I think the first record that really grabbed me was Household Name Records Number 5. The Kenmores's Potty Training on one side and the Griswalds's Legalize the Stupid e.p. on the other. I remember Brandon telling me that the Kenmores had a 7" and I of course had to have it. At this point all the records I had were from second hand shops or were bigger bands, but now a band from my town had a record? Wow! And the fact that there were 2 bands (!) on the same record. The concept of a split was totally foreign to me. But it made so much sense. I had never heard of the Griswalds. They were a band from England who are apparently still playing music which excites me to no end. One local band and another from England. My first split. I never thought $3 could change me the way it did.
So as far as I know these songs are lost. And that sickens me. So I decided I would rip them and make them available as the first installment of the Long Lost Seven Inch Club. I think one of the most important things in life is the punk rock 7 inch. I'm not entirely sure why they grab me the way they do, probably has something to do with the fact that they are usually about 3 bucks. This record was a pivotal part of the development of my musical tastes, so I would like to share it with you.
