====== Officer Down ======

Punk Rock\\
Steinbach, Manitoba, Canada

"These guys were from Steinbach. They had these incredibly melodic parts on their hardcore, something I can’t seem to pin point in any other band.

The band formed in 1997 and recorded a demo, which was already well talked about. They were contacted by Goodfellow Records, which would be the labels very first release, a split 7" with Puritan in 1997. Later that year they also appeared on the labels compilation //The Difference Between Us//. The song would also appear on the bands only album //Subversive Paradigm//. A total masterpiece.

They were set to record an ep in late 1999, but I don’t think they got that far.

Steve Dueck and John Paul Peters went on to form [[The Undecided]]."
