My Own Sweet – New Strings EP (CD, EP, Early 2000s, Sudden Shame)

Why This CD Matters
New Strings EP captures the sound of Burlington's early-2000s independent music scene through a blend of guitar-driven alternative rock, post-emo influences, and DIY production. The release reflects a period when regional bands built dedicated followings through local venues, college radio, and independent labels. Its raw energy and melodic songwriting make it a compelling snapshot of Vermont's underground rock community.

Collector Note
Released on Sudden Shame during the early 2000s, this Vermont indie-rock EP represents a local music scene that was rarely documented on a national scale. Small-run regional releases from this era are increasingly difficult to locate, particularly in sealed condition.
