I feel like NoVa was more towards, DC, Dischord, TeenBeat etc.

I just checked and the Connells, decades later, are STILL hitting the southeast club circuit pretty hard!

Fuck, that 2015 video hit me pretty hard.
Same.
Discovered them on the More Mondo comp of North Carolina bands. "Darker Days" really struck me and I tracked down the album, which never really clicked. Need to figure out if the MM recording is different than the album.

I'm fairly certain that the MM version is the same. BUT.
There is a UK and a USA version of Darker Days. I have them both but I don't think they were remixed (different track sequence, and if memory serves, maybe an added song on one or the other).

I was in Louisiana at the time and we had Cowboy Mouth and Better Than Ezra doing the college circuit. I was so envious of the south east to have better bands than we had. I'd take the worst Connells song over the best songs from either of those two bands.

TVT reissued it in the US when Boylan Heights came out.

Sorry I was living in the UK when this was released, so it was certainly a huge hit there.
