from Riff Worship Hosted by Austin Paulson, Dylan Adams, and Justin Swindle
This week on Riff Worship, we’re diving into the comprehensive history of Washington D.C.’s Majority Rule! From skateboarding and high school Driver’s Ed to their final release, Emergency Numbers, we’ll explore the lineage of one of hardcore's most abrasive and dynamic trios. In this episode, we discuss: Their first basement demo and early split 7-inches with Positive State, Turbine, and The Blackout Terror. Majority Rule’s transition into a three-piece, with Matt Michel and Kevin Lamiell stepping up to the microphone. The making of their landmark debut album, Interviews With David Frost, alongside producer Brian McTernan. An in-depth breakdown of Emergency Numbers including working with Jim Siegel at The Outpost, Matt Michel’s iconic photography layout, and a guitar/bass gear rundown. Why the band gracefully parted ways in 2004, their impactful reunion tours with Pg.99 and City of Caterpillar, and how those shows birthed their current project, NØ MAN!
