Seriously!? 18 views and no one downloaded the album. Fuckin' gay. Not tryin' to be that guy, but why would you view a clearly labeled thread without taking the 20 minutes to download and listen? Goddamnit, now I'm that guy.

Honestly, it wasn't bad. The instruments could use some work, but the vocals have a very Poison Idea kind of style. I know it's only a 2-track recording, but the guitar could stand to be a little bit thicker. Not sure if there's a bassist, but I couldn't pick it out if there was. Could use some polish, but not bad. How long have you guys been together? Also, I'd recommend changing the name, it's a little too juvenile IMO. I'm sure you guys could be more creative in that department.

Thanks a lot for the feedback Corpsey. As far as recording, we didn't have a bassist at the time but wanted to kill some time in between gigs. We just used an overhead pencil mic for the guitar and drums. I started the band in July of '09 but we've had quite a few line-up changes so it's been slow going. Hopefully when we get our new mixer and mics next month we can work on recording a full length with our new line-up. As far as the name, I got it from the Send More Paramedics song "this crowd is crushing me". It was either Goro, H.H. Holmes, or Billion Headed Bastard. We went with BHB because I felt it represented what we're goin' for in our music. Beer, Pot, Hate, and Death. haha, thanks again man.

Yeah no problem man. I'm always interested in checking out what kind of punk other parts of the US are putting out.

Heard a bit of one track. I'll listen to more later but it was pretty badass.
