CHOKING VICTIM and the crazy crack-punk pioneer CANCELED by his own 

The Reeza, the Gezza, Methodic Man, The old dirty pervert, Rayman the Legend, that dude from the scream movies, and not to forget You-God.... And sometime Belladonna, I guess she was considered a unofficial member too..

Gave that dude a ride to a party after a show one time... my car stank for 3 weeks after

"Steeza, just like rappers Reeza and Geeza" lol

The video at the end with him doing his acoustic thing sounds like Eric Cartman singing

Saw LOC when I was like 17 in San Diego, I asked stza for something to remember the show by. I was expecting like a set list, or a guitar pick or something. The guy punched me square in the chest. Good times.

As a former crusty asshole that loved these guys to death I've always been in between on Stza. He's like a godhead to these crust-punk kids and god it is fucking annoying if you aren't involved. It's like talking to Christian missionaries on methamphetamine.

At 13:25, so he progressed to singing like Cartman.

None of the controversy surprised me. The music always seemed authentic to me and all the clues are in the lyrics. I mean damn they literally promote crack and heroin use 😂

Dude sounds like the crust punk Seth Putnam

Imagine tryin to cancel a crackhead 😂

I saw leftover Crack sooo many times when I was a teen. One show in philly we were at sold out & it was pouring rain outside so we were just hanging outside the venue. My bf at the time had "born to die" tatted on his stomach & Stza was outside smoking a cigarette & saw it & got us all into the show with one wristband for all of us. Good memory😂

Dude, that drummer is a fucking beast! Never payed attention before.

Kinda disappointed about how the video didn't really go into any detail on any of the "controversies". Stza is a POS and has been for literally decades at this point. He's not cancelled because "he said she said" like was brushed past in this video. Would be great to see a more thorough retelling of the story.

Hearing a British dude mispronounce not only RZA and GZA BUT THE NAME OF THE DUDE HES MAKING A VIDEO ABOUT is hilarious

Good video. One thing that you missed that I think is very important is that when he was a child Scott found his fathers body after he committed suicide by hanging. It definitely had a huge impact on his work, and on his mental state.

I met him back in like, 2008 or 2010…….. And he stunk awful. That kind of dry stink that has been there for weeks or months.

Since the first day I met him, I've always loved Scott

RZA and GZA are pronounced Rizza and Jizza, not Reeza and Geeza (although geeza -geezer- would make sense in Britain,that term hasn’t quite entered the urban lexicon on the island of Shaolin NY)

I watched these guys destroy a bar in my hometown. Kids were jumping of pool tables and stza was swinging by the lights. The next day they had a care beer hunt and slaughter which was basically an Easter egg hunt for cheap beer as stza lead us through the woods with a machete.

I watched him play at the Stanton show last week. It wasn’t great but it was cool to listen to old songs.

the one time I met LoC was essentially the last tour of Ezra and Stza were still friends and it was the show in Minneapolis during Cracktoberfest tour and they were cool as fuck after the show. I didnt really get a chance to talk to Ezra or Brad which sucked but I did get to talk to and share very few words with Stza and this was like when Constructs of the State was going to be released later that year or the following, I cant remember, anyways like... I managed to find a studio recording version of the song Lie of Luck on Myspace and it was the original unfinished version they recorded. And anyways the reason I bring that up cus Stz asked the crowd if they wanted to hear a song from SFH from the unreleased album and I was like in the front standing with the mosh behind me, but as soon as I heard the guitar rift I knew and was like "oh, shit! I know this song!" and I'm pretty sure Alec could tell, cus he shot me a grin and nodded but I was singing the lyrics that I knew and I'm not really sure if anyone else even heard the song but I think Stz knew I heard the song cus he reached out his hand with the mic right in front of me and whoever else was by me and dude straight up gave me a high-five. And I was like "fuck yeah!" and it blew my mind, but after the show finished I didnt really get a chance to conversate with him and its prolly cus we were like standing in a circle as Scott was speaking about wanting to see if there were peeps they could hang out with at their place instead of getting a hotel or something, I think they were trying to do an afterparty thing after the show and he did ask me but my ass came with 4 buddies and we all lived way up north, (was like a 2-3 drive to minneapolis) and the moments he wasnt speaking a fan would ask him to sign something or share thoughts on whatever or girls would ask for selfies but Alec was like just quietly listening to others speak but he started talking to me for some reason and I think he did that cus, he seen I was kinda bummed that I didnt get to really say anything to Stz cus at the time, Stz was a huge inspiration to me, and the whole CV MG LOC INDK was my jam- but we were like vibing and just the fact Alec did that cus when I'm surrounded by others I dont know I tend to be "shy" or quiet and he picked up on that, and I picked up on the fact he did, but he made me appreciate him as an individual sooo much more then I thought was possible. Definitely one of the coolest guys I met. Extremely humble, sharp, and laid back. RIP Alec Baillie

Very stoked on calling out all of folk punk lol

Theres no E in Rza or Gza

Watching him wither away like this makes me happy tht I’m finally sober. Cause Jesus man he’s really not doing good.

