| The Ledge! and Sandy Selig at Deadshits Festival, Nov 2010 |
Over the past two years The Deadnotes + The Legend! have recorded well in excess of 100 songs. "Why?", you might reasonably ask of this seemingly pointless exercise. Good question. No answer.
While it's taken us too long to whittle the first notch in the discography post, the timber was finally splintered a few months ago with an appearance on the '78 Ltd compilation cd released on Thick Syrup Records from Little Rock, Arkansas.

And indeed we are honoured to share disc space with some of our faves - Jad Fair, Mike Watt, Julie Cafritz et al. Ye Gods! Without whom...

Our contribution,"Real Bad Man", has been a mainstay of live sets over the past year or so. Here is a live version of said song (not the comp. track) recorded at The Zoo in March 2011 when we supported The (still righteously boss) Clean.
If you were up the road that night at the Best Coast show, the folly of your probable youth is excused, and forgiveness flows to you good friend. That said, probs for the best if you kindly exit this blog now.
The Deadnotes + The Legend! - Real Bad Man (live) by Kindlingrecords 
While I'm on a roll, plans are still afoot for the Room is Nowhere 7' ep on Soft Abuse.
This 5 track single is to my mind amongst the best material we've recorded. Hells bells, we even overdubbed a couple of parts. Sell outs! Jad Fair cover art, mindless expletives, double sax attack - well, could you ask for more in seven inches of punk rock? And if you did, what would be the point? I put it to you once again - there is no point.
Will keep you posted on release date.

Here is a gratuitous shot of a Deadnote with a Teenage Panzerkorps member only moments before the ceremonial destruction of the last known copies of The Legend!'s legendary 80s eps - lest they one day fall into the hands of an undeserving Nirvana fan.
Have another track. Unrelated to the aforementioned eps. What would be the point in that?
