Sometimes, it’s really difficult to remember the twists and turns of history. Now, try to remember the twists and turns of history of a band that you weren’t even in and it becomes REALLY difficult.
Today’s post is all about a band called Public Descent. When I first started asking for contributions to be included on this blog, Jeff Vaders (a fella a lot of us grew up with) was one of the first individuals to contact me. He sent me random recordings that he had and several of them are already up on the previous posts. Jeff had been in Fracture at the very beginning of the band but shortly left and started Public Descent. A very different kind of band.
We’ll have more details about that sorted affair in the future, but for now, let’s just listen to this recording. Atom sent this MP3 to me this morning proclaiming it as one of his favorite Public Descent songs. It originally appeared on a 7″ compilation. Sorry, I don’t have the cover. Maybe someone can scan it in for me and send it over.

As far as we can tell, this recording is Dan Goldberg on guitar and vocals, Fernando Polanco on drums, Jeff Vaders on bass and back up vocals and Jeremy Rocket on guitar.
I’m pretty sure that the ‘cover’ is a plastic bag with some xerox copies of such things as a Sockeye art proclaiming that they ‘are circumsized. This song does rule. Dan sounds like a monster… a chloroseptic empowered one, at that.
I have the comp … Atom is right, it is a plastic bag with photocopies, no “real” cover. I have some wicked old photos of Matt Lieberman’s basement shows. Will have to scan and send on.
And it just hit me listening to it again .. Dan had to sing cause Roy had just quit the band that morning when we were slated to go into the Dump studio to record…Acme took precedence over the band… geez.
Roy is a good friend of mine. A couple weeks ago he asked if i could find a 7″ of public descent with his vocals. is it anywhere to be found?
I’m sure I have a couple left in my house somewhere. Eve, send your contact info to dmgdmg at gmail dot com and I’ll pass on what I have.
thanks!
This was the band with the rotating door. It started with Fernando and me. I was playing guitar for a bit but then bought a bass and really wanted to play it for this. We happily managed to get Dan to jump in, badass guitarist that he was. We wrote a handful of songs and covered a few for practice. Then tried out a few singers along with me singing while on bass and Dan singing while on guitar. We even tried out an opera singer once…far too talented for us…haha! We finally settled on Angie Lekan who I saw floating around in one of those pictures with Dan up top. This combo went through a ridiculous list of names before settling on Public Descent, my favorite of which was GRIMBUS! Our sound was kind of a dark ska-core which we played at a couple basement shows. At some point I just plain picked up and left town and didn’t come back for a couple years. That’s when Jeff jumped in. The sound shifted to a thicker metally kind of grindcore sound at that point. I remember T.j. played a show or two either before or after Jeremy jumped on board…and of course Roy gave it a go as singer. I’m sure Dan or Fernando could fill in some blanks as far as that whole chronology goes. It felt like an amoebic monster that showed promise with each lineup but never really coalesced into anything solid…well, at least that I know of.
