show please contact us. Tour dates and stops and such will be
coming soon.
12.12.06:
Long time no update. Well we're writing new material
for a release next year. Also plans of touring next year. We're
toying with the idea of going to Japan, so if anyone can help
us with that it would be great.
Also
the mini tour in August was alot of fun. Thanks in no particuliar
order to:
Rich and
all of Conflict Resolution, Line of Fire, Skrappys, The Phix,
Bacon Kitty, Amys Closet, Stiv Kitty, All the Phx kids who didnt

No
thanks and fuck you to:
AZ highway
patrol and giving speeding tickets when no ones on the road,
Jumping Turtle Promoter - who didnt do a fucking bit of promotion,
had someone else set up the show, and then split without paying
any of the bands or saying why he didnt have any money for the
bands (coward)
7.19.06:
More news. Just added a show
at The
Zombie Lounge on Aug 21st to kick off our mini
tour, welcome Sean back into town, and give all our bitchy complaining
bar friends/fans a chance to see us. With DJ's Wendy and Danimal
playing Punk, HC, and Thrash. Should be alot
of fun for a Monday.
6.24.06:
Finally news! The only Life
Crisis shows in 06 are now booked for late August.
Sean is now entrenched in Tennessee and Adam has recruited new
musicians in San Diego, along with Mike Crisis back on guitar
for as long as he wants to be involved. Our good friend Rob
Logic is now on 2nd guitar as well. Plans for the future include
writing/recording a full length and extensive touring in 2007.
We'll never die until old age kills us. Anyways, come on out
to the shows in August.
12.28.05:
Last West Coast Life Crisis
show in probably 10 months is coming up on New Years. Sean is
moving to Tennessee in Feb. and will be recruiting new members
out there. Adam will be staying in San Diego for the time being
but will be flying out to Tennessee for recording and touring.
So we're far from finished, just more or less relocating. Thanks
to everyone who has helped us around San Diego, Vegas, Phoenix,
Tucson, and LA these past few years. We love ya and we'll be
back.
12.08.05:
Seans moving to Tennesse soon, so you only have one
more chance to see us live. We're playing a pretty cool New
Years Eve party. We're still planning on touring
and recording in the future...we'll just have more distance
between ourselves. So come on out if you give a shit San Diego.
This will also probably be Mikes last show, as he is retiring.
12.07.05:
New song recorded for an upcoming tribute comp for
Negative FX. I think its on our Myspace
page.
12.06.05:
Long time no update. Tour went really well and we have
alot of people to thank for that. In no apparant order
- Damon and Lee, Mike and everyone at the 15th St Tavern in
Denver, Johnny O, Mark, Jorge and his lovely wife, Jonny Christ
as always wonderful, Dave, Al, Mikey, and Ron for putting up
with our usual bullshit on the road. All the kids who stormed
the Bluebird security in Denver, Erica Wino...the best merch
girl ever, Bruce TPR, Los Sobrios Emputados, All Systems Fail,
MDC, Ernie November Records in Cheyenne, Chuck the maniac who
drove 6 hours to see us, 25 cent softserve ice cream cones,
Carvis, and anyone who came out to see us and bought merch.
09.22.05:
We're sad to announce the death of local San Diego
show promoter Dave
Raynes this past week. Dave was a way cool guy and did alot
for the local punk scene and for us as a band. He was just getting
a new venue up and running and it was just what this area needed.
He'll be missed. A benefit show for Daves family and for the
victims of Hurricane Katrina will be on Sunday Sept 25th at
The Royal Palace - 1340 Broadway El Cajon. Bands playing are
Media Lab, Accident experiment, 3 against one, Slewfoot, Iron
maidens, Plus more. 2PM All ages/21&+ w/ID.
09.21.05:
A few more shows added. Looks like we'll be headed to TJ in
October and back up to the Bay Area in November, check shows
page for details. Also our new 7" should be here in a few
days. Arizona this weekend looks like it'll be a blast. Thanks
to all who are helping us play all over. We hope we're worth
it.
