-Dave “Burrito” Villalpando (formerly of [[GVA]] [[Conviction of Sin]], [[Moral Majority]], and [[Public Confession]] formed The Warning in 1983. In 1985, Burrito met future Dio guitarist Tracey "Tracy G" Grijalva. Burrito was a bouncer for a local promoter and Tracy G was playing for a band called Swift Kick. Tracy G was known for being a Christian that played in non-Christian bands, so he got a lot of backlash for that. Burrito decided to tell Tracy G how he supported his approach to being a Christian in non-Christian bands, and this began a musical partnership between the two. Part of that partnership included working on [[Conviction of Sin]]'s recordings, but it manly consisted of Tracy G joining The Warning. In 1996, the band changed names to [[8-Ball Cholos]].+Dave “Burrito” Villalpando (formerly of [[GVA]] [[Conviction of Sin]], [[Moral Majority]], and [[Public Confession]]formed The Warning in 1983.

The band felt it would have been hard to re-create the recordings in a live setting.

 +In 1989Burrito moved to the eastern U.S., but kept in touch with Tracy G. In 1996, they recorded an album for The Warning that Burrito felt was so controversial that they needed to change names.

 "This cassette-only release was too in your face for most CCM airplay and was even banned by some gospel bookstores until its Yambar designed cover art was redesigned to read, Cut The Garbage. Even after the alteration, some southern states refused to carry or display the cassette at all. There were actual reports of some stores keeping the tape behind the counter and selling it without any cover art sleeve at all. This gave the band immediate international cult status, and the tape became a must-have item. Many critics have called this project the most cutting edge moment in 1980s independent Christian music. They may be right. The cassette art was matched with an oversized promotional poster/newsletter designed by Yambar and some stickers of the cover art produced by the band." "This cassette-only release was too in your face for most CCM airplay and was even banned by some gospel bookstores until its Yambar designed cover art was redesigned to read, Cut The Garbage.
