COO: Das Damen or Die Kreuzen

Yeah, listening to Mousetrap now and maybe the production just isn't right for them? Not that Wharton Tiers was some studio wizard on the first couple of albums, kinda muddy tbh, but something in between might have served em well. Just not as much fun here.

These guys prob should've been on Twin/Tone from the start. It put out like half as many releases/year as SST in those days. Looking over the Discogs entry Triskaidekaphobe deserved at least as much attention than, I dunno, a Brian Ritchie or Lee Renaldo solo album.

(As I type that, I hear "Somewhere Sometime" might as well be on Soul Asylum's Hang Time. Not an insult imo.)

woops...that should've been "Someone Somwehere". Oh, and the Marshmellow Conspiracy lawsuit/recall couldn't have helped anything, either.

I’ve been waiting for “Sad Mile,” from Mousetrap, to be discovered for a soundtrack or something…

Yeah, good one! Reminded me a lot of Soul Asylum's "Can’t Go Back" up until the psych solo.