09.03-05:
We're finished with our new recording and the album
should be out in time for our mini-tour with MDC
in Oct. There are two new songs up in our Noise
section. Hope you guys like the new stuff. Tucson and Phoenix
shows are coming up on the 23rd and 24th of this month. Arizona
has always been good to us so we're looking forward to it. Also
added are Oct 22nd in San Marcos with Cheap Sex and a show in
L.A. with the Regulations on Nov 16th.
08.05.05:
So today we're heading into the studio to record for
our upcoming 7" on Deep
Six Records. It should be due out around October. If you
like our stuff then you'll like these new songs. We'll break
up before we get shitty.
07.25.05:
Just got in from 3 days with Asshole
Parade up the west coast, god damn those guys can party!
Ithink we got about 3 hours sleep outta 72. The san diego show
was the best, thanks for everyone who came out and turned that
bar upside down. All 4 bands tore it up just like i knew they
would. The next night at gilman only about 70 kids showed up,
But i would like to say a BIG thank you to those 70, you guys
were awesome and we had a great time. I think with LOI and Haymaker
cancelling, not enough people found out in time that AP and
LC were even playing that night. Thanks to all who took care
of us while we were up there as well as REPROACH/COUGHING UP
BLOOD/CRIME DESIRE. it was another great line-up the whole way
thru. So then after no sleep we drove back to LA and the van
broke down on the grapevine, we were bummed cause we'd looked
forward to the Socal Fest for months now, but we managed to
get the van going again and get there in time so we were stoked
again. We were there about 2 hours only to have the show shut
down by the cops right before we were both getting ready to
play for a packed house. If what they (cops) said is true, then
the kids throwing bottles at cars should fucking die. Whatta
fuckin drag- thx to all the people who came out to see us and
bought our march all 3 nights and BIG thanks to GIL from RUIDO
and BOB at DEEP
SIX RECORDS for settin up that fest even though we didn't
get to play, next time.
07.23.05:
Fuck, last nights show was so good. I've never seen
Scolaris get that crazy before. What a good fucking time. All
the bands tore it up and the crowd was fucking rocking. Its
even worth this really fucked hangover I have this morning.
Anyways, thanks to Funeral
Shock and Kenny for putting it all together. Thanks
to Coaccion
for tearing it up, and definatly thanks to Asshole
Parade. Check out all these bands.
07.18.05:
Lots of updates to give. We have a fucking rad weekend of shows
coming up this next weekend. Scolari's Friday night, Gilman
Saturday night, and then Sunday at the SoCal Hardcore fest in
El Monte. Each night we're playing with great fucking bands,
Check the shows section
for more info.
We go back into the studio in early August to record for a split
7" with Star
Strangled Bastards on Deep
Six Records. That release is scheduled for Late
Sept/Early Oct. Just in time for our mini-tour with MDC
in Oct. We also have a weekend in September playing in Arizona.
We play at Skrappys in Tucson on Friday Sept 23rd and then near
Phoenix on Saturday Sept 24th for Rezfest...a benefit for Native
Americans rights with alot of killer bands. Once again, check
out the shows section
for all the information.
04.20.05:
We wanna make sure that Erica Wino knows how much we appreciate
her help on this micro-tour. Erica, thank you very much! and
we love you!
04.18.05: Hey everyone, we're back from our
southwest tour w/ MDC! It was a blast! Thanks to everyone who
came out to see us. MDC & co. were so nice. They even brought
us up to play a few songs in the middle of their set in yuma
after our set got cut short cause a bunch of bands before us
played too long. I'll post more details 'bout the tour later.
