Countdown To Oblivion/They Live split

Year: 2000
Label: Ugly Pop Records

Tracks:

1. Countdown To Oblivion - More Dead Kennedys (a.k.a. Single Bullshit Theory)
2. Countdown To Oblivion - Poster Children For Family Values
3. Four Alarm Fire At Lockport Gambino Ford

4. They Live - Hometown Heroes
5. They Live - Nothing For You
6. They Live - Scapegoat (In A Trenchcoat)
7. They Live - No Alarm Break In At Who's Emma
8. They Live - Hardline (Crisis Of Faith cover)

Split 7” between the Toronto hardcore supergroup to end all Toronto hardcore supergroups and a hardcore band from Buffalo that did a split with Ruination the same year. 1900 copies were pressed. I was under the impression that there were no variants of this, until I found copies with the limited Full Blast sleeve limited to 25 which features a pic of Drew Barrymore on the cover. I also found one with a Peace Bridge and punk themed cover hand-numbered out of 50. Apparently the Peace Bridge side is supposed to represent They Live's home town of Buffalo while the picture of the dude with the They Live and CtO backpatches is an homage to Youth Youth Youth and subsequently CtO's hometown of Toronto. Another weird thing about this 7" is that They Live covers Toronto's own Crisis of Faith.
