By request, this is the b-side to yesterday’s post. The “Two-Headed Coin” seven inch was the first and best release on the Art Monk Construction label. I never had the chance to see Lincoln live. I think the closest they came to me on tour was to Kansas City. That was the curse of growing up in the upper-Midwest, no bands ever wanted to come there during the winter. As far as I know, they only put out one more seven inch on Art Monk before breaking up.

This is great! Another amazing band who slipped under the wire. The next time I find anything by them available, I’m working to snag it.
By far one of the best splits of the early/mid ninties…all hail the defunct Art Monk. Good choice as per usual.
Does anyone know where singer Jay Demco went? He started a band called Kukim but then disapeared off the face of the earth. To great a musician to disapear! Please give me info!
i loved this band. i loved everything jay demco put his hands on. he drastically changed the way i approach guitar playing.
