June 2005

Sub-Mission Underground was the reason that I shot most of these live videos.  Anyone alive in the 80's knew that music pretty much sucked, and MTV sucked more.  

Together with long time partner Sphinx Svenson, we turned out about 15, one hour episodes of this indie rock version of MTV.   We had some major label support, but it was mostly used for filler or to make fun of (Madonna & Junkyard were often targets).  Pretty much anything we got from an indie label took priority over the major label stuff.  Still, in the 80's there weren't a lot of indie labels that could afford to make videos for their bands, so indie content was often sparse.

This show was hosted by Tim & Jason from THD.

This show featured videos from:  Bad Brains, Agitpop, Alice Donut, Pussy Galore, Junkyard, Ministry, The Creatures, Soul Asylum, Youth of Today, Libido Boyz, Swingin' Teens, Porcelain Boys, Neurosis, Tag Team, Mondo Trasho, Blast, Inspector 12 and a commercial for the THD Radio hour.  THD radio was the predecessor to the THD label and Jason's current show on Radio K, Out of Step.
