The Hello and welcome to Turned Out of Punk.

I'm your host, Demian Abraham, and today on the show, Jack Choke Kelly from the band Slapshot, from Last Rights, from negative effects, from Stars and Stripes.

Jack as, uh, choke, sorry, has been a constant presence in hardcore since hardcore's kind of inception.

And someone who, uh, well, they don't come more influential and divisive than choke.

He is someone who, as you'll hear in a second, really enjoys playing the heel.

This is a conversation I've wanted to have for a very long time because when it comes to

vocalists, I can't think of too many that are more influential for me.

Like this is definitely, it feels like in a lot of ways,

I'm completing like all my list of hugely important

vocalists that are still with us.

There's people who have passed away, of course,

but HR, I guess, would be the other one.

But choke is someone who, yeah, like, since I was like first getting into this music, I've always wanted to kind of sound like choke when I sang in a band.

So this is a big guest for me to have on the show. As I say, though, he is someone who is divisive and certainly someone who has not shied away from saying controversial things over the years, but not that it

explains it, or I'm sure for a lot of people, justifies it, but I think it'll put it into

context when you hear this show and kind of like, I don't know, I'm really excited for you

hear this conversation.

You'll hear one second.

Shout out to my brother and guest Booker extraordinaire and show producer Tristan Abraham for all the hard work he does for this show.
