Very good comparisons...Chameleons, Echo, Wire Train, early U2 are some of the bands that come to mind. I can answer a few questions in regards to the band as I played the drums with this band. A lot of politics within the band forced us to quit somewhere around 89. 30 years has gone by so fast and we are all still good friends. My self and Kevin (guitarist singer) play in an Alt 80’s cover band for fun called The Ray-Band 80’s. We play in the SoCal area a few times a month and just have fun. We both have had the same day job for 30+ years, Kevin has worked at Capitol Records Mastering and I do metal fab. Dave the bass player lives in Denmark since 96 but we see him every so often. Kevin and Dave didn’t do any other bands after 60th but we recorded 5 songs at Capitol in 93 and never finished the mixing completely therefor the songs were shelved. I played with 100 Days Like This (3 Years and lived in London, and yes Nirvana came along ????) and The American Wake (15 years and retired from them is 2011)Just recently I added a song to YouTube by Sixtieth Parallel called Annabelle She, it’s a descent recording but could be better with a better final mix. We are hoping to record an EP of those unreleased songs plus some other songs in the new year with the bass player from our current cover band, the original bass player in The Opaque Window. I have a studio in my home and with the way times have changed in the recording industry it should be easy to get some new material out there. I am still very passionate about 60th. We played a gig for all our close friends a few years ago and it was just like old times. Thanks for your interest and I hope to have the new songs finished some time next year. ????

This is a pretty interesting record that I'd never even heard of until recently. I feel like I'd seen it around for years, but the cover didn't exactly entice me to check it out. After randomly hearing a song online, I figured I would take the chance at my local record shop for $3 and...Sixtieth Parallel is really awesome. I hate to make direct comparisons to other specific groups, so I will just say that this record would definitely appeal to fans of Chameleons (UK), For Against or (early) Wire Train...or pretty much anyone who likes catchy, guitar-driven post-punk. The songwriting and guitar work on these six songs (one of which, "Like Dust," is apparently a cover) are excellent. The production obviously has some of the "80s sound" to it, but it doesn't detract from the songs. In fact, it adds a layer of nostalgic mystery to this under-the-radar group. For some reason, this record seems almost too good to be the only document of this group. I am kind of curious if any of the members were in other bands with recordings (either before or after Sixtieth Parallel). The bio on Discogs notes another group called Opaque Windows, but I can't seem to find any info on them.

Spot on there, on the comparisons. I thought the same thing when I heard this on a local station in Los Angeles when it was actually released. It was Summer '88 - and the guitars reminded me of The Chameleons UK, and the songs like the whole Independent Project Press bands, i. e., for against and Chamber of Hellos KROQ era.They played a small club and I went with some friends - that was it. Many cool, one-off obscure bands back then. Also the guitars were just perfect - surprised they never got picked up by a major. Maybe they did but a release went sour. I was at Geffen a year later and we released 'Strange Times' on cd finally in '93, after I convinced the Sales Department head to do it...then Nirvana happened.
