Has anyone else heard this compilation besides me? I was originally interested because Jeff Mangum was featured on it but after downloading its a solid record overall. I'd never really heard of Chris Knox before the tribute but apparently the E6 collective took a lot of influence. The tribute is to help pay for medical bills after he recently sufferred a stroke.
LIke a cool comp the best tracks turn out to be the one by artists you dont know I especially loved Dont catch fire, the slide, knoxed out, rebel and all my hollowness to you.
