Demo Feature - Zero Bars
The next set is celebrating the life of Drew Gates the singer of local legends Riot 99. Drew was active in the 90s, Sydney street punk and Oi scene with his bands Compound Fracture (or Com Frac) and Stanley Knife, before moving from Australia to Toronto; where he formed Riot 99. I couldn’t tell you the exact show I met Drew at in 1999, but I can tell you that after meeting him, things were never the same for our little group of Scarborough punks or the Toronto scene as a whole. One of the wildest people I’ve ever met. A borne story teller. A writer. An actor. A musician. An, a poet. Drew loved to make ordinary situations extraordinary and spin tales of his life back in Australia, abroad (in Hong Kong and India) and keep you posted on his latest piss takes. We’re going to kick the set off with a song played by Com Frac, Stanley Knife and Riot 99. Perhaps his magnum opus?

Debut release of no-frills punk from this Canadian power-trio. Well, there might be one singular frill. The second song on the four-song demo adds a little post-punky WIRE vibe into their standard faster realm of mid-tempo punk sound, and it is the coolest song on the tape. All the songs are instantly catchy and driving. The demo is short enough that if you’re anything like me, you’ll end up flipping it over and over when the tape clicks just to get your fix.
