Mt. Egypt - Battening the Hatches 7'' (Record Collection, 2006)

Mt. Egypt

Record Collection

Rating: 7 Somali tigers out of 10

Mt. Egypt aka Travis Graves was a skateboard dude and he recorded this record with some other skateboard dudes (Brad Staba!).  This information is probably only relevant to you if you skateboard.  Otherwise, it's better-than-average singer-songwriter fare crossed with indie rock, catchy and enjoyable to be sure though clearly not groundbreaking.  First track "NYC" is also on the full-length by the same name as this seven inch.  The b-side track "If a Tiger Comes Down" appears to only be here.
