Hello. I spent nearly 10 years selling on that other site (you can check my feedback there; It's under the same ID as this one; over 3200 positives, 99.7%, and still active). But I thought I'd give this site a try.
Like all of my cds, this is an Original CD, with original inserts (NO CD-Rs or bootlegs).....
Dead and Gone | The Beautician | GSL
Here's some info or review ............
Dead and Gone | The Beautician | GSL
Meet Dead and Gone. They're oh-so-creepy, oh-so-dark, in oh-so-much pain, and with The Beautician, prove once and for all that they're smarter than you. Once the shining beacon of the Berkeley crust scene, Dead and Gone used the five years since the release of their last full-length to metamorphose into a complex, layered and mature band. Well, mostly.
Lead vocalist Shane Baker still has his penchant for singing about combustion and/or phlebotomy, but these can be forgiven on the strength of his voice. Unlike your run of the mill screaming frontmen, Baker sounds positively scorched, growling inane lyrics like "Everyone's destiny is death," with such two-packs-a-day intensity as to almost allow you to suspend your disbelief. Cross Brian Johnson, Tom Waits and the clientele of Perversions, and you're halfway there.
Musically, however, the band excels. Using Neurosis and Christian Death as obvious jumping-off points, the band elbows past such easy touchstones and occupies its own sonic niche. Drummer Joey Perales and bassist Brian Stern command the bottom end so adamantly that Rockey Crane - who evidently sleeps with a reverb pedal under his pillow - can seed shimmering soundscapes or launch brutal minor-chord assaults at whim. Tempo and time changes abound as well, and unlike many other music-nerdish punk acts, the transitions are seamless.

Editorial Reviews
The Beautician is the third effort by Bay Area punk revivalists Dead & Gone. It finds them as angry and musically dissonant as ever. This time out, they produced their own album instead of relying on Green Day's Billy Joe Armstrong at the helm. The results are sonically murkier, though that works to their advantage. It creates a rougher edge, which is what they're aiming for. Dead & Gone has a sound that relies more on creating a certain vibe than presenting an actual melody. Defiant and insolent as ever, the band builds on their reputation as proto-punk purists. Vocalist Shane Baker has returned to the band's lineup, snarling (you can't call it singing) as incomprehensibly as ever. Luckily, printed lyrics are included, so you can savor such tongue twisters as "sick street streak." Dead & Gone are not unique or original, but they do manage to create an identifiable set of musical fingerprints. ~ Mary Grady, All Music Guide All Music Guide
