Resent : Collection 1997-1999

Photobucket

Resent was formed in 1997 by Kenny on vocals/guitar (formerly of Zen Bastards & Chronicles Of Hate), Danny on bass, and Kyle on drums (formerly of Nobody).

They recorded their self titled 7"/CDEP that October. It was released in early 1998. They recorded a few tracks later that year (one of which was released on the 'Aftermath' compilation on Profane Existence Records in 1999). A couple of the others were supposed to be on a local comp. that never came together.

Drummer Kyle left the band in early 1999 and was replaced with John (formerly of Insurrection & Clown Nation, among others) and added Howie (formerly of PA hardcore/punk band Half Life and the local One Common Voice) on second guitar. The only thing this lineup recorded was a practice tape (songs 11-15), easily their best material.

After a couple well-attended benefit shows for the Coalition to End Primate Experimentation, the band split after Kenny left. The 3 remaining members went on to play together in the short lived To What End? Danny was later in Demonfilth, Faction Paradox, and Ghidrah. John was later in Chainsaw Sex Vikings, Demonfilth, Faction Paradox, and is currently playing with Orchard Of The Living.

I saw Resent a few times during their short run, and they got better each time. They are still one of my favorite local bands. It was neat to see a band that walked the walk...bringing their subject matter to the table, literally.

They were the only local band I saw with political pamphlets/info and a distro (and one of the few/first to release an actual record). Thanks to Danny for a good chunk of the info/media!

  1. I've got two cassettes from Burnt Eclipse, one with Paul Neff on vocals (live) and the demo with Bobby. Got a buddy who has some more bands, No More Fun or Reagan's Bastard Children.
