The Casualties - 1998 Recording Session (unreleased)

Oh the Casualties.  Still here after 27 years kicking around in some form.  Here is, in my opinion, their strongest work.  This was recorded with the same line up as For The Punx.   Redone are a few early songs and you can hear some demos of what would become tracks on Underground Army.  3 of these tracks were taken and used for an ADD records compilation that came out later that year.  Enjoy the jorge-only version of "Drinking Is My Way Of Life", a fine anthem to have pumped into a fucked up teenagers head!

Usual Suspects + 97 and 98 Demos

Usual Suspects were a local band who frequently played the Cove in Roselle NJ.  Heres an unreleased (maybe unfinished?) tape I found that also had the original Demo dubbed on it at the end. I restored the latter the best I could but you can see what time has done to a second/third generation copies cassette.
