Descendents much? I mean one look at the album cover and the title and you have a good idea of where Baltimore, MD’s Deep Sleep’s influences reside. Three Things At Once collects the band’s first three seven inches and puts them on CD just for your listening pleasure. So, if you still have your shrine to the Circle Jerks and still love all your 80’s hardcore records I would advise you to get into this. 21 songs in 25 minutes and there you have it.

Sterile Walls Black Vinyl 7″
Honestly, I can’t ever remember a new band reminding me of Boogadaboogadaboogada!-era Screeching Weasel but that’s exactly what Psyched To Die have done on Sterile Walls. Think Circle Jerks, Screeching Weasel and Descendents with their pop radars turned down and the punk knob turned up to eleven. Psyched To Die are comprised of members of The Ergs!, Forward To Death and For Science among others. This is a breath of fresh air and reminds me of the type of bands that initially brought me into punk rock in the first place. For fans of snotty punk with a nervous tick this is highly recommended.
