about

"The first time our bands met was in December of 1999 when we played a weekend of shows around the Midwest together. On that Sunday night, at Rockit's Pizza in Bloomington, Indiana, the idea of doing a split was born. A few months later in May of 2000 we did the "Riding with Death Tour" together. On that tour we threw around some ideas and decided we wanted this project to be more of a collaboration than a split. Throughout the following year there was much talk about, but little work done on the project until finally in March of 2001 The Casket Lottery recorded "Composing Myself" (A Lullaby)" and the music for "Boardinghouse" along with their new album.

Throughout the Summer and Fall tapes were sent back and forth between bands and we even found a little time to practice together when we both played Blooming Fest in September. Finally, one weekend in November and another weekend in January both bands were able to record the rest of the material, with finishing touches being added in February by The Casket Lottery and Ed Rose. At last, after over two years of writing, rocking, singing, screaming, driving, strumming, growing, birthing, deciding, and smiling, we surfaced with this document.

Try not to stress out too much on figuring out which band played which songs and what direction either band's music is heading. Remember, this is not a split, it is a collaboration created by a group of friends, meant to simply be enjoyed." - Ben Reed

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer

Peregrine (2016 Master)
by The Appleseed Cast

supported by 10 fans who also own “Split 12"”

Originally released in 2006, it was remastered for its 10 year anniversary. It could’ve come out today and I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. A mixture of post-punk and emo vocals, tracks like “Sunlit Ascending” soar exactly as much as its name implies — while “Peregrine” and “A Fate Delivered” are an anguished, furious conclusion to an incredible album.
