LDOPA was formed in '95 by bassist Andy Branton, vocalist/guitarist Greg Valencia, vocalist/guitarist Brian Ward, and drummer Sean Taylor. Coming from bands ECONOCHRIST, SAMIAM, and GRIMPLE, and moving on to WATCH THEM DIE (Valencia), MEN OF PORN (Taylor), and KALAS (Branton), "The Complete Recordings" is full of crusty hardcore, doom-laden extreme metal, and NEUROSIS-tinged atmosphere that is the sonic equivalent of a three-day binge resulting in jail, mental illness, or death. Included is the band's entire body of work: the "1332" full-length, self-titled 7", demo and live recordings
