An Irreverent Fanzine.
Est. 1984

Cap’n Jazz were one of those mythical bands I never thought I would get to see live. I first learned of them years ago while I was still in high school through a pitchfork video that gave a surface level history about the emo genre. It covered a few of the many bands that not only changed the sound of hardcore at the time but are still seen as influential to this day. Hearing that snippet of Oh Messy Life had me entranced and led me down the Kinsella brothers rabbit hole where I learned about all of the bands they have been in and how they had influenced pretty much all of my favorite bands at the time. From the advent of post-hardcore to the creation of midwest emo, the influence of Tim and Mike Kinsella cannot be understated.
