Photo shoot with model I met at the infamous Limelight in New York City.
Look closely, you see her ass sticking out of the phone booth behind me.
She was dating Trent Tenzor at that time.
Our 30 second MTV television Commercial back in 1996 promoting the release of Barakade Vol. 1
Hit that play button!

Great idea for a thread! Post those forgotten demos.
I don't have any video, but I do have an old Demo Cassette from 1995 converted.
The video picture is just the cassette case cover.
Busy song first, then the slow ballad type.

Sorry I let this thread die, but since it's Bandcamp Friday I finally motivated to make my own Bandcamp page! I was disappointed with the sound on Soundcloud, so thinking I'm going to start posting stuff there. Here is the first one:
This was one of the first things I recorded when I came back to music in 2002 after a 7 year break. Got back together with my old compatriots, we had been playing together over the summer so we went in the studio in August before I had to move back to California and then Japan. The performance didn't match my vision for the song, so we recorded over it! Doh! Fortunately we had a couple of rough mixes which is where this recording (short version of the best part and then the complete performance) comes from. I'm playing my first Alembic - a 1985 Spoiler/Exploiter with dead strings direct into the board. The guitarist (Gary Backstrom) and drummer (Greg DeGuglielmo) are on some of the other recordings I've posted - if I'm any good as a bassist a lot of it is due to playing with these two!

A song, from the 4 track EP "Are We Enemies", released on the small independent Danish record label Play/Rec, that I write the lyrics for and helped compose, with the hardcore and noise rock influenced math rock band Menfolk, that I played sort of the "lead" bass in, the band consisting of a drummer, a guitarist/vocalist and 2 bass players, me being one of them, as said sort of having more of a "lead" oriented role, whereas the other bassist mainly filling out a more traditional supporting bass role :
And here's another song from that EP, in fact the title song, where I wrote the sort of hook riff that the guitar starts out with and that I later in the song join in with on bass as well :
Here you can hear everything they released for free, unfortunately I was stupid and left the band (a decision I have since had deep regrets about. Though the band has been disbanded years ago by now, so doesn't really matters much now anyway.) before they recorded their first full length, "Colossus", which, while I did help compose a couple of the songs on it (the bass player who replaced me plays the riffs I came up with for those songs), I don't play on, so it would me be playing the brighter more lead oriented bass on the 2 track single "Double Date" and the 4 track EP "Are We Enemies" :
Menfolk
