Actually, I meant all of them. Only wanted to post one album cover so picked one that I haven't used yet.

Oh, and there is going to be a 7th volume, of sorts. That one will be specifically for animal rescue in Japan. Again, more details later as they come in.

I was unable to find the reissue thread so I will post this in here.

"Chalk Circle existed in the Washington, DC metro area punk/hardcore scene between 1981 and 1983. They were the first all-female rock or punk band to ever
record and perform in DC, and their recorded output will finally be available in one place: on the Reflection LP, released by both Mississippi Records
and Post Present Medium. The twelve songs on this release are from compilations on Outside Records and WGNS, live shows, and unreleased recordings.


I never expected this stuff to see the light of day.  It's a bit of a tough listen - probably more important as a document of the early DC scene than as something I'll listen to repeatedly - but it's well worth checking out.

The Red Button have a new record come out soon, which will be of far more interest than Rage Against The Microwave…

I know that Justice has a new song out, and I'd assume a new album to follow too.

Agreed.  It sounds just like a Feelies album.  Which is a very good thing.
