Freewill/Zero Eight One – The Adventures Of Johnny Six EP

Two bands from two different west coasts share this 7″. FREEWILL, who hail from California, started out in mid 80s and, after a 1987 demo, they recorded an album for Wishingwell records (ran by Uniform Choice members). Just as the test pressing was made, the label folded and the record never came out until a few years later Lost & Found records bought the rights and released it. The band had already split up by then. Some years ago they reunited and started putting music out again. Melodic HC/Punk in the vein of mid period Dag Nasty, Farside, Sensefield, Shades Apart,… Ex members of Outspoken, Strife, A-18, Done Dying,… Zero Eight One who come from Naples have an album out on Irish Voodoo records in California as well as a split 7″ with Spirits on Goodwill and soon another 7″. Three oldschool HC tracks in the vein of Betrayed, Insted, Battery, Sinking Ships, Ignite and Youth Of Today. The cover features amazing artwork by Bill Hauser (Antiseen, Our Turn, In Defence, Energy, Open Wounds,…)
