Leftöver Crack is an American punk rock band formed in 1998 following the breakup of its predecessor Choking Victim, sharing band members Stza & Alec Baillie (also bandmates in their first band that they formed together in high school: No Commercial Value) until Alec’s tragic death in November of 2021. The band is currently recording new music & will be reissuing all of their previous albums, with the exception of their debut LP “Medicore Generica” (Hellcat/Epitaph). Manufactured & distributed by MVD in North America, Leftöver Crack’s own Recidivist Bible Camp record label released its first song & video for the track “Shooticide” from the upcoming Leftöver Crack recording: “Abandon the Precincts” aka Volume 4 on RBC records & psalms.

The Album also features two songs recorded during the “Constructs of the State” LP sessions: “The Dead” co-written by Stu Daly of Dublin, Ireland’s legendary “Chewing on Tinfoil” aka “Chewie” & Stza, it features vocals by the late Erik Peterson of Philadelphia’s beloved Mischief Brew & a song called “Manger Danger” co-written by Stza with the Huntington Beach based team of Brad Logan & Donny Morris, who also played together in the hard-core band “Rats in the Wall”. Leftöver Crack’s current touring line-up consists of Scott Sturgeon aka Stza Crack (vocals, guitar, synth), Tibbie X (vocals, synth), Marc Cody (bass, vocals) Skunk Chelovec (guitar, vocals), Jon Yi (guitar, vocals) & Ethan Nickles (drums). Leftöver Crack has both defied genre pigeon-holing while creating the “Crack Rock Steady” music genre (along with LöC predecessors Choking Victim & No Commercial Value) which mixes anarcho-punk with ska, hardcore, garage, crust-punk & the gloriously unholy metal trifecta of thrash, doom & death. All of this & many other styles are combined with grating crust-punk vocals delivered with a snotty snarling attitude by a multitude of genders & an endless list of vocal & musical inspirations including vastly contrasting formstop 40 pop from the last 50 Years, to 90’s hip hop, early 80’s goth, late 80’s “alternative”, indie rock & most styles in between & outside of every box. The lyrical content is o BBB n f a radical leftist nature, opposing religion, capitalism, authority & prejudice. Members of Leftöver Crack’s band & crew reside at C-Squat near Tompkins square park. Band members have had a well-known history of back-and-forth conflict with the NYPD which precedes the band's formation. The name "Leftöver Crack" is explained by Stza as being "an oxymoron", based on the idea that crack cocaine addicts are known for vigorous use, and are unlikely to have any "leftover"(s). Leftover Crack’s band members & Collaborators have been in a plethora of other bands both punk & otherwise with recognizable names such as: Suicidal Tendencies, The Coup, Dead Milkmen, Nausea, The Beastie Boys, Reagan Youth, Dwarves, Choking Victim, Skarp, F-Minus, D.R.I., Bouncing Souls, Union 13, Dead Kennedy’s, Crass, NOFX, Riverboat Gamblers, Big Black, GASH, Street-Sweeper Social Club, Anti-Flag, The Adolescents, Star Fucking Hipsters, DayCare Swindlers, the Distillers, Phobia, The Hold Steady, Lard, X-Possibles, Operation Ivy, INDK, Band of Horses, informal Society, MDC,No Commercial Value, Jello Biafra, John Cougar Mellencamp, World/Inferno Friendship Society, The Infirmities, Classics of Love, Destruction Made Simple, Scoflaws, Total Chaos, Henry Thugsworth & the Severinator, Hepcat, Lagwagon,& many many others…
