boston fucking straight edge.

I ordered a "mystery box" from Bridge 9 records a couple of months ago. For anyone unfamiliar with the concept, they basically did one limited 7" for each of the 3 options and along with that they throw in whatever they want, a kind of glorified lucky dip. I chose the "for fans of Have Heart, Foundation..." option and low and behold, the surprise 7" was a live one from Sound and Fury '07 from Have Heart, which I'm pretty stoked about. Limited to 500, the sound's pretty rough, but it's awesome and just makes me more and more anxious for their last show package I ordered. Along with that, I was lucky enough to get a vinyl copy of the label's own '09 summer compilation and 4 CD's, two of which being from Death Before Dishonour and Blue Monday, both of which I didn't already have which I thought was pretty cool, and two from bands I've never heard of that should provide some driving music at some point. As well as all of that, there was a ton of posters and fliers and junk. All in all, I'm pretty happy with it, especially from the A$30PPD that it cost me.
