Dance Hall Crashers came into existence after Tim Armstrong and Matt Freeman disbanded from the legendary ska-punk band Operation Ivy. Both departed soon after the Crashers’ formation (and later reunited in Rancid), leaving vocalist Elyse Rogers and guitarist Jason Hammon to lead the band.
The Dance Hall Crashers recorded a few songs during their first year (these are featured on The Old Record), and in 1990, they made their most notable lineup change, adding second vocalist Karina Denike. Soon after, the band members parted ways, but they played a reunion show in 1992 due to pressure from fans. The show met with great fanfare, and so the band decided to reunite on a more permanent basis, with Rogers and Denike on vocals, Hammon on lead guitar, his brother Gavin on drums, Scott Goodell on second guitar, and Mikey Weiss on bass.The Dance Hall Crashers song “Enough” was featured on the soundtrack for Angus (1995 film).
As of August 2005, the band members lead separate lives but still play a few shows per year. In November 2004 they played and recorded a show at the Hollywood House of Blues; the concert was released by Kung Fu Records in September 2005 as part of the popular The Show Must Go Off DVD series.

The Old Record isn't their debut album, it's a compilation which includes their debut as part of it. "He Wants Me Back" and "Othello" were recorded sometime after the album when the band reunited. (source.)

State of mind my favorite song by them, and one of the only good ones imo. Talented band though.

Just started listening to DHC. I've only heard "The Old Record" so far (which I'm in love with) so I'm a bit disappointed to find out they've ditched the horns since then. But I'll give LockJaw a listen in due time.
