NEW LP
No Plan Records
This mysterious band that existed between 1986 and 1989 in Arcata, California, never released anything on vinyl. There were plans, and the band went down to Los Angeles to record two songs, but soon afterwards they broke up and the vinyl record never happened. Some people remember Schmidtheads from Aaron Cometbus´ compilation Best We Regret, which put together on one tape 33 Northern California bands with unreleased recordings ranging from 1981 till 1988.
Schmidtheads named themselves after a beer company, because they used to drink exclusively Schmidt beer. They played a lot, mostly locally, besides their infamous "LA or bust" Tour. They played with Operation Ivy, Crimpshrine, Mr. Bungle, Problem Children, Blatz, Isocracy, Brent´s TV, Neer Do Wells, Lethal Gospel, One Man Running, Nuisance and many others. This is a song from their upcoming retrospective LP album out on No Plan records very very soon:
