Big Hits of Mid-America Vol. 4<\/strong><\/p>\n

TwinTone<\/a> 1983<\/p>\n

Great document of the label that put MN on the map, and helped to spawn some of the biggest punk\/hardcore\/indie-rock bands in the land.\u00a0 There is no denying the importance of this label and what they did for Minnesota.\u00a0 Even bands that never put out a single release on the label were helped out by them (think Husker Du and many others).\u00a0 They spawned the Suburbs, Suicide Commandos, Replacements, Soul Asylum, (my favorite) The Magnolias and many others.<\/p>\n

When I started my label the folks at Twin Tone gave me some great advice, and when I did my video show, they helped me out then too, and I’m not the only person they ever helped.\u00a0 I was just some dumb kid that I doubt anyone there would ever remember.\u00a0 So even if the Twin Tone bands aren’t your speed, you need to give them a lot of credit for all the work they did.<\/p>\n

So…the comp….. \u00a0 Well, this is filled with the typical Twin Tone bands.\u00a0 Just download it already.\u00a0 Great record!<\/p>\n
