No. 16 COUSINS OF REGGAE "We have the same last name" cdr
ive recording of the cuzzins playin' a gig in january that the dudes didn't even know about until the day of. think they blamed it on "not gettin' the email" at the time but thats cuz they'd been hangin' in the swamp, day and night, working on perfecting their graffiti skillz. with a little help from the sskulls bros, the cuzzins packed up their gear, walked across the street with it on their backs, set up, and jammed one for the ages. thirty-six minutes split into two tracks. one, has hargreaves on guitar and thurston on drums. two, is the opposite. some people just don't understand the cousins of reggae... let's be glad that we're not them. spray painted card stock jackets. photocopied artwork. hand stamped cdrs. numbered edition of 44.
