G.r.r.! - Green Room Radio

Throughout our run of Green Room Radio, we've talked with some of Hardcore's greats about their music, and what life is like on the road touring. Much like the Ain't Rights in the movie Green Room, driving from show to show playing gigs is not without its bumps. From Mike Judge facing a nazi riot in Florida to Keith Morris's encounter with the Wall of Death of in New Jersey, we've heard gnarly stories of gigs gone bad. For our 10th and final episode of Green Room Radio, we'll revisit these some of these moments as well as play the songs that these musicians helped create.

Walter Schreifels and Arthur Smilios are most well known for being founding members of the late 80’s NYHC band Gorilla Biscuits, but that is just the tip of the iceberg in regards to their musical histories. While in Gorilla Biscuits, Walter was also in Youth of Today and Warzone. As the 90’s crept in, he formed Quicksand with members of other NYHC bands such as Beyond, Burn and Collapse and along with Into Another and Orange 9mm forged a ‘post-core’ scene within the early part of the decade. In the 2000’s, Schreifels had the bands Rival Schools and Walking Concert. Working from the same pool of musicians he knew from the NYHC scene, these bands featured members of Youth of Today and Bold. Walter’s current bands include the psychedelic rock band Dead Heavens and Vanishing Life, a band also featuring members of Rise Against and ..And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead. Arthur Smilios was a member of the NYHC bands Token Entry and Underdog as well as Gorilla Biscuits. He was a member of CIV in the 90’s
