No Regime

No Regime

No Regime is an Alternative Punk Rock band that embraces ska, reggae and latin music in their songs. Their music focuses on social life and political issues.

The band formed in early 2009 in Los Angeles, CA and the line up consists of Jason Rea on Vocals, Enrique Suárez on Guitar, Andy Zamora on Drums and Marc Pardy on bass.

No Regime started to perform actively in Southern California after recording their first demo which featured 4 songs. One of the songs from this demo “Anguish” was featured on the Urban Shit Records compilation, a DIY label from the S.F. Valley in California and also on a UCLA Unsigned Bands compilation.

In February 2010, their first EP was released featuring 6 songs, getting positive reviews from industry professionals and respected punk related online websites. This EP is available to download for free via their myspace page. Some of the songs from this E.P. including "Anguish" and "Mr. Frilles" are constantly being played on online radio stations.

In March 2010, vocalist Jason Rea enters the band replacing Jake Yoshizaki. During the 2010 summer, the song “Anguish”, featuring Jason Rea on vocals, was selected to be part of the “Jane’s Addiction: In the Studio” Book Bonus Sampler released by Rock n’ Roll Books. In addition to that, the band shot their first music video for the song “Anguish” in Los Angeles, CA. The video was directed by Andres Arango and features Jason on vocals.

In August 2010, no Regime was a semifinalist on a Hard Rock Café competition in Las Vegas, NV, after defeating more than 20 national bands. The band has been performing different venues and events such as the Quiet Rebel Films Fundraiser, organized by this film production company based in Los Angeles, the famous Etnies Skate Park in Orange County, CA, the "Best Rock Night in Hollywood" according to the Los Angeles Times at Cinespace in Hollywood, CA among others.

The band has been writing new music, preparing the release of a new E.P. with Jason on vocals, increasing their fan base and continuously performing in Southern California.

No Regime pride themselves on their distinguished, intense and energetic live performances.

Narcoleptic Youth

Narcoleptic Youth is a punk rock band, formed in Corona, California in either 1992, 1994, or 1996 depending on which member you ask! Their sound has been described as a mixture of early UK and US styles of punk fused with intelligent, often subliminally sarcastic lyrics which revolve around anything from modern politics to social commentary to psychological fantasy.   While they don’t immitate any one particular sound, their music has often been compared to that of groups like The Dead Kennedys, Adolescents, Subhumans, and Black Flag. The band built up a strong local following in the late 90s through playing shows with D.I., UK Subs, Youth Brigade, Fear, The Dickies, Vice Squad, Peter and the Test Tube Babies, The Misfits, Agent Orange, TSOL, The Angry Samoans, and their largest show to date opening for The Subhumans in front of 6,000 people. 
     Their first release was a split album with fellow Southern California punk band The Atomic Bombs in 1997 on Nigma Records.  For the following two years, the band worked non-stop on building up one of, if not the, largest fan bases out of all the current Southern California punk rock groups. During these two years, they moved up from being the “go to” direct support band for the “legends” to the headliner themselves.  They also released several singles including: Classified (Cassette), The Good The Bad and the Fugly(CD), Barbi In Bondage (Pink Vinyl 7”), and Vicious Killers split with The Voids (both Black and Pink Vinyl 7”).  In total, they’ve sold over 5,000 singles without any backing from a record label.
     The group ushered in the new millenium with the critically acclaimed, and self released, “How To Fake Your Death” full length album.  According to lead vocalist and producer of the album, Joey Bondage, “It was not our intent, but it actually turned into a dark concept album with a slight twist of comedy. I wanted to put out an album that would silence any critic we ever had…from start to finish.”  And that they certainly did!  By the end of the year, they were selling out well known clubs all across Southern California such as The Glasshouse in Pomona, Chain Reaction in Anaheim, and The Showcase Theatre in Corona just to name a few.
     In 2004, Narcoleptic Youth released “Chronological Disorder”, a singles collection, which quickly became their top selling album.  They also began stepping up into bigger venues opening for groups like The Dead Kennedys at The House of Blues in Anaheim, CA., TSOL at The Henry Fonda Theater in Los Angeles, CA.,  The Adolescents at Soma in San Diego, CA., as well as tours all across the southwest from Sacramento, CA. to Phoenix, AZ. as direct support for groups like The Adolescents and The Adicts.  In addition to these tours the band has also performed in festivals such as several dates on the Warped Tour in 2004, and a co-headlining spot on the 2004 Supercade Music Fest at the Orange Pavilion in San Bernardino with groups such as The Aquabats, Death By Stereo, Strung Out, Throwrag, and The Start.       Yet another album was released in 2004 on Galeforce Records called “Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed”, a 4 song EP with two bonus track cover songs: Ignite (Damned) and Bullet (Misfits), as well as 5 live tracks from their show opening for the Subhumans back in 1998. The album was produced by Ulysses Noriega (Offspring, Beck, Lower Class Brats, Channel 3), mastered by East Bay Ray of the Dead Kennedys, and featured artwork by Pete Dee of The Adicts.

