UN PEU D'HISTOIRE
“It was kind of a hard pill to swallow when we realized that ‘the scene’ we participated in - Eric and Murray and I spent most of our lives going to shows and being punk rock. At least a good fifteen years now and I would have never guessed that it would be so marketable. ‘Punk’ (for lack of better terms) has become easy and pop culture. You can find it in the malls and parents think it is a safe alternative. Football players warm up to ‘punk’ songs to get psyched up before a game and every teen movie have a ‘punk’ band in the soundtrack. This is not what I grew up with. I believe there is still an underground subculture, but this can't be it. You cannot have a subculture unless you have a culture to begin with and it seems like ‘punk’ is the culture. I guess I feel kind of strongly about keeping punk underground, but not as a secret society.” – Bryon Lippincott (Kiss of Death Records / New Bruises), mai 2006
