Poster Children - Classic or Dud?

They were real consistent actually. RTFM is my favorite.

So! New solo project from Rick Valentin.

Fucking right on. Man, I just checked their shows list, I can't believe it's been 17 yrs since I've seen them.

1997.05.07 Seventh Street Entry Minneapolis, MN Failure, Summercamp

RFTM had just come out, I had Junior Citizen but I don't think I saw them around that record. Anyway, it felt like years & years since I had seen them (probably like 2). I drove straight from my second shift job and walked into the Entry just as they were about to start and they just absolutely fucking slayed. I don't remember anything about Failure, I actually night have left becuz PC had torched the room so badly.

i recently added 'tool of the man', and 'junior citizen' to my digital archive.
this nudge could make me actually listen to them for the first time in a very very long time
cd edition : 'tool of the man' cover had one of those of magic eye images on the back.
for a few weeks i almost cracked that visual trick, but i very much doubt i could do it now.
actually, i have a couple of albums with magic eye styled artwork actually .. did this become a thing ?

junior citizen is currently sounding absolutely fantastic.

(i seem to recall finding 'tool .. ' somewhat annoying at the time, but i will find out later on .. )

great band one of the most underrated of the 90s

well, that was brilliant.
really enjoyed listening to 'junior citizen' again.
it must be over 15 years since i heard that.
the guitars are fantastic.
and despite the fact it was released a long time ago, (over 20 years !!! f*cking hell .. )
the cd sounds amazing.

first band on the internet!!!

(i don't know if that's true but felt like the first band to make a big deal about being on the web)

i think they might have had the first ever podcast.

Long may they thrive
