Eddie & The Subtitles - Skeletons In The ClosetIt's 1980 in Orange County, California, and PUNK ROCK has been scorching the 'burbs for a few years. Eddie Joseph has been on the Southern California scene the entire time, plotting his poisonous rock'n'roll maneuvers since the mid 1960s when he began playing in garage bands. Eddie had been honing his skills on roots music and swinging teenbeat well in advance of his foray into a new, seedy, violent punk blitzkrieg. There's a master plan at work here,

It's 1980 in Orange County, California, and PUNK ROCK has been scorching the 'burbs for a few years. Eddie Joseph has been on the Southern California scene the entire time, plotting his poisonous rock'n'roll maneuvers since the mid 1960s when he began playing in garage bands. Eddie had been honing his skills on roots music and swinging teenbeat well in advance of his foray into a new, seedy, violent punk blitzkrieg. There's a master plan at work here, and it involves select players depending on which direction Eddie needs to bleed out of his system. The recruitment of Mike Patton and Matt Simon of OC legends THE MIDDLE CLASS get Eddie and the Subtitles rolling for a slew of shows with comrades BLACK FLAG, ADOLESCENTS, CIRCLE JERKS and every other degenerate crew in the radius. A DIY imprint called No Label Records is formed (with literally NO LABELS on the vinyl!) and the first single 'Fuck You Eddie!' is unleashed. Recorded in Fullerton by Jon St. James at his legendary Casbah studio (THE VANDALS, SOCIAL DISTORTION, BERLIN), these sessions also yielded a handful of tracks that would appear on the exceedingly rare 'Skeletons In The Closet' LP (No Label Records, 1981). 'Zombie Drug Killers,' 'No Virgins In Hollywood,' and 'American Society' (the short fast loud version covered by L7) appear here as the opening trio on this newly re-sequenced reissue. Geza X is also on board to produce a handful of tracks with peripheral Subtitles including Nicky Beat (GERMS, WEIRDOS) among the sessions' players. The results here are another manifestation of Eddie's one true love. Even as a punk allegiant, songwriting, sound and style are the priority. The dusted and dark goth-pop of 'Magic' and 'Stream of Consciousness' are crucial to the plot, setting a unique tone that works in a sea of one-dimensional scene releases, taking full advantage of Geza's synth-mimicking microtonal guitar techniques. A tribute to Dave Dacron, chief miscreant of Dangerhouse Records' RHINO 39 is also set to tape as consolation to X, as Dacron's 16 year old life was tragically cut short in an automobile accident in 1980. But the party rocks on with covers of 'Louie Louie' (also appearing on the elusive 'Fuck You Eddie!' single) and 'We Gotta Get Out of This Place,' as a testament to Eddie's obsession with the timeless now-sounds of his delinquent adolescence. Friends and fellow freaks Jon Blair (of surf cats Jon and the Nightriders) and Bobby Paine (later of rockabilly hepsters The Paine Brothers) lend their own song-smithery for four more originals: 'Boppin' Little Bobcat, 'Treat me Right,' 'Gina' (covered in 1984 by Josie Cotton and again in '89 by Stray Cats) and 'Your Head's In The Right Place,' respectively. 'Skeletons In The Closet' remains an unusual and rare artifact in the ashtray world of punk, DIY and outsider music, and Slovenly Recordings is blasted to present it to the world one more time. Tracklist:: Zombie Drug Killers, No Virgins In Hollywood, American Society, Boppin' Little Bobcat, Gina, Magic, Stream of Consciousness, We Gotta Get Out of This Place, Louie, Louie, Movin' On, Child Sin, Dave Dacron, Treat Me Right, Your Head's In The Right Place, American Society

oh wow
Format: Kindle
I just knew there was something about Cooper! I’m wondering if he’s about to be included but damn I’m glad he’s at least not a rapist and creepy guy, he just got called on assignment and had to go! This should be interesting! She’s gonna run and then what’s his face is gonna grab her. I’m worried! Wow that was a great book and cliffhanger! Loving this!

Baby bumps and bodyguards
Format: Kindle
Dark, emotional, and unexpectedly tender, Not Ready is an omegaverse romance that delivers found family feels, fierce protectiveness, and a very pregnant heroine who refuses to break. Vale’s on the run from a stalker, but lands in the arms of three private security alphas, cue the swoony tension, fake marriage twist, and slow-burn heat. It’s a little gritty, a little soft, and a whole lot addictive. If you love protective alphas, high stakes, and heroines with quiet strength, this one’s a must-read.

Strong Omegaverse Comfort and a Attention Grabbing Plot
Format: Kindle
Jillian West never misses when it comes to Omegaverse, and Not Ready is no exception. This story was the perfect blend of cozy comfort and emotional depth while still delivering a strong plot. Vale is such a powerful heroine, she is strong, capable, and determined but I love that she still allows her pack to love and take care of her. It’s that balance of independence and vulnerability that makes her so relatable. The relationship dynamics were amazing: Bishop is steadfast and completely head over heels, Mercy is skeptical but protective in his own way, and Holt is the hesitant one whose slow fall is so satisfying to watch unfold. The romance hits that sweet spot between insta-love and cautious build, keeping me hooked the entire way through. And that ending. Oh my god, the cliffhanger! I need the next book in this duet immediately.

Interesting
Format: Kindle
So I will say I enjoyed the story, for sure had its moments where it dragged but it was a great story. I really liked that omegas picked their alphas/make the pack. Normally the Alphas make it and the omega fits in with them which is great but I enjoyed this new version where all the power basically went to the omega. It was a nice change of pace. I can admit some of the weird bedroom stuff with her being pregnant was odd, it’s really not hard to do stuff when pregnant (I know I’ve had two and it’s normal and even encouraged at the end especially if you want the baby out). But I like the story as a whole and will read the second, I do hope the next one isn’t dragged bc it stopped being action or tense after she met her alphas and I don’t think it was brought up or properly done when they tried to do it. More sweet after she left.