03.21.05: The San Diego M.D.C. show has been
moved to The Vinyard! (see Shows for details)
02.26.05: Another cool "Unpeaceful Protest"
review! This one from Daniel over at DeepFryBonanza.com: "Also
in the package with the brilliant Christian Club record I reviewed
a few days ago was this EP from their fellow San Diegoans (is
that a word?) Life Crisis. However, whereas Christian Club were
doing the heavy, midwest hardcore-inspired thing, Life Crisis
are straight-up blitzkrieg thrash a la early Corrosion of Conformity,
MDC and DRI. Yeah, there's a slight hint of crossover, but this
isn't about riffs; it's about pure, exhiliarating speed, and
Life Crisis are faster and tighter than just about any non-grindcore
band out there right now. Like the Christian Club EP, I just
love the production on this 7". The title track sounds
like it's about to rip a hole through my speakers; it's so clear,
tight and powerful that I'm convinced whoever is responsible
for getting this sound should travel around and teach seminars
to local hardcore bands about what their records should sound
like. If you like the production on COC's Six Songs with Mike
Singing you'll almost certainly agree that this thing is a sure-fire
ripper. It isn't just production that makes this band, though.
These songs are just wild, keeping you on your toes with little
breakdowns and fills in all the right places. While 90% of the
bands out there who attempt to play fast hardcore just end up
sounding generic, Life Crisis are constructing perfectly-crafted
hardcore songs that hit you right in the gut where this music
should. If you haven't done so already, get your ass over to
the Get Revenge! web site and order this and the Christian Club
EP. Both are limited to only 500 copies so act fast now, as
there's no doubt in my mind that music this great will eventually
catch on and you'll be kicking yourself for reading this review
and not checking out these bands when I told you about them."
02.14.05: FUCK! we're goin' on the road with
M.D.C.! see shows for more details.
01.22.05b: check out the review of "Unpeaceful
Protest" by Scott J over at BystanderFanzine.com: "Holy
shit, this has a touch of Black Flag and Circle Jerks, but vocally
reminds me of D.R.I.. Yes, this is thrash in its purest form.
The vocals rule, they are all over the place. The guitars sound
excellent, that thin Marshal sound that is so needed in this
style of hardcore. Everything is hectic and teetering on the
edge of a nervous break down. This is something I would have
loved when I was a kid. There are parts that oddly remind me
of early Murphy’s Law, maybe it’s because this record
is so much fun. I want to blast a tape of this out of a grey
boom box while skating an empty pool in a ripped up C.O.C. shirt.
If you get the last sentence then you need to buy this record.
If not, well you still need to buy this along with some C.O.C.,
D.R.I. and Cryptic Slaughter LP’s."
01.22.05a: We had a blast playing this last
weekend. Both shows were rocking and all the bands kicked ass.
Thanks to all the bands, DSC, Conflict Resolution, BYOW, Howitzer,
Line of Fire, and Severe Tire Damage. You guys went way out
of your way to help us out and its way appreciated. Thanks to
Sid and Otis for letting us play. Thanks to all the kids who
came out to The Morgue and Jugheads. And Rich from CR who is
perhaps the coolest guy ever. All of us are now willing to blow
him. Anyways, any of the bands who are interested in playing
out here in SD, shoot us an email and we'll do our best to repay
the hospitality. thanks again! -adam
12.05.04: check out Sean's new label/distro,
Get Revenge! Records.
11.30.04: ok, i got the Unpeaceful Protest
7" & CDEP up on our merch page. you can use paypal
for fast shipment or send concealed cash, check or money order
via snail mail. locally (san diego county) you can pick it up
at Off The Record & Lou's Records.
11.14.04: yeah yeah, i know...we suck at updating
this site. but to tell you the truth, we get alot more action
on our MySpace site. I hope that's cool with all of you, 'cause
i know that i didn't like MySpace at first, but thought i should
go ahead and make a profile if it might help to promote the
band...i'm sure glad we did. it's an excellent way to meet other
people like ourselves! Anyway, we released our new 7",
Unpeacful Protest, back on October 12th at the Disclose / No
Fucker show. IT FUCKING KICKS ASS! i should probably be more
modest, but i cant help it. we are also making a nicely packaged
CD-R version available for those of you who don't know what
a record is. we're sharing the whole thing in the "Noise"
section. well, the only thing i can think to say now is that
we've written enough songs in the last few weeks for another
7", but we can't decide if we wanna do a full-length next
or not. but if we keep writing at this rate, we might as well.
