If you want to skank your ass off…this is for you!
Against All Authority started skating first. Joe Koontz (guitar) and Danny Lore (Tim Coats) met through a mutual friend and original drummer Milan Aguero. Talking about starting a band somewhere between the Subhumans and Operation Ivy. After Hurricane Andrew destroyed everyone’s’ homes there was no electricity for months so they all would hang out and write acoustic songs at Danny’s house in the Redlands. Adding ska elements, they helped connect the ska-punk scene with the values of punk and hardcore bands that came before them.
For the first time in fifteen years, Against All Authority’s seminal ska-punk classic album is available on limited edition vinyl, just in time for the 25th anniversary of the album that defined their style and place in the ska-punk world. Punknews called it “One of the best records to skate to” and with songs like “Sk8 Rock” and “Justification” – it lives up to that hype. Having toured with bands like Hot Water Music, Alkaline Trio, and Less Than Jake, Against All Authority is celebrating the 25th anniversary of All Fall Down with anniversary shows in their hometown of Ft. Lauderdale, FL and main stage slots at The FEST 21 in Gainesville and Punk Rock Bowling Festival in Las Vegas.
