Hardcore icons Gorilla Biscuits came together in the late '80s to add their two cents to the straight-edge scene in New York City. They were very reactionary, encouraging the movement away from the militant rules that many hardcore straight-edge fans had created around their favorite bands. Their main goal was to try and include anyone who wanted to take on their political views without worrying about the aesthetics, something that made them unpopular with many. ~ Bradley Torreano
