Gorilla Biscuits

Hardcore icons Gorilla Biscuits, from NYC, shaped the late '80s straight-edge scene with an inclusive approach. Known for "Start Today," they featured Anthony Civarelli ("Civ"), Arthur Smilios, Luke Abbey, and Walter Schreifels. They disbanded in 1992, but their influence remains.
