Screw 32

Screw 32 is the name of a band derived from an anti-skateboarding measure on the ballots in Concord, California. This band came from the Bay area of California and was noted for self-publicity. For example, they ordered stickers by the thousands and stuck them in numerous places. They were also known to "tag" their name with sharpies on numerous objects and in numerous places; the results of which have been seen in places all over the country. Most of these incidents are apparently done without permission. These stickers have also been seen on bumpers of police cars all over the Bay Area. The band's vocalist is Andrew Champion, who went on to a variety of bands like HOPELIFTER, END OF THE WORLD, SHADOWBOXER and HIGHWIRE DAYS! Guitarist Doug Sangalang went on to the bands LIMP, ONE TIME ANGELS and JACKSON UNITED. Bass player Jimi Cheetah went on to the bands TILT and NOTHING COOL, as well as running CHEETAH'S RECORDS. Guitarist Grant McIntire and drummer Mark Mortenson went on to a brief stint in ME FIRST AND THE GIMME GIMMES. Mark Mortenson also played in the bands GRINCH and SAMIAM. Grant McIntire also played in the bands Dance Hall Crashers and the straight-edge band Unit Pride. Screw 32's music has been likened to Bouncing Souls, AFI, and Loose Change.
