HISTORY

Originally called Crippled Youth , the band was formed in Katonah, New York by Matt Warnke (vocals), Tim Brooks (bass) and Drew Thomas (drums). After a couple of shows with Matt singing and playing guitar, they recruited John 'Zulu' Zuluaga on guitar, and Matt switched to just singing. They released a 7" EP entitled '''Join The Fight''' on the California label New Beginning in 1986 before switching to the name ''Bold''. It was under this name that they recorded the 11-song LP ''Speak Out''. The record was supposed to be released on California's WishingWell Records, but was eventually released in 1988 on Revelation .

The band later recruited Tom Capone ( Beyond / Shelter / Quicksand /etc.) on second guitar, and recorded a self-titled 5-song 7" in 1989, also on Revelation . The 7" is by many considered their best material, adding more melody to their straightforward Hardcore sound. The 7" EP was re-issued on a 12" entitled '''Looking Back''' in 1993, with 2 bonus tracks.

Bold reunited in 2005 with Warnke on vocals, Capone on guitar, Brooks on bass and Vinny Panza on drums. '', which contains the band's entire recorded output.
