In its original form going back to the late 1980s, the band was called Resistant Militia. It combined the arts of punk and metal to incite a new movement that fused dark heavy sounds with the politics of survival. <BR/><BR/>Over the years, founder Anthony Rezhawk’s hauntingly audible growls have been backed by many fleeting members. The current line-up consists of the following musical visionaries.<BR/><BR/>For over a decade, Katina, a classically trained guitarist has brought a high degree of sophistication to the band. Thrashing hair, shredding leads, and incendiary tone distinguish her as an axe-woman to rival the hordes of men.<BR/><BR/>Since the late 90s, Rafa, a veteran avante-guard punk innovator has brought diverse musical elements on bass.<BR/><BR/>In 2003, Ben Axiom, the anarcho-punk/metal influenced drummer was recruited. He thunders out an alternating barrage of machine-like blasts and traditional heart-driven punk beats. <BR/><BR/>As the current line-up congealed and proved to be the most powerful and dynamic yet assembled, the late Jesse Pintado R.I.P. (TERRORIZER/NAPALM DEATH) a long time friend and former band-mate of Anthony Rezhawk, began writing, recording, and playing with Resistant Culture. He contributed on and off for two years before his tragic abrupt death in August 2006.<BR/><BR/>The last contribution Jesse made to the world of music was the monumental long awaited Terrorizer follow-up release Darker Days Ahead. It was his recent involvement in Resistant Culture that laid the foundation for Anthony Rezhawk’s vocal performance on this historic album.<BR/><BR/>Currently licensed by SOS records, the re-release of Resistant Culture’s Welcome to Reality CD contains 16 tracks of urgent tribal grind crust.<BR/><BR/>The band has finished the long awaited All One Struggle ablum and is currently licensing distribution throughout the world.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14106628347371659501noreply@blogger.com
