listen: THE MILDREDS - 1995 7" vinyl - surf garage noise punk from Syracuse NY

Laceration:


Riptide:



Syracuse, NY's The Mildreds was a garage-punk surf noise band fueled by copious amounts of Mountain Dew, trucker speed, and nicoteen. The band had two songs out on a split 7" with Crop Circle in 1995, which came out on Coolidge Records out of New Jersey. "Laceration" & "Riptide" were those songs. This was their only release. The Mildreds were a band from 1994-1996.

Band members: Ian Purdy - voice & guitar, Dan Musclow - guitar, Gregg Yeti - bass, Sean Trinkaus - drums. Cover art by Mitch O'Connell.

There is/was another band in California by the same name and is in no way affiliated with The Mildreds from Syracuse NY.

More info, video and songs will be available soon via Koala Syndicate. There's several more songs that were never released.
