Album Notes

From 1986 – 1987 in a bedroom of a house in Bellaire, Texas, two brothers named Ryan and Laurance produced an album together entitled Oblique Formation. Less than twenty homemade cassette tapes were given to friends and released to a few select stores in Houston. A lot has changed in the 20 plus years since these recordings were made. One thing still remains and that is the quality of the songs. The tracks on this release were transferred from the original cassette master, played back on the original recorder and digitally remastered by Laurance as a tribute to his brother Ryan.
