The Best Grunge Album You’ve Never Heard – ’68s Album

Blown the fuck away

The first time I heard the debut ’68s album was a couple of years after the initial release. I remember being blown the fuck away. I checked my phone to see who this 90s band I had never heard was. It turned out they were a relatively new sound by a mysterious, almost nameless band. Their track titles give nothing away, just track numbers. Their debut ‘In Humour and Sadness’ is like listening to an alternative timeline where Kurt Cobain gets hooked on cocaine instead of heroin. Massive riffs, a set of lungs bigger than a hot air balloon, and an absolute passion to make musical art. Moreover it’s like to take you on a journey.  Conclusively they’ll bring you down before firing you up, out of a cannon into an active volcano.

I’ve decided to write about this seven-year-old album because ’68 has just released ‘Give One Take One’ this year and as great as it is, I felt it should be documented just how dope their first release was.

Give it a listen below, also find a Spotify link to their new album ‘Give One Take One’.
