Grieving Eucalyptus was a three-piece band from Berks County, PA who combined the sounds of Buddy Holly, garage rock, and punk-pop groups like The Buzzcocks and the Rezillos. That’s the write-up that Angelo gave me and I’m sticking to it.

Their name has come up a few times in the previous interviews like Chuck from Weston, Josh from the Overdrives, Arik from Creep Records, Jessie from Weston, and a ton more. To be honest I forget exactly which interviews they were mentioned but you can go back to those episodes and let me know.

After some scheduling issues on my part, I got Angelo on the phone and this is what we talked about:

• Who from the PA scene did he go to college with
• Skinheads in the scene
• Getting on Kevin seconds record label
• The scene in Western PA
• His letter to Superchunk
• His band Sadaharu
• The Every time I Die Story
• His record store with his wife
• And a ton more

If you’re in Lancaster PA check out his brother’s record store Mr. Suit Records.
