Someone (November 8, 2005)

I personally dislike Leftover Crack alot

Someone (November 8, 2005)

Their singer is a douche.

Someone (November 8, 2005)

how is he a dousche? ( I just wanna know)

Someone (November 8, 2005)

I would say he is a douche because of all his anti sxe lyrics. also because him and the other band members actually do SMOKE CRACK.

Someone (November 9, 2005)

Straight edge sounds like a good reason to be a douche. Besides my personal opinion, their songs are pro-drugs not anti straight edge. There is a difference. They don't put down straight edge. They have some guy rambling before a song about those straight edge christ core fuckers don't know shit. That guy ain't even in the band. You straight edge guys are some touchy, moody fucks. Also, if you don't like bands with members in them that do drugs, you are missing out on a lot of great music. You shouldn't be so closed minded

Someone (November 9, 2005)

And there is something wrong with doing those things? Sounds like a good person to me.

Someone (November 16, 2005)

fair comment. why? and why is stza a douche. at least hes honest about his drug takin. and the song athiest anthems, bout 'all the guys in the straight edge scene in the basement doin gasoline ' refers to the straight edge kids who fink its ok to wear the black cross and not drink at shows but when they get back home there either shootin vodka or sniffin glue-pussies.

Someone (November 25, 2005)

Leftover crack are fucking legends!! amazing im seein crack rock steady 7 2morrow its gonna be soo good!

druhol (November 8, 2005)

That is a pretty awesome band name.

Someone (November 8, 2005)

why does it have to be so fucking confusing.

skaboom (November 8, 2005)

I'm not sure exactly where CRS7 fit in, but the rest of the group/groups work like this: Choking Victim was first, released one album on Epitaph (No Gods, No Managers) then they split up. Half of them formed LoC, the more ska side of the band, and half formed INDK, who are punk rock.

Someone (November 8, 2005)

No Commercial Value came first, then Choking V. Different drummer, then they're Leftover Crack. INDK featured a bunch of members from these various bands, and the key difference being a different singer and main songwriter (Ezra instead of Sturgeon/Stza). INDK broke up, Ezra went on to form Morning Glory. The Crack Rock Steady 7 refers to 7 of the various musicians from all these bands, but mostly from the Stza fronted bands.

skaboom (November 8, 2005)

I figured I was leaving out details somewhere. So, if there are 7 guys in this band, what do they all play?

Someone (November 8, 2005)

I honestly don't know how they'd work out all 7 on stage (or who exactly is part of the CRS7), but here's my attempt at trying to figure it out! Stza on vocals Two guitarists, I'm guessing one Ezra, and the other Brad (of F-Minus, but I'm not sure if he's technically one of the 7) Alec on bass Drummer Popeye (does some guest vocals on various songs, has been at all the shows I've seen of LoC in the last couple of years) And one more random dude

Someone (November 18, 2005)

brad logan is officialy part of the band. if they dont have enough numbers they just get peple from the crowd to join in dancing and singing.

Someone (November 8, 2005)

they're fuckin awesome...if only i was still in england...

Someone (November 8, 2005)

ok so lets get this straight. Choking Victim started with Shayne on bass Ezra joins, shane quits, alec joins on bass band records No Gods and then breaks up CV reforms under Leftover Crack with a new drummer at the same time ezra starts INDK AND Morning Glory Medocre Generica is released LOC does a split with F-Minus under the name Crack Rock Steady 7 Leftover Crack continues to tour LOC relased Fuck World Trade Their current drummer brandon dies Band goes on "Hiatus" Then out of nowhere Choking Victim starts playing shows again, Leftover Crack tour under the LOC name, and now are touring under Crack Rock Steady 7 name at the same time. So basically we have 3 of the same bands together at the same time. And with all of this, Morning Glory never offically broke up Leftover Crack formed, basically consisting of CV with a diff drummer

AlmostPunkEnough (November 8, 2005)

uh, yea, pretty much.

Someone (November 8, 2005)

Really? WHO CARES... they all suck

Someone (November 8, 2005)

I miss INDK

STF (November 8, 2005)

Wow. I've wanted to know that for quite some time now. Thank for you informing me.

Someone (November 15, 2005)

Alec and Sturgeon started No Commercial Value together, I thought Alec was still there when Choking Victim formed?

Someone (November 16, 2005)

Glad some one knows the score. anyway hope everyone enjoys the gigs, c.v, l.o.c or c.r.s.7. who gives a fuck!!!!

