Antioch Arrow
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Antioch Arrow, from California, was on the seminal hardcore/emo label Gravity Records, responsible for putting San Diego on the map in the mid-90's as one of the centers of the movement. Antioch Arrow used the fast and chaotic framework of hardcore to create songs that were at times melodic and at times indiscernable, but almost always curious and at breakneck speed. Their calling card was surely their vocalist Aaron Montaigne, dramatic and theatrical, whispered or shrieked, his obtuse and stream of consciousness lyrics forced an audience to react.
31G Records re-released the 1995 Gems of Masochism, which is undeniably their most influential release.
Antioch Arrow's original members were Aaron Montaigne, Mac Mann, Ron Anarchy, Jeff Winterberg, and Aaron Ricards. Ricards was later replaced by Andy Ward (also of the band Evergreen). Members went on to form Tarot Bolero, Get Hustle, amongst others.
