About
Negative Approach is considered by most fans of the Punk and Hardcore scene as one of the greatest Hardcore Bands ever! Formed in 1981, the original line-up included John Brannon Vocals, Rob McCulloch on Guitar, Pete Zelewski on Bass, and Zuheir on Drums. Pete and Zuheir were soon replaced by Rob's brother Graham McCulloch on Bass, and OP Moore on Drums. Their first record was a 7" EP, which featured 10 songs; the song "Pressure" being only 9 seconds long. The EP was released in '82 and followed up by the "Tied Down" LP the following year, both on Touch and GO Records. Touch and Go later released a CD compilation "Total Recall." This CD featured the 7" EP and the "Tied Down" LP, along with a track from the "Process of Elimination" EP and some rare live tracks.
