They span several different music genres including , , and,]. 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.
