Spit On Your Grave - 2006 Demo

Spit On Your Grave was a rather overlooked Baltimore band despite coming from a great lineage of bands such as Fighting Chance, Queen Anne's Revenge, Hell To Pay, etc. After the breakup of Fighting Chance, 4 of the remaining members formed Spit On Your Grave (or Suck Off Your Grandpa, or any other possible offensive name they could shoehorn into SOYG...). While much of Fighting Chance's music was skinhead oriented Oi!/streetrock with ever increasing punk/hardcore additions, Spit On Your Grave came out swinging with a full tilt hardcore sound with comparisons ranging everywhere from Warzone and early Madball to Crumbsuckers and Gut Instinct.

Though coming directly from a big name band can be beneficial, this also meant SOYG was forced to start over from the beginning, and in my opinion, never quite reached the attention grabbing status of Fighting Chance by the time they broke up, which is a shame. What's more is the band only managed 2 released demos and a shirt or two, severely limiting the evidence of their existence until some nerd comes along and digs them up 10 years from now ala such painfully overlooked bands as Show Of Force and Our Gang. According to bassist Tim, there is a large handful of unreleased high quality recorded tracks meant for a 7" or album sitting around, hopefully these will see the light of day very soon.
