So it’s been a long time since I’ve updated.  I’ve been too fuckin’ poor to buy any new records, it sucked, but on the positive side I’ve been too depressed to care that I didn’t have any new records!  So cut the crap.  Time for me to rant about an other Richmond band whose 7” I got.  Word.  So, have you ever heard of Inquisition?  To some they’re a punk rock legend, whatever the fuck that’s supposed to be.  Some of the guys from Inquisition went on to be Strike Anywhere, I’m sure you can hear the similarity between the two bands in this song, called Fuse.  Band members also went on to form River City High and Ann Beretta.  Anyways, a couple of years back these guys reunited to play a couple of shows in Richmond… people came from as far away as Germany to see these guys play again.  This songis called Fuse and comes off their 7” Ideas Are Bulletproof, which I just happened to find at a local record store, Vinyl Conflict, for five bucks… which is a lot cheaper than I’ve seen the thing go for online.  Crazy shit.  The 7” is short, fast and enjoyable.  Though I think some of the lines are kinda cheesy, like in this song here where I believe Thomas sings the words “ But I will live until the day I die”… Uh, won’t we all?  Besides that the songs are fun and catchy and filled with energy.  This thing came out back in 1995 it looks like from what the record says and was put out by a record label known as Soundhole Records.  Growing up in the suburbs around Richmond, there was this great record store I used to go to known as Soundhole, I wonder if there is a connection between the two.  Huh.  Anyways, on this recording Inquisition was Russ, Rob, Mark and Thomas with additional voices by Kendra Feather and a Leer.  Check this shit out if you ever get the chance!
