The Candy Snatchers "Picture My Face" 7" (Full EP)

1 comment:

  1. Sometime in late 1997, Matthew Odietus handed Jake Starr a DAT with two new Candy Snatchers songs on it for a split 7" with Adam West on Fandango Records. Jake chose "Picture My Face," a raucous cover of the Teenage Head classic, and released it as FR-012 limited to 510 copies. The 7" single sold out nearly overnight and has never been repressed or released digitally... until now. This version of "Treda Douche" is the first take on the song and was originally released on a rare LP compilation on Intensive Scare Records. Both songs have now been remastered and are available for the first time digitally. These two songs also feature Black Market Baby drummer Tommy Carr, who was briefly in the band in between permanent drummers. Fandango is so proud to re-release these songs for your listening pleasure. Enjoy, kids!
