![]() ![]() They continued to sell this version over the years and we (Trial) have continued to receive emails from people who have bought the record asking why we didn’t include the lyrics in the record. Throughout the years that label decided to discontinue the lyrics in the booklet of their version. This was originally released in 1999 on another label. Trial has released a CD version of our 1999 LP “Are These Our Lives?”. We're writing this to ask for a little help and support. Flash forward to 2005, and EVR decided it would be a good idea to cash in on a reuniting Trial, and that leads us to this message from Trial. The lack of label support made that record take a long time to filter its way into people's hands. I think this is the reason that both Trial, and that record in particular, didn't get proper recognition until well after they had broken up. After Trial's break up in 2000, EVR seemed content to just let ATOL go out of print. They would run big half page ads in numerous zines for all the other releases that summer, but ATOL would never get more than a tiny blurb in the bottom corner of the ad. Let me preface Trial's message by saying that I'm not sure what happened around EVR just after they actually signed Trial, but when "Are These Our Lives?" actually came out, it seemed like the label didn't care about the record at all, and did very little to push it out there to the world. Ill have a full report of my trip when I get back as well as pictures of myself hanging out with the dudes from Loyal to the Grave, Crystal Lake, and the man Dobek Ohashi. Im still currently in Tokyo and will be until the 31st but while checking my local board, someone posted links to most of the bands soundboard recordings from Burning Fight. ![]()
