"There was this one moment, and this is what I always flash back to whenever I think of Undertow. It was a spring, or maybe summer, Sunday afternoon show at the Velvet Elvis in 1994. The 'Tow were 3 or 4 songs into it and a decent sized crowd was up front and singing along. It was turning into a fine show. The band starts into "Stalemate" and something happends right as the vocals are coming in. A power strip or fuse; I'm not sure which, but whatever it was died and immediately took the amps with it. That quick, the music went out. And nobody missed a beat. With nothing but drums and the crowd the song kept going, growing louder as more and more voices rose to fill the void the music had left. Everyone pressed forward. DAYS SLIP FROM MY HANDS LIKE SAND THROUGH AN HOURGLASS SATISFACTION FADES FROM MY SOUL AS I BURN, OUT OF CONTROL. And then the power came back on, almost as if that had been the plan all along, and what was possibly the best version of that song ever played continued. And the rest of the show was an inspired display of everything that made me love hardcore in the first place. Ten Years. That was TEN YEARS ago. Where did all that time go? The people in the crowd in these pictures... Where are they now? Did they see the same things I saw? Could they feel the same way that I did? That one moment felt like it could carry me for a year, and there were so many more like it. These pictures and these songs are a record of more than just a band, for me at least. They are the proof that what I felt at the show ten years ago was real."
"And it still is."