Narcoleptic Youth

     While the group has gone through a few line up changes over the years,  one thing has definitely remained consistent, that being their legendary live concerts which have been known to include not only top notch musical performances, but also whipped cream, cross dressing, Barbie dolls and a few other things we probably shouldn’t mention!  Narcoleptic Youth continues to record and pack out venues with original members: Joey Bondage (vocals), Johnny Cat (drums), Jay sin (guitar), and newer member: Junior Mental (bass).  Their latest releases are 2007’s vinyl picture disc 7” Cocktail Sword b/w Favourite Dove On Suburbia Records, produced by Ulysses Noriega and the second and final pressing of their Barbi In Bondage 7” on Dr. Strange Records in 2008.  Two Narcoleptic Youth songs, “Dear John” and “Headcase” are also featured in the new Stillwater Films award winning documentary, “Punk’s Not Dead”,  out now on DVD!. On April 1, 2009 Dr.Strange re-released the CLASSIC "Airplay" album which includes 2 bonus track cover songs and an interview. First 500 copies come with original CD sleaves signed by the band!

Reagen Youth

David Rubinstein was born in 1964. He formed "Reagan Youth" with guitarist Paul Bakija when both were in high school in Rego Park, Queens. While they were still in high school, the band played the punk clubs of Manhattan. In fact, David's science teacher became a roadie for the band (That high school teacher was so into the punk scene that he shaved his head and as a result almost go fired by the school administration).

As the members graduated from high school, Reagan Youth was performing regularly at C.B.G.B.'s and an established band on the country's budding punk rock scene. They recorded a single, then an album. They toured cross-country many times, performing with all of the great hard-core punk bands of that era. At the "Rock Against Racism" shows in the early 1980s, Reagan Youth shared the bill with the Dead Kennedys, the Bad Brains, and others.

Reagan Youth recorded its first album and signed a simple contract, hand-written on the back of a poster for a gig. That album sold over forty thousand (40,000) copies. The band also appeared on several compilations albums, including Live at C.B.G.B.'s. They were a mainstay at C.B.G.B.'s Sunday afternoon hard-core matinee concerts.

Reagan Youth's music was ironic and political. They preached the gospel of "peace punk." David was known as "Dave Insurgent." The name "Reagan Youth" was ironic, given David's family background as holocaust survivors. The cover of their 2nd LP featured a photo of Hitler shaking hands with an emissary of the Pope. Their song titles included "Jesus Was A Communist" and "New Aryans."

By the late 1980s, the members of Reagan Youth were frustrated and worn out from years of touring and drug abuse. They had never made any money in the music industry. When Ronald Reagan left the White House, they officially disbanded. David and several other band members continued to play music together, although their new group never achieved the same success or momentum as Reagan Youth.

By this time as well, David had developed a serious heroin addition. He was also dealing drugs, although he was not very shrewd at it. David had the bad habit of consuming the drugs he was supposed to be selling. He was a loudmouth. When a supplier would ask him for money that was owed, David would sometimes reply, "You'll get you money when I say you get it."

In a drug deal gone bad, another drug dealer violently beat up David with a baseball bat. He was hospitalized for weeks. When he got out, he returned to his parents' home. There, he continued to use drugs, smoking pot in his bedroom as his parents tried to help him recover. Eventually David left his parents' home and moved back to the lower East Side. By now, between the violent assault and his continued drug use, he was no longer an energetic anarchist. He had become a bit disheveled, and many of his friends from the punk scene no longer associated with him.

David began dating Tiffany B., a prostitute who worked on Houston Street. David had told his parents that she was a dancer. Tiffany supported the couple and their drug habit by turning tricks. David would often hang out on the street with Tiffany, waiting while she serviced a customer, and then going with her to score drugs.

