10"s are starting to become a rarified commodity these days, I think. You see so few of them, though I think that's mostly due to the fact that it essentially costs the same amount of money to press as a full LP. I'm not a huge fan of EPs in general, but if you are going to release one, the 10" vinyl is my favorite format. Debauch Mood takes it up an additional step and included a CD of all of the songs as well. The best of both worlds.
Sleeping Aides & Razor Blades are from Japan and play a dynamic power pop that leans on the punk side of the spectrum. I think they have qualities similar to bands like Not Wonk or Hateman, but there's also a strain of that old school Snuffy Smile pop punk weaving its way through the songs. Blew is the band that I see the most similarity to, but it's not overt. Just a little bit punky to keep things energetic and exciting.
Sleeping Aides & Razor Blades are a band that I am just getting into, but they have a lot of records that have been released over the past few years. Theres several singles and two full length albums that I don't have yet. I'm going to need to rectify that.
