They are some of my most dedicated and sincere people I know... They're also a bunch of basket-cases - as manic and bi-polar as their music/lyrics...

I am looking at boxes and boxes of "Into the Wire" CDs, LPs and cassettes, yes, cassettes, as I type. Stickers too. Not sure if Edison's CEO is aware of a Candlelight reissue.

All I remember was within the first few seconds I could sense the emothional weight of this beast and it didn't leave my cd player for weeks which is saying a lot. It still gets played all the time to this day. I was stoked to see it here today. Does anyone know an accurate release date for the Crossbearer/Into the Wire Candlelight reissue? I heard Jan, 23 but that can't be right.

While they probably won't replace the usual suspects among my listening habits, Starkweather could easily get in there from time to time. Another one to add to the list of possible purchases when I get a chance.

I actually really prefer the Crossbearer album to this one, and prefer the earlier versions of the songs they rerecorded here, especially Murder in Technicolour. Their guitarist has a really cool, distinct style. It was great to hear where they took the Slither riff from this album on Croatoan... brutal! Incredible and totally original band.

Fucking great track. Good taste! And glad to see these guys finally getting some rampant appreciation here, heh... Oh, and Chris, I'd say go with listening in chronological order, screw it. That way you can see how they developed over the years and choose your own favorite(s). Fergus, same here, man, "Above the Rafters" is my other key favorite (along with "Wilding").

Definitely a tonic to the amount of shitty hardcore that was and apparently still is doing the rounds.
