New York City (2000 – present)

Leftöver Crack is a political ska-punk/hardcore punk band formed in 2000 that rose from the remains of the seminal ska-punk band Choking Victim, which released one very-low budget LP and a couple of EPs in the 1990s. LöC is often referred to as “squatcore” for its practice of that lifestyle. They write music that is anti-capitalist, anti-WTO/NAFTA, anti-racist, anti-police, anti-homophobic, anti-sexist, and anti-fascist. They span several different music genres including crust punk, ska, andhardcore punk,]. LöC was formed with a higher production value than Choking Victim, and new topics were discussed. LöC, combined with Choking Victim and two other bands, Morning Glory and INDK, share a total of seven members between them. These seven musicians are collectively referred to as the “Crack Rock Steady Seven” (CRS7). The line-up of Leftover Crack changes fairly often, drawing on members of other NYC punk bands such as The Stockyard Stoics and The X-Possibles, with Stza, Alec and Ezra the only completely permanent members (Though Ezra was absent for most of the few 2005 gigs due to a blood infection). Brad Logan, or “Brad Minus” from F-Minus was not around for Mediocre Generica.

Leftöver Crack, in addition to the rest of the CRS7, combines elements of ska, hardcore, and crust punk, Choking Victim in particular also referred to itself as squat-core, and have also been known as crack rock steady music. the term “squat-core” comes from its focus on the lives of abandoned tenement squatters in New York City and writing songs about the poor.

Well for the most part they do, aye. But in general I find them pretty hard to take seriously, just. Like I said, they have a really good message and all - but the one thing anyone seems to associate them with is drugs, drugs, drugs. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing, it just sort of takes away from the socio-political stuff they try to drive home. Apart from that, Stza just kind of annoys me, but that's a personal thing so that doesn't really matter.
