FA-Q - Each Hit

Anyone have this album? I've been looking for it since it came out in 1996, and I've never been able to find it.

The line-up is pretty interesting:

Bass - Derek ''The Skull'' Tailer (Overkill, ex-Dee Snider, ex-Speed Kill Hate)
Drums - Tim Mallare (ex-Overkill, ex-Speed Kill Hate, ex-M.O.D.)
Guitars - Dave Linsk (Overkill, Speed Kill Hate, ex-Anger on Anger)
Vocals - Gary Meskil (Pro-Pain, ex-Crumbsuckers)

And until tonight, I'd never heard them. But I found this clip on YouTube.

Kinda cool. Hardcore/metal crossover, like Skin Yard, Seka. Never knew Gary could sing like that. Wish I could find a copy of this thing. =(

~~Ditto.~~ Sorry, that shoud read "Never heard of it, never seen it". Sounds pretty cool though. Eyesore, have you tried contacting Dave Linsk directly?

I've heard of the band for many, many years, but I've never heard them.

I haven't, but that sounds like a good idea.

I have a feeling this thing was released in very limited quantities.

Hi Eyesore. Thanks for posting this.
For some reason a few years ago it got around the Internet that the album was done by the line up you mentioned. No idea why and I was too lazy to correct the misinformation.

Each Hit was done by me (Buzz Drew) and by brother Rob for ATP Records our independent lable in Seatle at the time. We wrote all the songs and played all the instruments. Created the cover and sent it to radio . . .
It came in a paper cover intended to look like an old LP cover. It had a lyric sheet and stickers. The most sales were in Germany. We would send CDs and they would send back cash wrapped in newspaper.

We did it completely unseriously but it ended up climbing to #11 on the CMJ hard charts. The third track on the record (Mr. Miracle) even started to chart on commercial radio. It was all pretty crazy. Radio interviews were a riot. We couldn't say the name of the band because the radio station would get fined so we had to spell it!

Anyway, stuff happened and we couldn't do music anymore. So it remains a one off. You never know though, we might do another album. I certainly have more than enough material and pent up aggression.

Cheers,
BZ

So that's not Gary singing? Man, I thought it sounded different. Haha.

Thanks for the info, bro. It sounds like a really cool record. I still hope to find a copy someday. =)

I have the cd.
It came in a sleeve.
I cut the sleeve to fit in a jewel case and the cut is not that great.
