OVERSOUL - February 14th, 1993 - [no location info] [SOUNDBOARD]

From Minneapolis, MN, and a time before metallic hardcore had become it's own huge scene, comes OVERSOUL.  I had posted their demo previously, so follow the tags at the bottom of the post to find that if you dig this.  It's 4 songs with killer production.  If you liked that post, and wanted to hear more, then you are in luck, as all 4 songs and a few more are on this soundboard tape.  There was no info on where the show was, just when, but I assume it's from their hometown.  If anyone can confirm, then I'll edit it into the post.  Being a soundboard means it's recording a mix that's intended for the room, not the tape, so there can be some funky issues such as overpowering vocals.  Usually vocal s are way up, guitars are way too low.  For this one I boosted the guitars a bit but they are fine enough in this mix, the vocals really had to come down a lot and they still are pretty high in the mix.  It is a lot more balanced though now, so thanks Izotope rx8 and it's handy rebalance feature!   Anyhoo, jam the tape.  It's good.  Jam that demo too, if you like 90's metallic hardcore then this will be right your alley.  - DH

OVERSOUL - 4 Song Demo

Here's one I really dig, a demo from a band I think is from Minneapolis, MN called OVERSOUL.  Going through Chris Dodge's tapes I came across this random demo and really liked it when I threw it in the player.  Going through more tapes I also came across a live soundboard recording that's also pretty killer, that features all these songs plus a few more.  I'll upload that at a later date.  For now, check out this tape.  It's of the metallic hardcore variety, and is absolutely a snapshot of the early 90's chunky midtempo-ish scene perfectly. I don't know anything else about this band, but if I get any info that's not in the comments below, I'll edit them in.    - DH
