They're good and nice guys, and really deserved more attention than they've gotten. Not sure what they're up to these days, but I heard Mike stopped playing guitar for them. I might have some of their old stuff that I can send you if you're interested.

And this thread got me looking back at some older stuff. You can find the roots of Lucky Scars here: http://tallahasseemusicscene.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/defaul...

Mike (guitar) and Brandon (vocals) used to be in Convicted, and you can download some of their stuff at that link. The "United Working Class" stuff is probably the best place to start... the older stuff, from what I remember, is more basic three-chord oi. (Discipline, you might like this, and maybe tireironsaint.)

Biggs used to play drums in GWPI and Skeffingtons Gyves. GWPI was a straight up punk band. Skeffingtons Gyves was crazy hardcore.

Biggs died in a car accident, and Lucky Scars was formed from the remnants of those three bands. The original drummer for Lucky Scars was in GWPI, and Sam was in Skeffingtons Gyves.

Honestly, I don't remember where Scabz fit into the mix, aside from hitting on young girls and talking about all the creepy porn he used to watch.
