'Sup Slackers!? Happy May Day! Carlos is back and we dig in to some of the 90s indie music scene in the Northeast. Connecticut was a Ska powerhouse, with a strong Hardcore scene in tandem with the wider NYHC scene. We talk of the influence of the DC punk rock scene throughout the Mid-Atlantic, with particular props to Ian MacKaye of MINOR THREAT & FUGAZI. We don't forget seminal hardcore band, DC's BAD BRAINS, or NY legends CRO-MAGS. You'll also hear how Carlos and I discovered "our" band, by mistake. Or rather, with BiG MiSTAKE - BLACK TRAIN JACK! We delve into the CT ska scene and bands like SPRING HEELED JACK USA and JC SUPERSKA, along with Boston favorites like the MiIGHTY MIGHTY BOSSTONES and BIM SKALA BIM. Not to mention CT Hardcore heroes YOUTH OF TODAY (Ray Cappo prior to SHELTER) and JASTA 14 (Jamey Jasta's band before HATEBREED). Plus, SICK OF IT ALL, BIOHAZARD, LIFE OF AGONY, JUDGE, and much, much more! I will also tell the story of the scariest pit I ever witnessed and how my roommate was at the center of it! And the funk in the title? A little band called The RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS!
