The Underground Railroad to Candyland

Starting in 1989 with the release of his band F.Y.P.’s Extra Credit EP, Todd Congelliere has been steadily releasing records of his own and of similarly minded individuals via his Recess Records imprint. Todd C’s releases may be the highlight though; between F.Y.P.’s early bratty punk, to the more mature melodicism of The Underground Railroad to Candyland, Toys that Kill, his own solo project, and others, Congelliere’s pop sensibility has only blossomed with age, churning out more and more memorable records as the years have rolled on.
