Implode 1997 demo

Implode was a New Jersey hardcore band which was formed in 1996 by 2 brothers, Mark & Brian Conforti, who had previously played together in an old school hardcore band called Emotive Drive from the late '80s to the early '90s (Emotive Drive released a 7" on Revelation Time Records in '89). In 1997 Implode recorded and released the demo I ripped here. There were some line-up changes afterwards where Mark would also take over vocal duties, besides playing guitar, and the band would also get a new bass-player. With this new line-up the band would record and self-release a full-length CD in 1999. I do not have that CD unfortunately, so if anybody can hook me up I'd appreciate it. They also appeared on a number of compilations. The band quit in 2002. Mark Conforti would later on be the driving force behind the infamous Guerilla Warfare video fanzines. Members of Implode moved on to bands like Flat Earth Society and Stand Alone.
