From Shaun, via Sounds Rad: “I got these 2 gems in the mail via Sounds Rad the other day. The Mr T Experience are one of my favorite pop punk bands; Every song is catchy and there’s a level of intelligence & wittiness in their lyrics that I appreciate. “These two records are filled with non-album songs, pulling from various compilations and singles from 1985-1999. While listening this weekend it dawned on me how much “Boredom Zone” sounds like the Adolescents to me. This was the first song I heard by MTX (on a Lookout! Records comp I believe) so the comparison would explain why 16 year old me loved it from the get go. “Of course the band didn’t write many songs like that and as the years went by the songs became even catchier and pulled possibly from some non punk influences along with punk influences. “It should be noted that The Mr. T Experience are still active and when I last saw them they played a great set like you would expect them to.” Thanks Shaun. here: https://www.soundsradical.com/store/p172/Mr._T_Experience_-_Shards_Vol_1_&_2_LP_Set_(LIMITED_TO_50).html #music #vinyl #punkrock #minds
