Violent Coercion Nixed and Snallygaster at Up The Creek Records

Violent Coercion
Violent Coercion was a band of East Bay teenagers that started playing in 1983. They formed in the time period where the Bay Area had become an epicenter for touring, local and relocated hardcore punk bands and ground zero for thrash metal. All these sounds percolated to make a distinct East Bay hardcore sound. Eventually, 3/4ths of Violent Coercion went on to form legendary post-metal band Neurosis. Violent Coercion finally came back to life in 2020 and has spent the past 5 years reclaiming their crowns in the hardcore scene.https://www.instagram.com/violentcoercion/
