Who took this photo? Please let me know! Oh geez, that horrible “pre-mosh” look on my face! Sweet Straight Ahead shirt though. And look at the motley crew singing along in that picture! 97a’s final show came in the weeks after 9-11 and was, I think, my first show since a series of horrific events (frankly, by the 11th a terrorist attack was the least of my concerns when your best friend was dead and another had tried to commit suicide as well) of the first part of the month. The show was in far, far, north New Jersey and…

Bottled Up Records, Committed, Floorpunch, Outlast, Ten Yard Fight, The Straight Edge, Youth Of Today
Outlast Take Control 7″ Bottled Up Records A Straight Edge band from New Jersey that sounds like Youth of Today– what is this, 1997? Despite the sarcasm, this is not at all bad. They remind me more of Committed or Ten Yard Fight than Floorpunch. Gang style backups, nice breakdowns, and posi lyrics throughout. Just wish they were more creative with their song titles; they sound a bit generic. For what they do, they do it well. Favorite track = “Power for Change”.

Get Down Second 7″ Piss Mountain Records After a few years of delay, this record finally came out last year. I have had a tape of it for many years, but I am glad it finally came out officially. Get Down was a short lived band, not surprisingly, reminding me of early Supertouch and bands like Swiz and Verbal Assault. After two seven inches, it seems like this band was starting to get their sound down, so it is unfortunate they didn’t do anything else. Members of Ten Yard Fight, In My Eyes, and Battery. As far as I can tell,…

I interviewed Clevo from the band Ten Yard Fight in May of 1998 for my old fanzine Broken Behind This Wall. * How did you end up in Ten Yard Fight? That’s a good question. It all started in the summer of 1995. I had gotten out of the Army the summer before and my life just kind of sucked. I had a lot of personal problems and I needed a change. I got back into Straight Edge when I got out of the Army and I started going to shows again now that I had a lot more freedom…

I interviewed Uprise at Fieldsboro on January 4th 1997 during either Floorpunch or Ten Yard Fight’s set. I think it was Ten Yard Fight actually, because I was angry we missed Floorpunch on the way home. My ride wanted to leave early for some insane reason. To miss Floorpunch?!? The lowest blow had to be having to listen to The Descendents on the whole ride home. Yeah I really want to hear Silly Girl while we drive in the opposite direction of the best band in hardcore. Thankfully, I got a car a few months later. Interview is with Matt,…

I did this one with John Lacroix in the fall of 1996. This was while Anthony was still around; in fact, I believe it may have been a week or two after the Hardcore Pride 7” came out. Originally in What Was Said #1 *** Who is in the band, and what do they play? Wrench-Vocals John-Bass Chris-Guitar Anthony-Guitar Ryan-Drums *** What do you have out and coming out? We did a demo, which we made 700 of and now it’s being repressed on vinyl by SOA Records. We did a 7” called Hardcore Pride on Big Wheel which will…

We did this interview at Princeton Arts Council in May of 1998. I believe this show was with Speak 714, Rain On The Parade, and Automatic. I can’t really tell you about what they are doing these days, but at the time we all really liked Ensign. A lot of my memories of that era have been soured over the years, but we used to have a lot of fun whenever Ensign played. Their first 7” has held up pretty well over the years. Justin and I handled most of the questions. When I went to type this up I…
