My favorite record of 2007.

Posted 1/4/2008 2:07 PM by theprayers

Hello RCRD LBL friends, Just wanted to write a quick little blog to say hello, as I've not done any yet, and let everyone in rcrdlbl-land know about San Diego's best kept secret.

The Sess have been around for a few years with not much local attention, but recently they released their self-produced debut 7 inch, "Fuck the Navy" b/w "Don't look back". It was actually the b-side that first grabbed my attention. I love the Remains original version of "Don't look back" and was maybe a little suspicious of my peers attempting a cover of a perfect song. My mind was quickly changed when I put the needle to the vinyl. The Sess managed to take the original song, inject it with amphetamines, drag it through the swamp and not only *not* fuck it up, they IMPROVED on the original. After being converted by the b-side, I checked out the a-side and was equally impressed. "Fuck the Navy" is a howling garage punk gem, fitting in somewhere between Neat Neat Neat-era Damned and The Sonics. Listen for yourself and buy the record at their myspace (myspace.com/thesess). You'll love it; if you don't, something is wrong with your ears. It would be wonderful to see my city take notice of this fine band, and it would be finer to see the country and the world take notice. All too often the best bands get lost in the cesspool of bad music. I truly, truly hope this doesn't happen with the Sess.

The Sess are a great band

The Sess are a great band and have gotten a lot better in the last year. I remember the song "duh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh SESS!" and now they have some real hits.
