More on Ten Yard Fight
Description from Wikipedia:
Ten Yard Fight was a straight edge, football-based band from Boston, Massachusetts. Along with In My Eyes and Floorpunch, they spearheaded the youth crew revival in 1997. Bassist, Brian "Clevo" Ristau, went on to play in Boston's Stop and Think. Vocalist, Anthony "Wrench" Moreschi, went on to front Stand & Fight on Bridge 9 Records, and currently sings in Resist featuring members from DrugxTest and Since the Flood. Ten Yard Fight's last show was in October 2000 in Haverhill, Mass for National Edge Day, which they played in its inception in 1999.
Ten Yard Fight was formed in the summer of 1995 with the intention of reviving eighties-style posi-core. TYF reinvigorated the stiff and nearly forgotten genre of fast-paced, upbeat, singalong straight-edge hardcore almost all by themselves. As heralds of what would become the old-school revival movement, they championed not only the drug-free lifestyle, but their hometown in a way reminiscent of scene forerunners Wolfpack, DYS, and SSD or Washington, D.C.'s Minor Threat. The band was originally intended to be little more than a tongue-in-cheek project combining straight-edge philosophy with football jargon. Vocalist Anthony "Wrench" Moreschi had never sung for a band before recording his shouts on Ten Yard Fight's demo, released in 1995 crafted together with notable hardcore producer Brian McTernan. The band played its first show with Moreschi clad in a combination of football gear and punk rock clothing. The crowd response was so enthusiastic that the band decided to become more serious. Ten Yard Fight began performing on the East Coast, igniting a new interest in the old-school style of hardcore.
