I suppose we can always use a Kathleen Hanna rarity. Viva Knieval was her second band, after Amy Carter, and before Bikini Kill. Among her bandmates was Louise "Zeb" Olsen, who played in Go Team with Tobi Vail and Billy Karren, and self-released this under the Ultrasound Records. This has more in common musically with L7 and Babes in Toyland than you might expect, considering the band's home base and membership. Fun fact: Tim Mac of Halo of Flies recorded this four-song slab. 1,000 on black, 1,000 on red, gang. And that is the most amazing part to me: that a relatively unknown band would press 2,000 7"s.
