The Statics were a punk band that started up in the summer of 1979. They were from Port Credit and played a place called the New Port Hotel. In 2001 Squelchtone and Ugly Pop teamed up to release a single of long forgotten recordings. Over the past few months, the drummer Ross Johnson has been in touch with us and Dean Stilles of the band and the agreed to do an interview. This was recorded a couple of weeks back for tonight's program. Most of the songs have been recovered from original recordings spanning 1979 through to 1981.

I followed that up with some noisier contemporary garage. And D'Arcy pulled together two sets of hardcore with sounds that have been inspiring him.
