I'm going to be sharing singles from the Sub Pop Singles club. The Singles club was a marketing scheme Sub Pop used to get money up front when they were just starting and in exchange members got a seven inch mailed to them monthly by some of the best bands around. Most of the releases are noise rock,but there's a lot more variety than the generic grunge sound you might expect.
They're only seven inches so in the spirit of the club and the times (when usually when you bought a record, you bought it unheard) I'm not posting descriptions or previews - at under 10MB just DL it and see what you think!
Please help the thread by sharing singles or EPs, or just with a bump

I shared the first year of singles recently, but have since cleaned up the tags better. After a few (improved) reposts there'll be a bunch of new shares
