I haven't heard a lot of this stuff since it came out, but the songs are burned into my head to this day. I realize now that Ribzy was way ahead of the curve, Los Olvidados was a wrecking machine, and Gavin O'Brien was the poet laureate of the concrete and urethane set. It's amazing that a bunch of 16 year old kids decided to write the soundtrack to their own lives. How cool is that? Man, these Executioner guys are a self-promoting bunch, eh?

There was story on about an IRA faction blowing something up (or something) and he thought "the Faction" would be a cool name for the band. Whatever happened to Burnie Nyuren?

We produced Growing Pains as a tribute to the south bay punk scene. It was only produced on cassette and the rights to songs remained with the collaborators (the bands). I am cool with you allowing free downloads as long as the artists themselves are OK. Keep it going!
