor.it seems that this cock eyed hero of buffooness was skating his girlfriend to the bus stop one drunken evening and beefed it(or bailed hard,ate shit,slammed,cooked a raod pizza etc etc)and severely damaged some tendons(is that right?)in his hand.first i heard that he wont be able to use it again but he was gonna go for the gold and make his 2 fingers that hold the guitar pick work,then i heard he will have surgery and most likely will recover quite fine.now if he aint the karate kid of punk rock than i dont know a damn thing.tyler massacre's gonna rock!
the jag off's and the four letter words get off theyre lazy asses and plan a tour for july/august 99'?!? yep thats right!
in sad news: evan cohen,cool ass bassist for furious george but the more i type and the more you read i will soon hafta write ex-cool ass bassist for furious george because he quit.ok?so evan quit due to personal reasons(thats all you get) but no hard feelings seem to be in the air.i will later on in this fabulous newslitter sing the theme for different strokes(fact!did you know that alan thicke of growing pains and thicke of the night fame,wrote and recorded and sang that damn song?!?) so now evans gonna concentrate on his writing most notably his baby "i was a murder junkie"-the last days of g.g. allin which will be in stores may 25th i believe. and george and michael are looking for a new bassist,which theyve prolly already found so stop emailing them,maybe.once they find the boy who bought the wonka bar with the golden ticket they will begin to record the 2nd furious george full length.i think you might be able to count on an e.p. soon,it depends.
mike quincy punx is back in the band! put it this way,i told bob q punx that mike would be back in about 2 weeks,just like a say everytime that bast quits the great Quincy punx band.this time,i'll admit,he went blue in the face for slightly longer,but ya gotta love that he eventually returned.he's too damn good at that drum shit,too damn funny,too damn sweet,and just too damn quincy punx for his own mothers good.so they will be playing shows now regionally in the comforts of the twin cities and touring this summer on the recess tour,and possibbly other short tours.if you havent picked up therye last album "nutso smasho" than do so,i say it everytime...deal with it missy!
the grumpies will return!?! will jayson & amy squabbel not?well i damn hope so!last word from jayson is that the grumpies short to medium hiatus might be tellin' the fat lady to get and go sing for someone else cos it aint over.truth to the rumour that they will tour this summer is something i would believe mm hmm.theyre album entitled "who ate stinky"(recess#55) is out!.love em?indeed.
buffoon like ramblings?! sex offenders still together!brad clean for 27 days!album finally out may 4th! jag off's/the four letter words split 12"/cd is recorded and its the best.out in nov. berzerk done with recording full length.it sounds great,it's not as metal as i thought it would be! out in nov 99' be on the look for the first recess video that will not be unlike a video magazine,thats like a new video every 6 or so months.who out there is already sighing thinking that we would be the last ones to keep up this cos according to you,recess are a bunch of lazy,drunk assholes.well you got another thing comin' cos craig flippy is in san pedro and the recess crew is ready.or you might be right.send any and all recess related video to us!now! the criminals lp/cd out sept 7th.it's got theyre first 7" and s/t 10" on recess,both out of print and included on this "gotta be havin' a ball" 12"long player or cd.speaking of east bays finest asses,they are or will be shortly recording for a new full length on adeline records so of course get it when it comes out ,ya know.(actually its out now!)buy it
