the music we play. Reggae, for example, has nothing to do with the culture in whichwere broudrt up but we took that culture and interpreted it our srn $ray.I hate people Just calling us a'reggae band because there ls a lot more than that go

on. Our new songs are mostly funk and soul.i{hy do you play at punk./hardcore clubs?That's our roots. lde ldentlfy wlth that now iust as much as lre did then, the atmosp

I remember always getting bored at shors. I would have I lked to see a band I lke usbecause lt would have been refreshing. The shows got real ly stale.What are the pros and cons of being brothers in a band together?l{e know eachother really well, that's a pro and a con.He kno.r our strengths and weaknesses even more than our close frlends just by virtue

the fact that we grew up in the sane house. tle know a lot of the deep dark secrets.How dld CheSrlre end up playlng wlth you?I worked wlth a friend of hers and I met he'r through hlm. I knew that Dr. Tree was

looklng for a druumer and I found out that she played druns and'I hooked them up. Sithen there has been a cmeradery between the bands.

l{e wanted a percussionlst but she's not the only person who's done it, Chuck Tree hatoo. Ye want to have a permanent percussionist but we don't nol.

An Appreciation or GFar?TIlItleredi th Arno I d

To understand graffiti you need ffitime. The images which appear on wal ls, bridges, and trcars today is a wholly developed form of corununication--expression--and therefore an art form. But graffiil hashistory. Knowledge of this history wi I I enhance theunderstanding of graffiti as art, and even enhance yourpleasure when you see it---,,yeah, yeah,,, you wi ll sty wheyou see some prime example.

The roots of modern graffiti go back forty years to

first FUCK YOu that appeeared on the subway wai t. Thisfol lowed by the image of a big boner and bal ls, which onlrestated the message. This message was aimed at theAmerican square, who at that time was known as the man inthe grey flannel suit. This guy wouid be going to work,glance up, read the i.nsult, then guickly avert his eyes frthe unaughty' message. He tried to train himself noi tolook at graffiti, but was snagged by the graphic profilethe prick. Foi led into taking a furilve glance, he wouldthen feel the pain of lnsult in the baslc meaning of theimage.

In the mean time FUCK y0U,s and boners lrere becomingboring to the artists while the need to insult the sguaresnever went away. Any way, the sguares had trained themselvnot to glance at wall lnscriptions--at least they weretrying. Maybe a qulck peek, but never staring. This issetting that made modern grafflti take off. New forms ofletters which configrured into shapes of words weresubstituted for conventional English. This was theingenious foil, the genius of the art. Now the square woglance furtively at the .writing on the wal l, glance away arealize that he couldn't guite make out what was written,and glance back for a closer look. This was the sting.This was the big FUCX y0U. The poor square not only getsinsulted, as the original rucK you message is perpetually

implied in allwall graffiil, but he gets caught actuallytrying to get insulted.