ok bye. -mike
08.15.04: alrighty, the recording is done and
it sounds fukin great! as most of you know, our music is always
available for free on our site. but for now i'm only gonna put
up one song off the "Unpeaceful Protest" E.P. 'till
the 7" or split CD is realeased...only to make it more
eventful. -mike
08.09.04b: hey kids, we need some help. other
than record stores and the venue the show is gonna be at...we
don't know where to flyer, not to mention we all work 40 hours
a week n' don't have a lot of time. so hear's the deal, we need
people like you to pass out or stock flyers at places you feel
punks would frequent. of course we would kick down free merch,
shows or whatever to you for helping us out. if you are interested
or just know of a good place to flyer. get ahold of us through
our "contact" page. thanks alot. -mike
08.09.04a: oh man, our recording date is only
2 days away. and believe it or not, i'm sorta nervous. the main
reason is i haven't recorded as the only guitarist in a band
in 15 years. the last time was with RMSD back in 1990. in The
O.C. Bombers, Eric played 2nd guitar. and as most of you know,
Life Crisis' first two recordings ("Live @ Brick by Brick"
& the Vigilante Justice" demo) had Mike Esrtada on
2nd guitar. but anyway, we are recording at Doubletime Studios
with Jeff Forest and we're gonna keep it as raw as possible...NO
LAYERED GUITARS, 'cause we want it to represent what we sound
like live (shitty, haha). i/we hate it when a band does overdubs
that they cant do live. but all that being said, i am still
worried about the recording not sounding "full" enough.
live isn't that big of a deal 'cause you have the room adding
a natural ambiance/reverb. but i guess i'll leave it up to Jeff
to figure out. WISH US LUCK! -mike
08.01.04: i had a really good time at the alibi
last night. i love the guys in the band & all our beautiful
friends! -mike
07.23.04: just added an mp3 for Unpersons so
you get a sample of what they're like.
07.20.04: ok, less than two weeks after breaking
my arm...we're back! check the shows section.
07.10.04: i broke my fucking arm at work! everything
is postponed indefinitely :-( mike.
07.07.04: just added mp3s for Tomorrow &
Muga so you get a sample of what they're like.
07.05.04: hey, thanks to all that came out
to the show on saturday. Star Strangled Bastards & The Back
Up Plan tore it up! as it turns out, so called "Breathe
In" ended up being only one guy from the band and his friend
on drums playing some hippy/garage shit that did not fit in
with the "hardcore chaos" theme. so we made 'em play
last so they wouldn't fuck up the flow. but thanks to 4/5 of
Christian Club (who also kicked ass) for filling the gap "breathe
in" left. full on bait & switch!
06.23.04: new show just added - "aichi
prefecture invasion vol. 2" w/ Tomorrow (japan), Muga (japan),
Bumbklaatt and Coaccion. tues, july 20 at the che!
06.19.04: ok guys we just confirmed the 4th
band for our july 3rd show at chaser's.......THE FUCKING STAR
STRANGLED BASTARDS! if you have not seen this band you have
to go. probably the loudest band in socal. punishing power-violence,
hardcore like bumbklaatt or from ashes arise. this is a great
line-up all 4 bands absolutely tear it up. it's free and it's
on saturday, so no excuses.......
help us start something good at chaser's. i'm gonna try to book
at least one saturday a month there with no mixed genres. it
will be hardcore and 80's punk only for a change. the actual
order of the line-up is uncertain, so please get there early
9:00-9:30 to make sure you dont miss any of the action. this
is 21+ show. we tried to get this all ages but everywhere was
already booked and we dont have the cash to rent out a hall.
BTW, if you haven't heard the Moose Lodge is now closed to punk
shows because of noise complaints....oh well, fun while it lasted
i guess. skeptic-
06.14.04: just added mp3s for Breathe In &
The Backup Plan so you get a sample of what they're like.
