BOLD HISTORY

“Back I looked on years spent and all the things I’ve seen.
‘Cause I’m so much older, you must know what I mean.
I’ve learned from those days, both good and bad.
Thinking back on all those times I had.”

The sounds and messages of the forefathers of American Hardcore traveled from Boston and surrounding New England down the Mass Pike and across I-84, from D.C. via 95 North and the NJ Turnpike, from California and Nevada via 80 East, and even from not-so-distant New York City by heading up 87 North and the Saw Mill Parkway. These sounds and messages - that echoed off graffitied and stickered club walls, that were crammed into tight rehearsal spaces and low-budget recording spots, that were (sometimes and hopefully) laid onto vinyl and tape - somehow in their travels in the underground network of worldwide Hardcore, found four little kids in Katonah, New York who were gonna grab onto everything they heard and filter it into their own evolving understanding and creation of punk music, attitude, and spirit, and run with it.

By age 14, Matt Warnke (voice), John “Zulu” (guitar), Tim Brooks (bass), and Drew Thomas (beat) had taken detailed notes on the likes of Black Flag, 7Seconds, Minor Threat, Bad Brains, Agnostic Front, Antidote, The Abused, SSD, and DYS, among others.
