The Original Sins (Party's Over)

Here's a band from my back yard, that I've had the pleasure of seeing live a few times over the years. The Original Sins were from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, and were around since 1987. Their last LP was in 1996, but for all I know they may still get together once in a while. John Terlesky (Vocals, and Guitar)was also in The Creatures, as well as a few other projects, such as : Fuzzface, Crush Nova, Suffacox, Brother JT, and Vibrolux. As of 2007 he was still releasing records under Brother JT, but I'm not sure if he's still doing that either. The sins released at least 9 full lengths, and a half a dozen singles. This is my favorite Sins record, oddly enough, it was released on the Australian Dog Meat Label. Party's Over is a compilation of songs, and unreleased outtakes from their The Hardest Way cd, as well as a remix from their 1987 Bar None Single. Other band members were: Ken Bussiere,(Bass)Dan Mckinney,(Keys)and Dave Ferrara (Drums). Here's a couple of articles for you reading pleasure.

Hi,

great post. I love their Bar none 7" - best record they made (imo). They have just released a new record on the Beyond Your Mind label: Smash crack-up pop.

I remember when they opened for the Replacements at the Airport Music Hall. Great show by both.
