LINOMA: A Nebraska Compilation, was the start of the -ismist Recordings takeover of the world, phase 2. It amounted to something like this: About the same time the label started (August 1992), we were sitting around talking about the local scene, specifically that of Eastern Nebraska over the last few years. We had come to the conclusion that there wasn’t anything that had been definitive of the scene as a whole done in quite some time. Thus sprang LINOMA. So anyway, we started in November, 1992, slightly after the release of Such Sweet Thunder’s CD, “Redneck.” It took a one and a half years to complete. The styles and bands are way too disparate to even try and summarize.
