gremlynz- crystal hexes - family time records - cass -6$
shearing pinx / twin crystals - split - family time records - cass -6$
Two of Vancouver’s hardest working bands, i remember hearing about Shearing Pinx playing the Smell back in the day. Twin Crystals are unstoppable, i first met the guys when they began what i think was their first ever US tour. They were using borrowed equipment the whole trip minus their synth and a guitar they bought at a pawn shop. Shearing Pinx delve into a slow burning free jam that encompasses their ability to show restraint and precision, while Twin Crystals stray away from their perfected punk sound to deliver heavy doom in the only way Twin Crystals can.

With Bracing we see Kevin really finding his niche and driving it home. His style is like a bridge never thought of, approaching ambient music with a pop mentality.

Blessure Grave return with No Clear Picture, a definitive single that shows Blessure Grave doing what they do best, gazing upon the emotive heart and condensing it into a 2 - 3 minute song. Bestial Mouths make their debut with two powerful synthesizer laden songs, foreshadowing what’s to come on their debut full length due out on Dais Records.

Limited to 530 on black vinyl and 20 test presses
Definitely the most productive artist on the Family Time roster, Kevin Greenspon follows up 2009’s Bracing with Common Objects. With only a guitar Kevin bridges the gap between drone and pop, proving that drone doesn’t have to be drawn out to get a point across.
