THIS IS THE START…(T401-03)
This was supposed to be the title of the first FEUD demo which was consequently the maiden release of Take-4 as a label. But before we get to that, let me share you the story of how these blokes came about and decided they wanted to take over our local hardcore punk community.

I guess it started some time around the latter part of 1997 or 1998 that I started hanging out with the guys who was then running GET IN TOUCH zine, who for your info were the now infamous Regala brothers. I was living in Cavite that time and spending most of my time forming this new straightedge band called FEUD and making copies of my zine called STEP FORWARD. Inevitably, our paths crossed and knew then that we all wanted the same things to happen, and so the need for a merger of these two zines followed suit, hence: THE GET IN TOUCH – STEP FORWARD CONSPIRACY, or The Conspiracy, for brevity. We managed to release a couple of issues which was then considered essential reading for any hardcore punk kid. We’re so proud of those issues and it’s a shame that we have stopped doing those zines in place of the more convenient Myspace/Blogging shit we have these days.

As for the label, the first release of T4 is of course T4:01 FEUD: NEVER SURRENDER TO THE ENEMY demo tape which was recorded live at some studio in Singalong, Manila with the Quiricada Youth Crew providing the back-up vocals. A friend from Malaysia (Rain City Fanzine) helped us release that demo tape. It contains covers of Vitamin X and Youth of Today and was a sign of things to come for our local scene.

The next two tape releases of T4 were reissues of bands that we all love at that time: T4:02 CATHARSIS ‘Passion’ and T4:03 WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? ‘Collection’ tape. Both these bands were interviewed by The Conspiracy and were definitely a big influence on us and the rest of the local scene at that time… -mic
