One of the best things about this blog thing is that I've been able to meet (at least via e-mail) some really nice folks. One such person is Jen Talbert, microbiologist and co-owner of You Say When Records, the label that issued the debut of the Kicksouls, a Baltimore band led by brothers Casey and Mason Cutlip. I remember seeing fanzine ads for a full-length album in the mid-90s, but never being able to find it; Jen says that it was indeed recorded and will probably be issued at some point, although the label is currently on a "prolonged break." We'll try to keep you posted. Until that day this 3-track 7" reamins their only artifact, save for a few stray compilation appearances.
