Stompbox - Travis

This is the first Stompbox ep called "Travis" from 1992. It was released on Summit Records (which later became Wonderdrug Records) as a cassette only release. We named it "Travis" after our friend Travis Lindquist, who let us appropriate some of his art for the album cover (which is right there to the left).

Travis recently showed up on itunes with incorrect art, and of course none of us are seeing any money from those sales, so I decided I'd put it up here.

Most of Travis was recorded at The Lanes studio in Allston, Ma. It's far from a perfect recording, but I think it's a pretty good representation of what we sounded like at that time, which was a wee bit more metal than we'd eventually turn out. 

Tracks: What's it Worth, Chevy S-10, Hate Me, Beer Slide, Saltpeterexitwound, Lobotomizer, Screwing in America.

Many of these tunes were later rerecorded for the album "Stress" which was released on Columbia in 1994.
