This is from the online review of the Brian Colin and Vince/ Chisel 7 inch. Published Friday, February 24, 2006 by Jeff in cacophonyandcoffee.blogspot.com.
"Maybe it's a gimmick, but I'm a sucker for a split seven inch where bands cover each other's songs. Especially when you get bands that seem to typify opposite ends of current underground musical spectrum. Examples include the splits between Screeching Weasel/Born Against (early 90's punk) and The Get Up Kids/Coalesce (post-hardcore/'emo').
But rather than an oddity among the discography, a novelty or throwaway, the split between Chisel and Brian, Colin, and Vince, seems to encapsulate a moment, a mutual admiration and respect. For a period of time, all the members in these two groups lived within blocks of each and their lives were intertwined. Reinterpreting each other's songs seems like sincere homage to a shared history. (Brian, Colin and Vince cover 'One In Ten')
When Brian (who penned 'Spectacles') passed away, Chisel played this song as their closer at a tribute show in South Bend, Indiana, 1993. The moment was so powerful it inspired an entire film, "Songs for Cassavetes." The soundtrack for this film features a live version of 'Spectacles' performed by Chisel, but I am unable to verify if it is indeed the live recording from the tribute show.
Colin Clary, the Colin in Brian, Colin and Vince, sums up their band as:
"3-part harmonies, a million songs, Brian was a songwriter and guitar player, Vince sang great harmonies and played bongos.....Trees hugs and rock and roll was a motto one day. We were not hippies, but I think hippies thought we were fun... Some ex-ND kids think this is the best band I’ve ever been in." - Colin"