Around this time, David's mother died in a freak car accident. One night, David and Tiffany were waiting on Houston Street when a familiar customer pulled up in a pick-up truck. Tiffany got in, telling David that she would return in twenty minutes. She never came back. David called the police with a description of the truck and went to all the hospital emergency rooms in the city searching for Tiffany. A few days later, on Long Island, the police pulled over a truck and found Tiffany's body in the bank. They arrested the driver, Joel Rifkin, Long Island's most famous serial killer, who was later linked to killing numerous prostitutes.

Depressed and alone, after the unexpected losses of his girlfriend and his mother, David headed into a downward spiral. One month later, David Rubenstein p/k/a "Dave Insurgent" committed suicide.

DR.CHUD

DR.CHUD. that name alone strikes fear and disgust to those unlucky enough to know it. Who is he? Where did he come from? Well I am going to try and piece together his checkered and quite bloody past. Most of you have heard of the abominable Doctor due to the 6 years he spent with the legendary punk rock group known as The Misfits but there is far more to this story than that. On April 4th, 1964 this world was unfortunate enough to witness the birth of DR.CHUD, named after the movie that would be made some 20 years later with the acronym Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Drummer!

He started playing drums in 6th grade, by 8th grade he started playing in local bands around town. When he was in high school he started taking lessons from Les DeMerle, Sonny Igoe, and finally Dennis Delucia, joining DCI (Drum Corp International) in 1983 with The Bayonne Bridgemen. In 1985 DR.CHUD started playing the club circuit for a few original rock bands until his professional musical career started as the lead skin basher for Dan Kidney and the Pulsations. For 8 years he terrorized audiences with the Pulsations until the band broke away and DR.CHUD latched onto Sardonica featuring Sal Bee and Fish. DR.CHUD at this time also started a side-project known as Sacred Trash where he wrote, played guitar and even sang on the bands debut and only release. The band was sort of a warm up of things to come. Playing hard hitting horrorrock fit DR.CHUD well and when the call came from Jerry Only of The Misfits for DR.CHUD to join up, he answered back with an affirmative "yes". Then things began to move in a horrifically fast gear.

1996 saw a world-wide "resurrection tour" and almost immediately following that tour The Misfits were in the studio recording the bands first record in roughly 20 years for Geffen Records. The record was to be called "American Psycho" and featured quite a few songs penned by DR.CHUD. 2 years, numerous tours, (with acts like Megadeth, Marilyn Manson & Anthrax to name a few), singles, and a live record produced by DR.CHUD passed. Then the group hit the studio again this time for RoadRunner Records, and the album was "Famous Monsters". About the same time DR.CHUD and fellow Misfit Jerry Only recorded "1969" with Joey Ramone for a Iggy Pop tribute record "They Will Fall", the track was later used on the late Joey Ramone's only solo record entitled "Don't Worry About Me". After 6 years with the group, 2 studio records, 1 live recording, appearances in such hit films as "Animal Room", "Bruiser", "Campfire Stories" and "Big Money Hustlas", and even time spent as a WCW wrestler, DR.CHUD walked away to form a new group. (After there depature however The Misfits released "Cuts From The Crypt" on RoadRunner Records, a collection of rarities and unreleased tracks).

In 2001 DR.CHUD formed Graves and it was off the ground almost 1 year later to the date that DR.CHUD left The Misfits (10/25/00). Within 1 years time the group arranged 2 nation-wide tours. Immediately following the 1st tour known as "Web Of Dharma (Strand 1)" the band hit the studio to record a CD of the same name. DR.CHUD produced and distributed the record through his own record company, the second leg of the "Dharma" tour took place in 2002 and the band disbanded shortly after causing mass panic and chaos as to what the Doc would be doing next.

It's 2003 and his antidote for punk rock terror known as Dr.Chud’s X-Ward explodes across the U.S. and Canada! DR.CHUD"s solo band is born and his 2004 solo debut “Diagnosis for Death” becomes a classic in the horrorpunk underworld. DR.CHUD would take his band across the U.S. every year proving why he is the leader in the horrorpunk world today.

