With 24 songs and 70 minutes of play time, this CD is a super sized tour-de-Bar-Sinister. Riding an eclectic wave of sound from furious punk to rockabilly ballad, Simon Chardiet's uncopmromising guitar holds the sound together. It was recorded live (to 2-track) analog, no splices, edits, punches, fix-ups or effects were used; just raw Bar Sinister power. Recorded and mixed at Coyote studios in Brooklyn, where Rancid-with Simon Chardiet playing guitar on track 19 "Turntable"-recorded Life Won't Wait; Rancid gives Simon and the Bar Sinisters a shout out on another track of this CD. The Bar Sinsiters are Simon on guitar and vocals, Julian on drums and Craig on Bass. All tracks written or co-written by Simon Chardiet except for "Theme/Metronoma," written by the late great Zon Data of the Poptones Inc.
