unsigned bands compilation, 1989
I moved a month and a half ago and finally unpacked my computer a couple days ago. Â During the move, I went through all my CDs and found a bunch of treasures.
Back in 2001, after college I was unemployed for the summer and staying on a friend’s couch in Boston looking for work. Â I had no money, but I was desperate for new music to listen to. Â So I went to this thrift store which sold used CDs for $0.25 and came back with a bunch of unsigned band compilations. Â They’re mostly unlistenable.
Here’s a sample of bands from Unsigned Bands – The Album Network CD TuneUp #7.
Some sort of heavy metal trumpet guy (Don Collette) and a couple power ballads by Ultraviolet, Blush, and The Affairs.
It’s pretty amazing that Nirvana just sorta wiped this stuff all away.
If you would like a file deleted, you can contact me at taybin-AT-quiettooquiet.com. You can also contact me if you think I'd like your band's music. I love music.

Hey,
I collect those Album Network Unsigned Band discs, primarily for the weird metal bands. If you have a bunch of them, get in touch. I want them! 🙂

hey can you put
Metal Machine – Dan Collette
back up?
This guy did a song on ‘metal massacre’ compilation album and I really liked it.
Was wondering what this song was like.
I dont think this guy made a full album. Its hard to find info on his metal projects. Hes done some trumpet stuff with big bands though.

Hey Taybin,
I arrived a little late to the party and just discovered your blog. I’d love to hear the entire Volume 7 of that Unsigned Bands CD. Any chance you’d kindly share it on this blog, or email me a link to the MP3s??
Thank you and take care!
