Hope I'm Doing this right lol. 

Came across this tape a little while ago while lurking reddit, thought it was kinda interesting. 

It's one of Davey Von Bohlen's (Guitarist of Cap'n Jazz and Vocalist of The Promise Ring) early bands. 

It's very rough around the edges but it's cool seeing this weird middleground between emocore and screamo. 

If any of y'all know any other Millwaukee bands from this era or any of the history of this band let me know.

Yo this is awesome, the first couple seconds of this reminded me so much of Deftone's cover of Drive haha. This demo is great, love the vocals and also how the guitar sometimes sounds like a bell/video game. Their intensity switches are what sticks out to me the most, reminds of Calm because of it. I'm surprised there's so little information about them. All I was able to find was groups that the members later went on to do, one of them being The Promise Ring. I'll keep searching and hopefully find something. I know some more Milwaukee bands around the same time but not in this genre sadly. Always happy to find more though
