Well, hey everyone, welcome to this week's episode of The Vinyl Guide, the podcast for fans and

collectors of vinyl records. And this week we have on the show with us, Monty Messicks, from the band DFL.

Now, I'm going to give you 60 seconds to remove any kiddos from the room before I say the full

name of this band, but this is definitely a story you want to hear.

DFL is a killer hardcore punk band who started

off as a side project with a couple of the Beastie Boys. Today, Monty tells the story about what it was

like to start a band with Adam Horowitz and Mike D, what the scene was like for them, their transition

to epitaph records, and the recent re-release of the proud-to-be DFL LP on vinyl.

There is lots to cover today.

And who do we have to thank?

Groove washer, of course.

And with that, let's talk about an incredible time in the history of music when the Beastie Boys moved to the West Coast, started a record label, opened a recording studio, and began a punk rock project.

It's The Vinyl Guide's interview with Monty Messicks from DFL.