06.14.04: new show added today! we'll be playing
with oakland's Breathe In & from new york city, The Backup
Plan! at Chasers on saturday, july 3rd. come on out n drink
some cheap beer with us!
06.13.04: well that show on the 10th ended
up not being a part of bearpaw's BME, but the next night he
asked to fill a slot at the moose lodge w/ The Makeout Boys.
you guys be sure to check that place out. the drinks are cheap
and Donny (of Scolari's fame) works the bar! and some shows
are all-ages w/ bar!
06.11.04: woah! that shit was crazy last night,
who was the naked dude? and was that part of bearpaw's BME (best
month ever)? i have no idea i was way too drunk.....anyway to
all, thanks for comin. for those of you lazy fucks who stayed
home so you could cry about having to work on friday, you missed
the news and a cover?! yep Life Crisis actually played a cover
song!!!
2 weeks ago we were asked to be on an Agression tribute LP/CD
that is to be released later this year. to which we all said
"of fucking course we'll do it!" we are doing "rich
kids", which was our 2nd choice only to Rat Race (JxFxAx-
is doin' that one, who the fuck do they think they are?). anyway
hopefully people won't say we ruined a classic, last night everybody
seemed to like it. original version is like 1:45, our version
is a bit faster at 0:52 seconds and man does it kick ass! so
i'm braggin' on my own band, F.U.
other bands on the tribute include:
Kat Killer - Intense Energy, Locals Only
JxFxAx - Rat Race
Midnight Bombers - TBA
McRad - TBA
Free Beer - TBA
Decry - TBA
Handy With Shovels - Body Count
Youth Brigade - TBA
Oppressed Logic - TBA
Jackass - TBA
Aggro - Don't Be Mistaken
xDxIx - TBA
Battalion of Saints - TBA
Jelly van Roll/ Lil Rob - Dear John Letter
Hollywood Hate - TBA
that's all for now, come see us play july 10th at the alibi
w/ The Eddie Haskells!
skeptic-
06.04.04: OK, first off, once again we have
been neglecting the site. but we will try to start giving band
updates at least once a week just to let you know whats going
on and so you have something new to read.
we've been backing off on shows lately and working hard for
our upcoming (all new) 6 song ep. we are going to doubletime
studios to record on July 18 and hope to have it pressed and
available by sometime late august. we've been talking with a
couple different labels, but in the end have just decided to
self release this first ep. it will be of course available here
on the site and a couple online distro's have already said they
would carry it as well. anyone that can help us further with
distribution, please let us know....
21+ be sure and come by next Chasers next thursday (June 10th)
for a show with the attacks and 2 bands??? from outta town.
this is our only bar show until July 31st (which will be at
the Ken Club). we will be opening because i'm old and need my
rest. should start around 9-9:30pm. we will be playing all 6
of our new songs + something special that we will announce that
night. oh ya, and it's free!
ALL AGES im sure i don't have to tell you that No Hope For The
Kids (Denmark) are one of the best old school bands around right
now and we will be opening for them Sat. July 10th at the che
cafe. DO NOT MISS THIS SHOW!!! NHFTK features ex-members of
A.P.A., which was one of, if not THE best old school punk band
since old school was just called hardcore. i think the only
other thing somewhat planned is another house party at evol
lauren's house sometime in August.
after july 18th, we will probably begin booking more shows again.
and as always if you want or need us to play, just drop us an
email. we will usually play anything, anytime,anywhere. disclaimer:
by anything, i mean any punk shows. p.s.- thanks to all who
showed up last minute for the Life Crisis / Major Threat Show
last week. it happened so fast we didn't really have time to
even tell anyone. great turnout anyway. thanks for having us
dave-
skeptic-
06.03.04: come out and see us at Chasers next
thursday! FREE bar show!
