In the summer of 2001 hans (guitarplayer) & anton (drummer) from ulrikes dream, a belgian grind-trash,punk-crust-band, started experimenting with playin some ska & reggae mixed with some punkrock. Nico joined em on bass and they started jammin. <br><br> A lot of familiar tunes were recycled in to ska, punk & reggea rifs such as mission impossible, the tetris-tune, johnny marchin home, the pink panther-tune, guns of brixton(the clash),etc... <br><br> In september Rekke joined the band as a singer, and we started to make some songs. The lyrics were very political and the band had an anarchist spirit. All members came from the leuven squat scene& were all involved in Villa squattus dei, the local squat, and one of the few place where punkconcerts could take place... <br><br> All members had pretty much different tastes in music: from metal to crust to anarchopunk to streetpunk to oi! to ska to reaggae to poppunk etc. wich resulted in an all influenced sound. <br><br> It was comparable to operation ivy, choking victim, radical dance faction, the clash,... (well we hoped). But we did try to avoid to become a generic ska-popunk-band: The vocals sounded dirtier and harder, and more important the message was a lot more radical. <br><br> On the 11th of october of 2001 Nico set up a gig for some punk-bands, R.A.T.S., fart & fat in villa squattus dei, and we decided to do a try out gig if there was some time left after the bands. & so we did. Everyone was really nervous. But we got people dancing from the first note (probably cause evreyone was completely drunk & in the mood to party). And the first try out was a great succes. And so the usual suspects story started... <br><br>
