Three One G Records ORDER FROM OUR WEB STORE: www.threeoneg.com In this way, the label serves as documentation of an auditory evolution for many musicians over the years.

Created in 1994 by Justin Pearson, merely a teenager at the time looking to release his bands’ music on a label that matched his own odd tastes and creative aesthetics, Three One G grew out of necessity more than anything. Since then, it has always been a labor of love, an all-hands-on-deck DIY approach to represent familiar faces, band mates’ bands, tour family, and those who are kindred spirits,

that connect with the culture that the label holds dear. This includes acts spanning the world and across all styles, from Italian noise duo Zeus!, to New Orleans’ puppet show sweethearts Quintron and Miss Pussycat, to Mike Patton fronted hardcore savages, Dead Cross. Twenty years later, the label has grown organically, taken on even more friends, family and misfits along the way, and unleashed unto the world over 100 strange, eclectic, fantastic releases since its inception. What started with innovative music and vinyl from bands like Unbroken, Blood Brothers, and Some Girls eventually branched out to include the same members of the Three One G family's more recent projects, like Narrows, Head Wound City, and Secret Fun Club. Where else could one find legendary rapper Kool Keith on the same label as a heavy, noisy band like Metz? Or a tribute to Queen with a cover of Bohemian Rhapsody by Weasel Walter (knock on wood, no lawsuits yet!)? Three One G is the vessel to build these winding, strange, impractical and yet somehow logical bridges between genres, regions, and every other barrier out there that exists to try to separate people who are more alike than they realize. It has managed to do this through its continued DIY ethos and stubborn efforts to maintain the same high, uncompromising standards that it has held itself to from the beginning.

Cult & Culture Podcast Episode 57 feat. Albert Birney (Director, actor, writer of OBEX)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8okhRMv4oto

Cult & Culture Podcast Episode 57 is a discussion with Albert Birney, director, actor, and writer of his most recent film OBEX-- a story that centers around a man in search for his dog in a world that blurs the lines between video game and reality. This is part three of Luke and Justin's five part series of conversations with independent directors that took place at this year's Oak Cliff Film Fest in Texas. The trio talk about the aesthetics of the film, with the goal of creating a "lofi" feel and striving for authenticity. They dive into the filmmaking process, breaking down a lot of the techniques that were used and the process of collaborating on the film score with Deakin of Animal Collective, an old friend of Albert's, to target a "retro" perspective. Birney is also a musician himself, having been in bands as well as recording on his own. They discuss the magic of dogs, the potential for creating a video game to accompany the film, time travel, and nostalgia.

These records marked the band’s closing statements, capturing both the raw intensity and the emotional weight that defined Unbroken’s sound. At the time, they stood apart in hardcore for their dark, and more punk approach, shaping a wave of bands that followed. Decades later, their influence is still felt, not just in the music, but in the way they showed hardcore could be both brutal and vulnerable, yet deeply human.

Unbroken was an amalgam of that which “didn’t fit” in the sometimes militant hardcore scene of San Diego in the mid 90s. Made up of members Dave Claiborne, Steven Andrew Miller, Eric Allen, Todd Beattie, and Rob Moran, the group had style more akin to Morrissey than metal. And, like any worthwhile band, the original, don’t-give-a-f**k-about-fitting-in attitude that they brought to straight edge was fiercely adored by many, and confusing or offensive to others. Their energy was lawless, their presence unpredictable. Though dedicated to the philosophy of drug and alcohol abstinence, Unbroken did not treat their music as an exclusive club meant to shut others out; rather, they embraced Southern California’s eclectic if not downright weird punk, metal, and hardcore community. This led to a devoted following equally as diverse. Frequently referred to as “metalcore” while maintaining elements and DIY ethics often associated with “punk”, the bands’ album “Life.Love.Regret” is considered by many to be one of the most influential pieces of hardcore music from its time. Three years after the initial breakup of the band, the world lost guitarist Eric Allen, which led to a reformation for one reunion show as a benefit for the Allen family. Since then, they have toured minimally on and off. Though currently inactive, what was special about Unbroken remains, and lives on in many people.
