About
In Kirkland Lake in the mid 1990s, kids created music for other kids, started bands, wrote songs, put on their own shows, recorded their own albums, wrote and published zines, and started their own small DIY labels. Cragmatic Pope recorded "Disappear Today" in a small 8-track studio in 1995, and "Get Away From That Fish", which was produced by Austin on a 4-track in Jasmine's basement in 1996. Roughly 50 copies of "Disappear Today", and 125 copies of "Get Away From That Fish" were pressed. MP3s ripped from an old tape found their way onto the interweb in 2009. Austin, Jasmine and Ryan would later form a band called Groundstate. Shane would go on to form The Deefons.
