ltda 2 - List/Perfect Future split lp


With this record, two cliches come to mind: "better late than never" and more appropriately "worth the wait."

Perfect Future offer up 5 new songs that they recorded in December 2009.  A number of these songs have been played on their tours and on their most recent tour they made a cd-r version in order to have something new for merch.  This is also the last recordings with former bassist Clinton Kitzmiller and drummer Stephen Schrock.  The songs are what you have come to love from Perfect Future: loud emo with loads of riffs.  These songs are much more personal than political, so the sung/shout vocals fit the heartache.

The List side showcases the bands entire recorded output.  This short lived, Portland based band played emo that sounds like it came straight out of a time capsule from the 90's.  You're guaranteed to wear out the grooves on their side of the record.  Unfortunately, List broke up early when this record was being planned due to the deportation of their guitarist back to the UK.

You can pick this up at the new ltda store:
