Human Adult Band
'La Dee Frickin Da' (Abandon Ship Records)
Musicassette/c29
'Another slice of heaven from the kings of New Brunswick, NJ. Every time I see Human Adult Band I am reminded of how brilliant they are. They hold the key to a parallel universe where everything really matters. Not just some condensed forms of vibrating energy bouncing off one another. Human Adult Band understands things we never will. They know the unknowable. Now, go out and seek the unseekable. Or at least settle for staying in and listening to this tape.'
-Nate Rulli (Abandon Ship Records)

Human Adult Band
'Mugwort & Sage' (Scumbag Relations)
One Sided LP
'It is a murky glimpse into what this trio may be doing in front of other lost souls. Four bass plodding tunes that have as much heart as any no wave smacked true believers and really makes you wanna grip some frosty skuzz lose yr brain into the amp squall.'
-Thurston Moore & Byron Coley

"Return to Nothing"
Musicassette / c40
Drone mud merk recorded live @ Return to Nothing: A Concert of Extreme and Improvised Music. Also on the bill that night, Ginungagap, Sean Meehan, PSI, Andy Hawkins and DJ Teeth. The proprietor of Misanthropic Agenda Noise Shop says, "The recording is too poor, I would feel bad if I sold it to one of my customers." We say it sounds great. Especially cranked through a cheap boom box.

$7ppd Pots & Powercells
'Peace, Love, Pots & Powercells'
Musicassette / c40
Of th'...New Weird American classification of music. Loose, improvised, fudgerudgery. Members of Human Adult Band, Marie Henry, The Yets & others of th' Philly, NJ, NYC sandbox. Guitars, bass, electric shavers, kitchen ware percussion, voice. Cool, easy vibe, recorded under a bridge and in living rooms.
$7ppd Pots & Powercells
's/t' (Log Cabin Recordings)
Double musicassette / 2 c30s
These are not songs per se. It's free improvisation using guitars, drums, electronics and assorted noise makers. There may be some banjo and voice on there as well. It's def a weird listen, without completely loosing the rock element. Because it was recorded in living rooms of the band members, it has kind of a cool and easy living room jams feel. A few really 'out' jams as well.
$10ppd Sweatpants & Letting Yourself Go
"demo"
Musicassette / c16
Yeah...about 7 or 8 IMPROVISED (because it takes less effort) punk rockin' punk rock songs by 2 punk rockin' dudes. Songs about (burp) 'doing nothing', says Sweatpants' guitarist and singer, Justin McCarthy. T. Penn on drums...sorta.
$7ppd Thee Black One #1
"You Can Join Us"
Musicassette / c40
Toms, loopy synth & heavily distorted bass recorded onto a $30 Radio Shak tape recorder, like many T Penn & Adult Band recordings. Lots of distortion and room noise. Cut up, a choppy listen of distored bass blurrr and small town weirdo punk. Tape has early versions of 'Loathing Loaf' and 'Hot Hands', later recorded by The Human Adult Band.
$7ppd Thee Black One #3
"Show Me Your Instincts"
Musicassette / c40
Teenage coffee house performance. Space drone and faint drum machine. Yale Herald says, 'As Real as a kick in the teeth.'
$7ppd

"A Cacophony of Noises Made By Animals"
Musicassette / c40 More cut-up jams. Maximum Rock and Roll Magazine says, "Spooky Harbor noises"
$7ppd Thee Black One
"Cassingle"
Musicassette / c06
A couple of minutes of over driven bass/synth/gtr/vox dog droppings from a 2006 appearance @ Castle Puppy.
$5ppd Trevor Pennsylvania
'T Penn Sleeps in th' Lion's Den'
Musicassette / c08
Delightfully scraping th' bottom of th' barrel.....Trevor offers you th' lowest-fi spazz & thrash rockers, heavy gunk & sludge, vocal jams w/ boom box accompaniment & bass guitar de-construction.
$5ppd Trevor Pennsylvania & th' Enforcers
Teenage Parking Lot/Skeleton in th' Closet
Musicassette / c06
Two lethargic punk tunes from 2 members of Human Adult Band and 1 member of New Brunswick Hardcore's Vehm. 'Good muddy squall sound the way we like it. A perfect listen while working on our cycles in stinked-up Mutha Records t-shirts' says Thurston Moore & Byron Coley of Bull Tongue Blog.

Th' Music of th' Friends:
The Atomic Missiles
"World's greatest Band Ever"
Musicassette / c40
Four rudimentary over-driven 4-track punk/pop tracks by the self proclaimed "world's greatest band ever" --from their first year together and first year trying their hand at instruments. Trevor Pennsylvania on drums.
$7ppd Dogo & Crackerjacks
"Bast Demo"
Musicassette / c40
Wretched french pressed heavy. Cautious, destructive, repetitious....Dogo is a mutted strain of music hating women and a man (K. of 2673, ASPS and PIV) pounding drums. Festering sounds from a building that is falling down - total trance and mantras. lo-tech recording for fans of: shaggs, teenage jesus and swans. Full color j-card w/ pictures of the band. Some of Trevor's dearest friends.