In 2008 DR.CHUD gets a call to play drums to complete Gorgeous Frankenstein a group consisting of Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein, Graham Reaper, Alex Story and Gorgeous George. The band is currently working on there second release due out this year on evilive records produced by Glenn Danzig,

The South Central Skanker

The South Central Skankers Rise from Lost Angeles Don’t confuse your racing heart, rising temperature and the uncontrollable urge to thrash your body in all directions with a fatal illness; you are merely experiencing the symptoms of the infectious sounds of the South Central Skankers. They show up with a five-piece, mad brass section, a walking baseline and unique, offbeat guitar chords that can’t help but entice people to get on their feet and SKANK! Skanking can only be described as the single most extreme motion attainable by the human being and is really the only way to cut loose and dance. Let’s just say The South Central Skankers do not discriminate; they intoxicate! Their unique and upbeat sounds attract people of all ages and from all walks of life. The Skankers create a sound that cannot be ignored by combining ska, punk, metal and Latin. Their influences vary from underground to highly established bands, many of which were born out of Los Angeles. The Skankers first joined forces in 2000 and in the fall of 2003, they went to the studio to record their first L.P. Now that SCS have reached a level beyond what you may call “up and coming” and are reaping some of their well-deserved success. The South Central Skankers have rocked the stages of the well-known Captiva Showcase during South By Southwest for the past four years, and have now gained the reputation for supreme rock-ability. The Skankers recipe for a perfect ska show combines “a killer intro, eight of your best songs, mullet wigs, ties and bow ties, Chile Tapatio, Masks, Corona Beer, Red Stripe Beer, Patron, Gray Goose, Jagermeister, Monster, Red Bull, Diamonds, White gold, Grills, Carne Asada Tacos, Joose, a Mexican flag and some Stickyest of the Ickyest.” With all of that thrown in the mix, how could you not have a successful show. After three years of unexpected twists and turns, The Skankers much anticipated album, Welcome to Lost Angeles, will be available for digital download June 23 with Captiva Records. The inspiration for the album's title, Welcome to Lost Angeles, originates from LA's dual reality. The glamorous, sunny beaches that the media portrays are in stark contrast to the dilapidated reality that lies beneath. The album was produced by TJ Rivera at Top Level Studios and The Skankers own Miguel Rodriguez. SCS will hit the road and tour with this album, but keep your skanking shoes on for the next! We dare you to stifle your urge to dance to the contagious rhythms produced by the South Central Skankers.
The band will rock out June 6th in the L.A. SKACORE Invasion 2009 in honor of their CD release. SCS will hit the road and tour with this album, but keep your skanking shoes on for the next! We dare you to stifle your urge to dance to the contagious rhythms produced by the South Central Skankers.

Social Task

THE EARLY YEARS-1978 In Orange County, beach cities were churning out fast raw cutting edge punk rock with a unique distinct sound. Standard four verse, four chorus patterns were now giving way to more innovative style’s created in Huntington Beach. During this time, 1978 there were approximately nine bands creating this beach city sound with varying numbers of fans following each group. The scene was divided into two distinct groups: "Day Glo" punks and the "Black Jacket" punks.

South of Beach Blvd near Pacific Coast Highway was the small Surfside community which fielded two bands: The Outsiders (a.k.a The Fucked) and The Slashers spawning a violent form of beach city punk rock. Still, further south near Brookhurst Street and Bushard Ave, were Day-Glo elements of The Crowd and The Voyeurs and the fans were predominately surf punks. Between these two scenes, various other bands formed in the Shorecrest West area of Burke Tract. From here, you would find bands like The Klan and The Screwz and The Idols, Non-Fascists and Fourth Reich. It was from here, the talent was drawn from to eventually form up a band, Sisunik: would dub the phrase “Social Task”. Edison High School, became the median ground zero for hundreds of beach city punk rockers which by 1980 numbered nearly 600 in one high school of about 5,000 students. From this fan base, Punk Rock organized elements into consolidated fan base, to defend against the growing threat of Hippie and Jock related violence. “Crop Dusters” and “Rock Patrol” roving about the Beach cities was a real problem for our scene at that time. Thus, the name “Social Task” was born. With increased street violence drawing the attention of local law enforcement, unprecedented profiling of punk rockers was now unfolding into downright police harassment. So, it seemed in the face of these threats, most of the fan base began to make the trek north into the Los Angeles club scene. In those days, there was competition in the Slam pits for domination with neighboring cities of which the Beach city reputation for violence began to spread like wildfire. By 1979, The Outsiders, The Klan, The Idols, Fourth Reich, The Slashers and Non-Fascists had broken up and many of the members were now forging new concepts brought back from the L.A. scene. It was from this new concept, that bands like China White, The Blades, and Social Task had sprung out creating a new sound melded with elements of previous composition written to create that very unique and distinctive Beach city (Orange County) sound. Don Snell, had just left The Idols and began collaborating with Jeff Milucky, and John Blake and working on some new songs and trying out several singers. Meanwhile, Slashers vocalist Scott Sisunik, had been in The Non-Fascists and forming up the earliest China White lineup with Frank Ruffino and Marc Martin, and introduced James Rodriquez and Skitch-blade.

