Report Suspicious Activity

"Recently featured in the documentary "American Hardcore" for his time
fronting Articles of Faith, VIC BONDI returns to form alongside J
ROBBINS (Jawbox, Burning Airlines) and DARREN ZENTEK (Kerosene 454) to
Washington, D.C.
"Like many Americans, in 2005 Bondi found himself increasingly angry and
frustrated with a variety of factors that had become permanent fixtures
on the American landscape- a ravaged economy, a pointless war,
allegations of torture, threats of terrorism and the rise of religious
bigotry and fear.
"Melding his anger to his experience with the hardcore
scene in the band Articles of Faith, Bondi harnessed his anger and
unleashed it on the world with ReportSuspiciousActivity.
Alternative Tentacles released their self-titled debut (Virus341) in
Fall of 2005.

The Minus One on slide show now playing "The Minus One" is the name of the group Dana Alberts, Liam Hart and Mike Henry started in the eighties. The band released four singles through the "Skate Rock" series through Thrasher Magazine, and appeared on “One Giant Leap”, a compilation record released in England on Venture Records in 1983. The next year, they recorded “Where A Man Was Made,” with Spencer Dryden on drums (Jefferson Airplane drummer) and Naomi Ruth Isenberg (Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks) on violin. Minus One toured the U.S. in 1985 with the VKTMS, the punk band formed by drummer Louis Gwerder and featuring Nyna Crawford. Later that year Alberts was approached by Danny Sugerman, the author and former manager of the “Doors, and Iggy Pop's manager, after Sugerman had heard a tape of the band. This led them to an offer of a record deal from Geffen Records. The band, broke up before the deal could be consummated. They reformed in late 2006, and are be currently rehearsing to play extensively in 2007.
