The Deadlines - The Death And Life Of... FLAC album

I remember going to school back in the late 1990s or 2000 and a girl in my class knew one of the members of this band and used to talk about them a lot. I can't remember the girl's name. I just remember she loved Dave Gahan and Depeche Mode. I think she must have met the guy from The Deadlines in Portland or from riding the bus. I've never actually heard these guys before and they're actually pretty fucking good. I had always imagined that they'd be heavy on the religious thing from being on Tooth and Nails Records but that doesn't seem to be the case at all. Just seems like a good Northwest garage / punk band. Cool shit, doesn't sound dated.