Social Task proved to be short lived and disbanded around the beginning of 1981. In December of 1979, the band recorded a five song demo at Adamo's Audio which was a studio used by Warner Brothers. The band left the reel at Adamo's Audio and forgot all about it for years. Fast forward to 2007 and the discovery that Adamo's Audio was still in business and actually still had the reel! Artifix Records began making plans with Social Task to bake and transfer the reel and put it out on vinyl.

Common Enemy

Common Enemy comes straight out of Reading, Pennsylvania. Bringing you songs about skateboarding, horror movies, everyday life, and personal politics.

In 1998 the band was formed, under a different name and with various lineup changes. In 2000 the name was changed to Common Enemy and with this lineup recorded "Outsiders".

In 2003 when Sonic and Greg Disorder joined the band, Common Enemy was truely born. Right away a tight bond was formed and everyone became more serious about playing out and having fun! With this lineup Common Enemy recorded the "Late Night Skate" CD, "Let's Have Fun!" 7” EP, Eyes of Hate / Common Enemy "Circle Pit Split" 7”, The Twats vs. Common Enemy "One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall" split 7" and have tracks on various compilations nationally and internationally. This lineup was also responsible for an East Coast / Midwest tour, a Midwest tour, a European tour, and too many extensive short / weekend tour stretches in the Northeast, Mid Atlantic, and Eastern Midwest to mention.

In April 2006 Sonic left the band to pursue education in Recording Arts in FL. In his place, longtime friend Mikey stepped in to take over on vocals. With Mikey, Common Enemy recorded another full length CD entitled "T.U.I.", and also has tracks on various compilations as well. This lineup is also responsible for a Southern U.S. tour, planning on a second European tour this May 2007, and more non-stop, unrelenting and extensive short / weekend tour schedules.

In 2007 Mikey decided to leave the band for personal reasons. Sonic had just returned home from school and filled in for 2nd European tour. He also recorded some songs for Common Enemy / L.E.A.R.N. "Till Death" split 7".

The band is best known for their in your face music style and in July of 2007 tryouts for a new singer began. With amazing luck, they came across Gary who fit the role perfectly. With Gary taking the helm, they have recorded "Common Enemy vs. Everybody's Enemy" CD (released in Japan), one 4 way split CD released in Europe, and various compilations nationally and internationally! Playing whenever possible, writing a new full length CD, and getting ready for their 3rd invasion of Europe in Sept 2008, this band kicks you in your teeth!

Marginal Man

Marginal Man was a hardcore punk band that emerged in the Washington, D.C. hardcore scene in 1983. Some members of Marginal Man played earlier in Artificial Peace, a band which appears on Dischord Records’ important Flex Your Head compilation, an essential document of the 1980’s D.C. punk scene. They played for five years before a final performance at the 9:30 Club in 1988.

Members of the band included:
- Steve Polcari - Vocals
- Pete Murray - Guitar, Vocals
- Kenny Inouye - Guitar
- Andre Lee - Bass
- Mike Manos - Drums

They released one EP, Identity (Dischord 13), an LP in 1984 called Double Image (Gasatanka/Enigma) and appeared on the compilations, State of the Union and 20 Years of Dischord (Dischord 125).

Marginal Man were known for energetic live performances, with long haired lead singer Polcari leaping into the air, displaying a more “rock” style than many bands in D.C. They were also a precursor to today’s “emo” scene, with shows interrupted on occasion by a grief stricken Pete Murray who could break down with thoughts of a friend who’d committed suicide. Unlike the lower class punks of the U.K, or blue collar roots elsewhere, many D.C bands like Marginal Man had family links to solid middle & upper class establishment instituitions, their shows were attended on occasion by guitarist Inouye’s father for example, a prominent Senator from Hawaii. Although Marginal Man and many other bands of this era were neither as commercially sucessful, long-lived nor as memorable as such bands as Minor Threat, such lesser-known bands are considered by some to be more representative of the energy, spontaneity, and communal feeling of the time.
