New band from D.C.

You know, it's been a while since I got really pumped up about a local band. And thanks to the Livewire Board, I found out about a new band called Protester. (Being a lurker has it's advantages.) Found this little bio about the band for their demo that you can get on Bandcamp along with their 7".

Protester is the straight edge brain child of Connor from Abuse/ Last Words/ Double Negative. Much like bands like Boston Strangler and Violent Reaction, this is a solo project that is now an active band (with members of Coke Bust and Thick Skin). Musically it takes cues from the early 80's Boston crew, as well as the early REV roster.

All this really means to me is that it pretty much kicks ass. Check them out.
