NY Hardcore Scene / Alternative Metal / Punk Rock | Roadrunner Records # 9070-2 + 9017-2
As early 90s NYHC ventured into melodicism, Black Train Jack was born. Frequenting CBGB's and making a name for themselves alongside the likes of CIV and influenced by The Descendents, the band took their name from a Rollins Band song called "Wreck-age"… In 1993 the New York Hardcore scene was a wasteland of hyper-negative head stomp music. Tattooed tough guys and weekend warriors ruled the scene. Anyone who ventured outside the walls of Cro-Mags/Corrosion Of Conformity was likely beaten on the dance floor. Harmony was the farthest thing from anyone's mind. Then came Black Train Jack. These guys didn't care about pretense, the NYHC zeitgeist, or being perceived as "soft" – they just wanted to make good music. Harmony replaced hatred and BTJ changed the scene for the rest of the 90's.
New York hardcore troupe brought up in the CBGB's era, owing obvious stylistic debts to Agnostic Front, Murphy's Law, etc., but with more of an ear for melody. The band centres around local legend Ernie Parada, who had previously formed hardcore semi-legends Token Entry, remaining their drummer for several years. Switching to guitar, he was joined in Black Train Jack by former Token Entry roadies Brian (bass) and four-octave, classically trained vocalist Rob. The line-up was completed by Nick (drums), recruited from the group's neighbourhood of Astoria, Queens. They took their name, meanwhile, from a touring incident when all four of them headed off-road in Brian's jeep and ended up in a sewage plant. Henry Rollins' Hard Volume was playing from the tape-deck, and as the group emerged, covered from head to foot in sewage, they adapted a line from "Wreck-age" that stated, appropriately: "You've got a ticket on the blacktrain, Jack". Their crunching guitar music was unveiled on a debut album "No Reward" co-produced with manager Anthony Countey, and crossed a street-perspective with the pop sentiments of Bow Wow Wow, or, closer to home, Descendents/All. The second album? You're Not Alone, was released in April of 1994 and that was their last full-length album.
