Nausea - Punk Terrorist Anthology Vol. 1

Uh. Nausea was a crust punk band, a really influential one at that. If you don't already know that... I'm a little ashamed to be in your e-presence.

Another Terrorist Organization - For Terrorists in Training

Another Terrorist Organization(RIP), or ATO as I knew them as were a vegan, bike punk, environmentalist, anti-sexist, class-war, crustcore band with a lot of lyrical criticism on the "punk" scene in the area and body image and stuff like that. Equipped with some pretty metalized yet groovy drum parts, male/female vocals, fast hardcore riffs, and a clear stance on things this band was the hot shit too me when I was 15. And they are still pretty fucking awesome 4 1/2 years later.

A manifesto and explanation of their name from their myspace(this was also in the insert in this album):

""in february of 2003 a new bill was introduced to legislature, ‘the animal and ecological terrorism act’. the act was created by the american legislative exchange council (the a.l.e.c. has corporate sponsors such as phillip morris, enron and several major oil companies) and is intended for use in all u.s. states. the act criminalizes virtually all forms of environmental and animal-rights advocacy. this act was so well received in texas that it was adopted in new york a month later. mississippi, wisconsin and washington are now showing interest. anyone could be considered a terrorist if they were to participate in any legitimate peaceful protest, civil disobedience, demonstration or debate towards environmental or animal welfare. similarly, giving money or contributing in any form to these ‘terrorist cells’ would be punishable. the act also sets up a state run website that is similar to that of sex offenders, where eco-terrorists and animal-rights activists would have to supply their name, address and current photo for three years. and finally, no journalist would be allowed into any facility to photograph or record and information to be used to defame the facility in any way, so all those dirty little companies out there will now be safe behind their big walls and barbed wire fences. the majority of our band do not eat animals. the majority of our band, have taken, or are willing to take to the streets in support of that which cannot represent itself. animals have no say. they have become expendable bio-machines. the earth has no say. it is here for us to use and abuse for profit and comfort. is this what humanity has come down to, profit over everything else? it is illogical that is not our way. we are terrorists. and this is another terrorist organization."


"For Terrorists in Training" was a very DIY CD-R demo that they put out at some of their shows back in like 2003-4? They were like "Hey, If you have like 1 or 2 dollars or whatever that'll be cool". And it was pretty cool, too bad these guys broke up. They were like my first taste of DIY anarcho-punk stuff and had a pretty big influence to me.

"Tacoma: Pitch Pipe Infoshop Under Surveillance

Friday, July 11 2008 @ 01:06 AM CDT

Police State

The residents of the Pitch Pipe Infoshop recently became aware of the existence of a hidden surveillance camera attached to a utility pole across from their house. The camera is hidden inside a box which is meant to resemble a standard electrical box. There are no other boxes like this on any of the utility poles in the immediate area. As the below picture shows, there is clearly a "camera-resembling-object" resting behind the transparent surface at the base of the box.

For Immediate Release:

The residents of the Pitch Pipe Infoshop recently became aware of the existence of a hidden surveillance camera attached to a utility pole across from their house. The camera is hidden inside a box which is meant to resemble a standard electrical box. There are no other boxes like this on any of the utility poles in the immediate area. As the below picture shows, there is clearly a "camera-resembling-object" resting behind the transparent surface at the base of the box.



The camera directly faces the Pitch Pipe Infoshop.



It has a clear view of the room at the top of the house.



This development does not surprise anyone at the Infoshop. In the past, the Tacoma Police Department has called its residents a homeland security threat. In the past, residents have spotted and chased away under-cover 'law enforcement' staking out the house. This development does make the residents angry, however. These photos are being released so that others may know what to look for and so that others can clearly see what the government (local or otherwise) is doing to all who vocally express their anger at the current state of things.

It is uncertain which law enforcement agency is behind this camera. This camera exists, though, as you can clearly see. Perhaps this camera has seen the residents of the Infoshop playing with the neighbors children or having picnics with the family next door. Perhaps it has seen the residents organizing a show in the neighborhood park in which families and children from across the neighborhood attended during a beautiful, sunny day. Perhaps, maybe, the camera has seen the residents acting like everyone in the neighborhood acts: like humans.

The residents of the Pitch Pipe Infoshop are not criminals and they are not terrorists, no matter what the government may try to say. They are normal people, leading normal lives. They are interacting with their community and have the support of that community. They are wonderful people who leave the door open to anyone who wishes to come in ('law enforcement' excluded).

A rose from the Pitch Pipe yard.


Spread this information as widely as possible. If you choose to ignore this information, you are turning a blind eye to the constantly encroaching totalitarianism of this government. What is being reported can be independently verified by driving to the corner of 7th and MLK Jr. Way in Tacoma and walking to the alley in between MLK Jr. Way and L Street. The camera is fastened to the utility pole at the entrance to the alley (the alley ends at 7th).

Keep fighting the good fight and do not let them scare you. They have nothing on anyone and are doing these things because of one thing: fear. Fear of the population they have abused for far too long.
