Songs from Purgatory

June Panic spent six years in the early 90s crafting fourteen disturbed and sonically self-mutilated albums that would make him the closest thing to an underground rock songwriting celebrity. While scratching an itch for Dylan, June willed his bedroom songs into musical nuggets that find tonal residence between the hazy fog of Ween and Sebadoh, the great white isolationism of Eric's Trip, and the everything-and-the-kitchen-sink production style of 80s-era Prince. Originally released as cassette only on his label, 3 Out of 4 Records, June's lo-fi master tapes for "Songs from Purgatory" were almost destroyed in a flood, but have been cleansed and re-mastered.
