Over the Summer, I was listening to a lot of Foundation, and it influenced me to load up my daily playlists with a bunch of mid-90's hardcore...Earth Crisis, Chokehold, One King Down, and especially Culture. Seemed like I couldn't listen to Foundation without immediately following it up with Culture's Born Of You album.
I don't think that I ever really listened to this album that much when I bought the CD back in 1996. In fact, I think I've only listened to it once or twice over the past 15 years. These days though, I am loving this kind of Vegan Straight Edge stuff. Even though the album cover for this Culture LP is one of the worst, I still desperately needed a copy.
Mike Warden used to run Conquer The World Records, and when I saw that he had a copy of both the blue and the orange vinyl on eBay, my mission was to win one of them. Truth be told, I wanted both of them, but in the end I settled for just the blue vinyl pressing.
As is often the case, this dark blue vinyl looks better when held up against the light.
Never really got into this band. Think I used to own this on dark red vinyl many moons ago, but sold it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a surprise to see this one on your blog! I think the Good Life pressing looks better. Although I have this in my collection also. I used to have it on red also but I sold it, to keep only one Conquer The World pressing. Still looking for the Good Life on clear also. I was more into their other recordings back then, but this one is regularly on rotation. Got into this full-length later on.
