Official press release:
The volume assassins at Tankcrimes Records are pleased and honored to reissue Sweatin’ To The Oldies and Sweatin’ 3: Skatin’, Satan & Katon from iconic, now-defunct hardcore punk/power violence trio, Spazz, on CD and digitally this Spring.
Originally released on Slap A Ham Records in 1997 and out-of-print for fifteen long years, Spazz’s Sweatin’ To The Oldies is a must-have ear-bleeder boasting sixty-four tracks compiled from splits released with Charles Bronson, Brutal Truth, Rupture, Floor and more from 1993-1996 as well as Spazz’s debut EP, tracks from various comps including Better Read Than Dead (1996, Epitaph/AK Press), cover tunes and live cuts from KFJC and 924 Gilman St.
Initially issued on Slap A Ham Records in 2001 and out-of-print for a decade, Sweatin’ 3: Skatin’, Satan & Katon offers up sixty-seven Spazz tracks compiled from splits with 25 Ta Life, Lack Of Interest, Hirax, Black Army Jacket, Gob and more released from 1995 through 1998 plus the Tastin’ Spoon EP and tracks from a host of compilation appearances including Short Music For Short People (1999, Fat Wreck Chords) and the original motion picture soundtrack for Gummo.
Both releases come remastered, or in some cases mastered for the first time ever, by Dan Randall (Ghoul, Impaled, Voetsek, Temple Of Dagon et al) at Mammoth Sound. Additionally, the Tankcrimes editions give Sweatin’ To The Oldies and Sweatin’ 3: Skatin’, Satan & Katon the digital treatment for the first time ever. Believe it.
