| Based in New York, LBE are an intelligent, erudite, hard-hitting post-punk band led by songwriter/vocalist/guitarist and inner-city teacher Dave Burokas along with Tom Burke bass (ex-Slambook), and our own Big Takeover editor Jack Rabid drums and vocals. |

| CD "Distress Call", "Comfort In Misery" and "Cafe Radical". Last Burning Embers formed in 1997 in New York City and have been unsteadily building steam since. The members of the band are: David Burokas, songwriter, vocalist and guitarist; Tom Burke, bass guitar; Jack Rabid, drums and some vocals. Collectively they're a band in the tradition of swirling British, Australian, and American post-punk of the past twenty years with a certain modern vitality. LBE believe that the greatest of oxymorons, rock with brains, beauty, and brawn, is a viable alternative to the current status quo. Reference points are wide and varied, but the goal is to produce earnest, heartfelt music with an unmistakable edge. |

| Studio recording from 1982, plus bonus live concert from Max's Kansas City, recorded 1981. Featuring drummer and Big Takeover editor Jack Rabid, originally formed in 1980. This is the only available recording of this now legendary (in their own minds) punk rock original.
Jack Rabid has often stated that his greatest musical regret was that the old, original-era-punk rock band Even Worse he was a member of split up in March of 1982, before it could release the LP it had just recorded then. Now, he and his former bandmates R.B. KORBET (vocals), BOBBY WEEKS (guitar) and ERIC KEIL (bass) are proud to announce the release of that very 13-song LP, nearly-exactly two decades later—now fleshed out to a full-scale retrospective with the inclusion of Jack’s long and detailed liner notes, R.B.’s painstaking layout of the 16-page booklet (including dozens of flyers, photos, and artifacts contributed by all four from the dusty boxes in their attics/storage/beds!), and the bonus inclusion of a complete concert right from the board at New York’s legendary Max’s Kansas City club, August 27, 1981. |

Get these import CDs at domestic price for this limited stock only! NOTE: We have now sold out our stock of this item. But Don's label Arch Hill Records has generously agreed to mail CDs straight from their offices in New Zealand. So we will still take orders here for this, but the package will come straight from them. |

| Never mind Jack Black and the so-called School of Rock now playing NYC clubs! The Non-Linear Thinkers are a group of inner-city teens from a Newark, NJ, high school, who have taken a crash course in punk and post-punk taught by their Latin teacher. They’re former novices who now are a volatile rock band ready to give the worlds of mall-punk and faux-bohemianism a swift kick. On this debut CD, they formidably cover tunes from the Ruts, XTC, Radio Birdman, the Effigies, Mission of Burma, the Comsat Angels, the Rich Kids, Magazine, Stiff Little Fingers, The Newtown Neurotics, the Undertones, and more, played with youthful passion by kids who rarely get to hear this kind of music. All proceeds go to support the school. |
