Splits/Compilations



2001/2016
Indecision Records Split Series (Indecision Records) - CD
Indecision Records Split Series (Indecision Records) - Sky Blue (/??)

This is a 2016 Record Store Day release pressed on vinyl for the first time after being released on CD in 2001 (and purchased by me a number of years ago). The compilation is a collection of 7"s with a bunch of cool bands, including 3 songs from Bane. 2 songs are from the split with Adamantium and 1 song exclusive to this release. The sky blue colour is crisp.


2012
America’s Hardcore Compilation (Triple B) – Purple Marble (333)
America’s Hardcore Compilation (Triple B) – Clear Red (765)
America’s Hardcore Compilation (Triple B) – Clear Blue (1050)

Contains 1 bane song exclusive to this release. Purple marble purchased.

(Feb 2014 update) Triple B had these on sale and I wanted a few other things so bought the last two (red and blue) I need to have all 3.


2009
“At Both Ends Zine” split - heaps of colours done, some as limited as 1, very random, I have in clear red and grey

I did inquire about more colours and a test press but with so many I decided it wasn't worth it



2003
Inventing the Scene Equal Vision Records Compilation - CD

Discogs purchase for a few dollars. Contains Reckoning Day from the It All Comes Down To This recordings, which would turn up on the 10 year EP. EVR was dropping away I feel by now so the whole CD doesn't have the overall quality like the earlier years.



2001
Bane/Adamantium Split (Indecision Records) - Grey (550)
Bane/Adamantium Split (Indecision Records) - Black (1574)

- I have twice forgotten about a grey version that was selling on ebay as I have seen it with 8 or 9 days left. I figure eventually I will get it, test press though is a different story.
- I now have the grey thanks to Dalbec (June 2013)
- Discussions with someone about buying their test press proved unfruitful


2000
Equal Vision Records Label Sampler Compilation - CD

Discogs purchase for a few dollars. EVR was hitting home runs around this time so this is full of cracking tracks. Can we start again and Count me out are the Bane tracks, both top 10 tracks for them.


1999
All Systems Go! Compilation - (Black) (1500)
All Systems Go! Compilation - CD

CD purchased around 2011 and black vinyl in 2016. This compilation somewhat nags at me as I threaten to spend big and grab them all, but it just never happens. Has some cool tracks on it including Bane covering Chain of Strength as from Holding this moment.



1998
As I Look To The Future Compilation (Solution Records)
As We Look To The Future Compilation (Solution Records)
(black w/ white sleeves, black w/ light blue sleeves, blue w/ white sleeves (and maybe blue sleeves too) and black w/ white sleeves with a stonkie stamp /20. There is also a bunch of mix ups)

The record inside "As I look to the future" is actually "As we..." I am somewhat angry about this but I paid maybe $10 for it off ebay and sometimes thats just how it goes sometimes. If I come across another at a good price I might buy it, but I am not going to chase it hard.

  1. I feel the same way about the All Systems Go! comp. I have one colour that I got when it came out, and I picked up a test for cheap, but I can't be fucked to chase the other colours.

    Also, I don't own a single copy of that 'At Both Ends' thing. When it came out I emailed the labels asking if i could buy a test. Dude said I could if I bought one of every colour combination there was. He said he had about 30 different colours. So to get a test I would have had to buy like 30 2x7"s. I politely declined, and it put me off buying even one copy.

    I also only have one copy of the 'as we look to the future' comp because the variations annoy me. My take on it is that it is supposed to be called 'as WE look to the future' given that's what cover version 1 is called and it is what the labels on the record say. i would guess that the first press sold out so they did a repress and decided to make a new cover for it, but in the process somehow fucked up and switched 'we' for 'I' in the title. The labels of the records will all say 'we' on though as there would have been no need to redesign the labels. so no need for you to buy more copies. but the whole thing just irritates me because it is so damn slack.

    1. (originally sending this i didnt reply) Funnily enough the guy from "at both ends" said i was the second to inquire about a mass lot of records. I think by memory he was gonna send me about 15 or 18 for about $150. I ordered the magazine when it was first done and then down the track thought more of it and sent some emails but 2 is enough i decided.

      Thats an interesting point about the as i/we...comp in that youre probably right with the fact the record labels will all be as we, only the cover has i. I bought 1 in a collection of about 10 bane records for about $70 and between me and mike (referenced in why bane records) we split them up and that was 1 i wanted. I got the second with "I" one for nothing.
