The Holidays recordings have been digitally remastered for the 20th anniversary of the debut EP release, The First Step Towards Selling Out. This complete collection kicks off with the five “lost” tracks from a second recording session in 2006. The music for both sessions was recorded live off the floor in Jimmy’s Basement in one day, and the vocals/overdubs were done the next day at Mintie Fresh Studios. This album also contains two unreleased demos and the last live show at Generation XX in 2006 with all of the band members from the studio sessions.
All proceeds from these digital sales will go towards a physical release in the future. Available exclusively on bandcamp.com.
Band members: Phillip Gallant (vocals), Donald “Doc” Hunter (guitar), Walden “Jack” Cameron (guitar/vocals), James “Jimmy” Cameron (bass), Kevin “Killer” Gallant (drums).
