Eddie & The Subtitles - Skeletons In The ClosetIt's 1980 in Orange County, California, and PUNK ROCK has been scorching the 'burbs for a few years. Eddie Joseph has been on the Southern California scene the entire time, plotting his poisonous rock'n'roll maneuvers since the mid 1960s when he began playing in garage bands. Eddie had been honing his skills on roots music and swinging teenbeat well in advance of his foray into a new, seedy, violent punk blitzkrieg. There's a master plan at work here,

It's 1980 in Orange County, California, and PUNK ROCK has been scorching the 'burbs for a few years. Eddie Joseph has been on the Southern California scene the entire time, plotting his poisonous rock'n'roll maneuvers since the mid 1960s when he began playing in garage bands. Eddie had been honing his skills on roots music and swinging teenbeat well in advance of his foray into a new, seedy, violent punk blitzkrieg. There's a master plan at work here, and it involves select players depending on which direction Eddie needs to bleed out of his system. The recruitment of Mike Patton and Matt Simon of OC legends THE MIDDLE CLASS get Eddie and the Subtitles rolling for a slew of shows with comrades BLACK FLAG, ADOLESCENTS, CIRCLE JERKS and every other degenerate crew in the radius. A DIY imprint called No Label Records is formed (with literally NO LABELS on the vinyl!) and the first single 'Fuck You Eddie!' is unleashed. Recorded in Fullerton by Jon St. James at his legendary Casbah studio (THE VANDALS, SOCIAL DISTORTION, BERLIN), these sessions also yielded a handful of tracks that would appear on the exceedingly rare 'Skeletons In The Closet' LP (No Label Records, 1981). 'Zombie Drug Killers,' 'No Virgins In Hollywood,' and 'American Society' (the short fast loud version covered by L7) appear here as the opening trio on this newly re-sequenced reissue. Geza X is also on board to produce a handful of tracks with peripheral Subtitles including Nicky Beat (GERMS, WEIRDOS) among the sessions' players. The results here are another manifestation of Eddie's one true love. Even as a punk allegiant, songwriting, sound and style are the priority. The dusted and dark goth-pop of 'Magic' and 'Stream of Consciousness' are crucial to the plot, setting a unique tone that works in a sea of one-dimensional scene releases, taking full advantage of Geza's synth-mimicking microtonal guitar techniques. A tribute to Dave Dacron, chief miscreant of Dangerhouse Records' RHINO 39 is also set to tape as consolation to X, as Dacron's 16 year old life was tragically cut short in an automobile accident in 1980. But the party rocks on with covers of 'Louie Louie' (also appearing on the elusive 'Fuck You Eddie!' single) and 'We Gotta Get Out of This Place,' as a testament to Eddie's obsession with the timeless now-sounds of his delinquent adolescence. Friends and fellow freaks Jon Blair (of surf cats Jon and the Nightriders) and Bobby Paine (later of rockabilly hepsters The Paine Brothers) lend their own song-smithery for four more originals: 'Boppin' Little Bobcat, 'Treat me Right,' 'Gina' (covered in 1984 by Josie Cotton and again in '89 by Stray Cats) and 'Your Head's In The Right Place,' respectively. 'Skeletons In The Closet' remains an unusual and rare artifact in the ashtray world of punk, DIY and outsider music, and Slovenly Recordings is blasted to present it to the world one more time. Tracklist:: Zombie Drug Killers, No Virgins In Hollywood, American Society, Boppin' Little Bobcat, Gina, Magic, Stream of Consciousness, We Gotta Get Out of This Place, Louie, Louie, Movin' On, Child Sin, Dave Dacron, Treat Me Right, Your Head's In The Right Place, American Society

OG Style
I am a big fan of Bruno Marc shoes. Over the years they have provided comfortable and affordable boots and shoes. These blue, tan and white soled dress sneakers are no exception. They have a nice finished look that makes them both causal and dressy. The lightweight style is still warm enough for colder mid-west winters. The box of the toes is wide and comfortable. The insole is well padded and a pleasure to wear. This is another fine pair of shoes to add to my collection and yours.

Must buy: Comfort + Casual + Well Made / Ventilated
Size: 8, Color: Brown
Just buy it! I have put in roughly 15,000 steps in this shoes in 10 days and I can't believe how comfortable they are after this much rough use in short amount of time. I highly recommend this shoes to anyone looking for comfort in casual style.

WIDE Dress Shoes With SUPPORT
Size: 10.5, Color: Brown
I've seen dress shoes and worn dress shoes before, but these are simply the best dress shoes I've ever worn my entire life. 99% of dress shoes have the same problem, they have the thinnest little soles that offer no support. BRUNO MARC HAS SOLVED THE PROBLEM. These dress shoes not only support wide feet like mine who historically have had and still have little support in the market, but Bruno Marc has wide options that fit perfectly, and the support with the thick foam sole is so needed and awesome. I had a pleasant surprise putting these things on and there being some tactile grip enhancers inside the shoe so you can feel the shoes better and get a little tickle / massage while you're at it. These things are dripping with style, easy to wear, and while they might look firm on the outside, on the inside the shoe just has such a nice flexibility and foamy feel, the top where the top of your feet feel the roof of the shoe, it has such perfect ooey gooey support I can't believe it. The outside sole also has this neat tactile feel. The durability looks good and feels good for now.

Select your true size.
Size: 12, Color: Brown
True to size. I wear a 10.5 W in dress shoes, tried them on and they felt a little big. Returned for a 10, bad mistake. When I wore them they hurt my feet around the toes area due to the narrow toe part of the shoe. Suggest a true to size pick when buying. Other than my error the shoes felt great.