AlmostPunkEnough (November 8, 2005)

lucky europe

andrew13 (November 8, 2005)

new banners at the bottom of the page are annoying for the subcomment... and anyone notice this one? what a tool... http://www.punknews.org/images/banners//danny_diablo_ban ner_468x60.jpg oh, and LoC/CV/CRS7/INDK/MG/No Ca$H/Mad Conductor/Stockyard Stoics/Team Spider/ectectect all rule... i need to see LoC sometime... to bad you never have a clue what they're doing since they never keep their site to up to date.. also, favorite release by any of the bands is the CRS7 half of the split... the Mr. T intro is great and their whole side is nothing short of great...

IheartAdam (November 8, 2005)

Hello kids, it's the annual "who's gonna die next" Crs7 pool. Odds will b released shortly, accidental, overdose, murder, and scabies induced beating will all be on the wagering sheet.

Someone (November 8, 2005)

I would say the odds are for ezra. he hasn't been at the most recent shows i believe.

Someone (November 8, 2005)

He was getting some kinda ear surgery.

Someone (November 8, 2005)

Hahaha the drummer died after the show here in SA. BEST THING EVER!!!!!!!

Someone (November 8, 2005)

the only reason "The Crack Rock Steady 7" existed was because of Leftover Crack's contract with Hellcat. Supposedly they weren't supposed to release anything on a different label, so they released the split with F-Minus as the Crack Rock Steady 7, since the contract only applied to Leftover Crack.

FuckYouOiOiOi (November 8, 2005)

Why are all the good bands in fucking europe godammit?!? I don't have a problem with any european countries or any of that shit but for fucks sake, can't they coordinate it so that NOFX and GBH tour US and Unseen and Leftover Crack tour Europe/Asia (or vice versa) instead of everyone touring europe. Fuck.

boba_fett (November 8, 2005)

their whole crew is amazing. its one of those "well we're gonna go and do a record but our drummer is living in a different squat and our last guitarist od'd... lets get some new dudes and do this shit." i love them for that.

Someone (November 8, 2005)

they don't live in squats

Someone (November 18, 2005)

yes they do, dont you know anything? they squat at c-squat in NY there is a picture of their squat on the morning glory website: www.mglory.org

Someone (November 8, 2005)

left over crack got jumped at the show in west palm beach the last time they came hear. fuck that band

Someone (November 8, 2005)

You're lame shut up.

Someone (November 9, 2005)

They got jumped by like 30 skinheads. What pussies they are. The skinheads intimidated a bunch of their 14 year old fans. In fact the skins only beat up LOC's van and didn't touch any band members. Maybe one day a skin will try to fight someone 1 on 1. Doubt it. Fuck spirit of 77. Fuck West Palm Beach.

Someone (November 8, 2005)

they play more EU dates, at least 1 in NL!

Kid_Dynamite_ (November 8, 2005)

1. INDK is better than Leftover Crack, yet both cannot compare to CV 2. STZA pees on people live, do not stand too close. So if he disappears for a while with a water bottle and then starts throwin it on a sweaty crowd, bet your friend $200 he peed in it. 3. Gnarly

Someone (November 9, 2005)

awesome

Someone (November 8, 2005)

Breaking News People: Tyrone Biggums (Chappelle Show) has just joined Leftover Crack!

Someone (November 9, 2005)

not funny, just ghey

Someone (November 9, 2005)

at least I can spell gay. as in you are ?

crackrocksteadypunk (November 9, 2005)

When are skinheads going to get over their patriotic bullshit and stop trying to act tough.

Someone (November 9, 2005)

morning glory is the best hybrid of this band. Is Ezra still alive???

Someone (November 18, 2005)

i saw them last night at the shed, along with the infested and the mingers. both support bands were good, espescially the infested. leftover crack came on last; the only original member was the stza, the crack rock steady 7 line up was: stza; g lee chris knox. the last 4 are from the infested, then stza got two people from the crowd to make seven. they were amazing, there were only around 70 people there and 50 of them just stood at the back, but the 20 that where at the front (including myself) were skanking it up and singing along. we made up for the non-joiner-inners i think.

Someone (November 28, 2005)

fuckin much tighter than the original loc!

Someone (November 21, 2005)

Saw them on saturday in Sheffield, just the Infested with Stza singing. Bit of a letdown, but LOC get me so wet anyway that even when there's only one of them they still rule. Anyway, I just found out about that cop getting shot up in Bradford on Friday (yes, I do live under a rock) - I dunno if they'd heard about it, but it's a pretty edgy situation for CRS7 to be touring in, what with them pretending to kill a cop on stage and all. Does anyone know how they're reacting, if they're incorporating it into their set or what?

Someone (November 28, 2005)

i watched them on saturday fuckin awesome!!! but only stza was there..still it was a great show..especially the antimaniax!!
