About Me

First off. Delete the other Stormwatch page. I lost the password and myspace wasnt sending it to me. I can no longer access it. Now about our history. The band first began as an idea in 1990. Jeff and Tim were friends who talked about doing a band together. We knew this guy named Don who also had ideas of doing a band. After a few talks, he informed us that his brother matt played drums and he knew a bassist named scott. We all got together and so started the journey. The initial line up of the band was Jeff on vocals, Tim on guitar, Don on guitar, Scott on bass, and Matt on drums. We named the band "Moral Outrage" and began practicing. After a few short practices things with scott werent working out. We recruited another friend "Lloyd" to take over on bass. Once Lloyd was in the fold we were on track. We released our first official demo under the name of "Moral Outrage" in 1991. After it was released, we decided to change the band name. We wanted something that was more fitting of our sound and thus "Stormwatch" was officially born in 1991. This line up endured until right after our debut album, "At War With Peace" was released in 1993. At that time, we parted ways with Don and Matt. Don was never replaced on second guitar. Matt was replaced on drums by Don D.K. He lasted a brief time and was replaced by Jeff C in the same year. This is the line up that would finally hit its stride. With this line up, we all clicked. We released our second full length album in 1996 entitled "Right To Remain Violent". The band eventually broke up in 1998. After the break up, Lloyd became a family man, got married, and now has two kids. Jeff C just retired from bands and worked. Jeff(sab) and Tim(terrible) both continued on in various bands however. Sab would then front the band "Combat Ready" They released one CD entitled "Combat Ready... Hates You". It was released on Vulture Rock Records in the year 2000. Tim would make his mark much louder however. He helped start up what was to become the sickest thing going. Bad Luck 13. As "Terrible" in this band he pushed his body to the limits of what a human body can endure in the way of pain. Wrestling in barbed wire, thumb tacks, and basically inflicting violence in ways most people cant fathom. Nowdays, Jeff(Sab) isnt really in any bands. Tim however contines to forge on. He now plays guitar in metal band "Blackthroat". They just released a demo cd, so check em out. What now follows is a discography of sorts for what stormwatch released. For any more info, just ask. 1991- 7 song demo tape. 1993- At War With Peace Full Length. 10 song LP, 14 song cassette, 16 song CD. 1996- Right To Remain Violent Full Length. 15 song CD. We also appeared on numerous compilation 7 inches, lp's and cd's.

Member Since: 9/23/2006
Band Website: None
Band Members: Jeff(Sab)- Vocals, Tim(Terrible)- Guitar, Lloyd(Dingo)- Bass, Jeff.C(Cromp)- Drums
Influences: Mainly late 80's Era American Oi!, Old American Hardcore, Old British Oi!, Old Punk, Alcohol, Violence, All That Good Shit. We were influenced by life as we saw it and as we lived it. Our music was a reflection of that.
Sounds Like: Music For Violent Drunks. Other than that, its just balls to the wall Oi! and we call it Oi! It isnt this watered down play it safe stuff that you hear nowdays. Where Oi! has become a bad word and everyone wants to sound the same and call their music "streetpunk". We were never afraid to spit in the face of political correctness or step on any toes. We told it like it was. We were at one time labeled as "america's most controversial Oi! band". Simply because we didnt jump on any bandwagons or play follow the leader like everyone else was. In short, we spoke our minds and didnt give a fuck who liked it. Still dont. Take it or leave it, we are what we are and we never sold ourselves out.
Record Label: Gmm Records, Dim Records, Under Siege Records
Type of Label: Indie
