Generational Permanent Phase Rock
Wherever you grew up · Former Member Records
No member list is on file.
Membership is open. The requirement is one door, closed harder than necessary.
No roll is kept. Members leave on their own schedule. Most do not notice when.
Former members are not contacted. They are, the label reports, everywhere.
Archive note
The archive holds one index card and nothing else. Name, genre, origin, label, tagline.
There are no years on file. The band did not start. It has not stopped.
The archive does not hold members, records or songs. It is not sure it is allowed in.