04.08.04: for the old punks - we will be at
joe and andy's in la mesa friday night (la mesa blvd? the old
part) with WNP and Society's Victim. Not for sure if we are
playing yet but we will all be there for sure and more than
likely play. come out crusty old punks and drink with us. For
the young punks - che cafe sat. night for the Shitgiveits cd
release show. we're playing 3rd, but it's an early show (6:30)
so show up early and see the big brawl that is rumored to happen.
broken knee caps n' shit. skeptic-
03.21.04: sorry for the few and far in between
news. we have all just been busy the last few months...
this past thursday.....
mike estrada decided to throw in the towel as he has way too
much goin on right now and he felt that he could not devote
enough time to the band. you and your rockstar poses will be
missed mike....
friday night we drove to pheonix with christian club to play
at jugheads with a bunch of local bands. The opening band decided
to do the bait and switch by saying thier guiarist was not at
the club yet, so the touring bands got to play first and second!
hooray! anyway, we made the best of it, both bands tore it up,
but most people were more interested in playing pool.
Ted from CC went a little crazy throwing beers and chairs when
the owner decided to give us $35 per band, which was shitty
of the owner to do, but live and learn.
i was telling the guitarist in family secret (who played that
night), that i thought i was kinda shitty for the local bands
to take money because in SD we always gladly give the touring
bands all the cash if there's not enough to go around. he simply
said that "this isn't san diego, this is phoenix",
and that i'm lucky i didn't have to pay to play. haha...whatever,
i'm rick james bitch. Anyways i don't think we'll be playing
with that band or venue anymore.
we hooked up with the guys from B.Y.O.W., who are hella cool
guys that we played in vegas with last summer and they assured
us that the AZ scene
was great and that next time they would get us on a good line-up
and venue. thanks for everyone out there that did show up, caused
a ruckus, bought us booze and bought our merch(especially the
guy that kicked down $17 for the shirt and cd, when the price
was only $8). we appreciate the support and we hope to be back
there soon. also thanks to 80-D, you guys kick ass and hopefully
we can get on the next show together.
on to saturday.....
we drove back thru hell, got a couple hours sleep and then headed
straight down to scolari's where we were playing w/ an opening
band (that i didn't catch the name, sorry), bumbklaatt and the
sub-horses(final show). wow what a turn around from the previous
night! packed house, hella fun, all 3 bands tore it up last
night. thanks to davey for asking us to play, we had a great
time.
thanks to scolari's for the cash and all the free booze. and
a big thanks to all the people who showed and gave us all the
great feedback afterwards, we really appreciate all the praise.
so much that all 3 of us, who were kinda gettin' a little down
on LC just a week ago, are more into the band now than ever
before.
people talk alot of shit about the SD scene, including myself,
but SD has alot of great punks out here and think it will continue
to get better and better.
che kids! go start a band today!
next friday 03.26.04 at the che: c'mon out for a great night
of HC with the skulls(LA),
the star strangled bastards(san clemente),LC, christian club(come
see me massacre the drums) and the wrecking crew.
should be another packed house and a fun time. a/a 7pm - $4
w/a can of food or $6 at the door. talk soon, skeptic-

just FYI, we finally held on to a drummer long enough to record,
so this Sunday the 21st we are goin in to record our first real
release. It won't take us long and should have cd-r's available
within a week or two. it will be pressed on cd and hopefully
at least one ep (possibly a split w/ the cadaverdogs) in the
near future. Since we all neglect on this site, the best way
to get our attention is too email us at lifecrisis_sd@hotmail.com.

turned out to be pretty fun. This was the first time we ever
played outside, so we were trippin' on the sound as we were
playin', but everyone said it sounded fine. And after viewing
the video, i agree. Fuckin' Tim was totally fucked up! to the
point where he couldn't even talk! Some guy gave him a shot
that put him over the edge right before we played, but amazingly
he was able to get through the set...good job Tim!

tight even though they were fucked up! The vocalist was spewing
puke everywhere! We got it on video!....Good Time!!!!