This shit takes me back.. i feel like a shower all the sudden.

This band definitely did not help me when I was doing drugs 😅

He now called himself STEEEZ-UH, just like the rappers REEEZ-UH and GEEEEZ-UH. LMFAO

Great video Tome

I'm very grateful to have good copy of No God's No Managers on CD, still bump it to this day in the parking lot at Walmart on break lol

Reeza and Geeza lmaooo...have you never heard a Wu song smh

In the screen shots posted in this video what does he mean by 'she's trying to do to me what she did to Erik perterson' ? As far as I'm aware Erik struggled in silence with his mental health and was found in a park dead on 14th July :(

no matter what the people did, became or will be. the music will live on in our hearts

Weird how little mention there is of Skwert Gunn, the drummer who recorded on literally every single album and has 1/3 song writing credit on most of the entire discography, as if he wasn’t just as integral of a part of the band as the other guys. Oh and you can check out his other band, Public Serpents for a similar sound without supporting an abuser- it’s the guilt free CV!

What there needs to be is a Leftover Crack Netflix Bio Pic, and an objective portrait of a controversial figure.

I once saw Leftover Crack live in Cologne, Germany (maybe 2009, 10 or 11). First he kicked some guys early-days smartphone out of his hands as he was trying to take a picture. Then the guy got upset cause his phone was broken and Stza smashed a huge German Bavarian beer glass on his amp and went for the first row of the crowd, swinging the broken side of the glass. It was nuts.

Stza got the shit kicked out of him after that show at Headline Records in '99. Then he got all of his alcohol and drugs taken. He learned real quick to watch his mouth in Los Angeles. Missed his show that night and the following day because he was stuck in the hospital pissing blood 😂😂😂

I didn’t need social media to ruin leftover crack for me. I saw them live.

My favourite band of all time ❤ love them forever

Good video; Just realized - after watching 2023 Stza's performance - that the band's name is actually the way of saying 'our frontman souds like fucking choking victim'. Well played, well done ...

Stza crack sing Reagan youth I heard somewhere Lmaoo

I don't trust music without atmosphere.

CRS fucking rules!!! Choking Victim, Leftover Crack, indk, CRS5, all kick very much ass!!! Very very much!!!

The soundtrack of the TL.

Bro, you have the perfect voice for making these types of videos. I felt like I was watching a national geographic doc haha. Subbed!

Thats what happen when u play holier than thou

I love it when people complain about someone being cancelled as if there isn’t a fucking reason for it.

bro called him geeza

funny how a culture that revolves around rudeness, abuse, drugs, and mental illness suddenly decided to cancel a guy who's life revolves around abuse, drugs, and mental illness.

abuse is not punk

2019 punk island me and my friends got to sit and talk to shayne for a while and he was super nice to ice. He had an arm injury due to welding apparently. It was a crazy concert that I cannot put all into words in this comment.

Saw LoC 3 times around 2006-2010...none of this was very suprising honestly..the first time i saw them some fan jumped on stage and tried to put his arm around Stza and sing along w him, then he just straight up pushed the guy off stage, stopped the whole show and was like "woah what the fuck okay listen up assholes, you dont grab me, the only people who grab people by their necks are cops, and i dont know who the fuck you are, you could have scabies or some other shit i dont want near me" and went on for like 5 mins...prob either going through heroin withdrawl or wayyy too coked/crack-d up ...ah well...

This is the most ai generated video I've seen, I was hoping for an actually good video about the topic

They still tour not really cancelled yes he was in a toxic relationship yes Whitney and him where both pieces of shit to each other these covers none of that. You cannot cancel something that doesn't give a fuck about being canceled. Punk shoulda stayed underground where it began.

Oh shit i'm in this doco lmao

Fellas is it "today's woke terms" to call out an abusive hypocrite?

Alec was the dude.

That redwood show is available on RU-vid and you can tell how much people still love hearing STZA. He even signed a bunch of stuff and took pictures after the show. Imo, he's a good guy.. just troubled.

This is great . & funny . & long overdue . Good job who ever made this!! Love the brittish voiceover narration ❤

This is hilariously funny, best practical jokes i helped create, thank you for adding to the legend😅

Trying to cancel someone has to be one of the least punk rock things I’ve ever heard

From my experiences with STZA in the past (which are few), he’s pretty chill when he’s not geeked the fuck out, but becomes a total piece of shit when he is.

There's always 3 sides to every story.

Leftover Crack is ideologically everything I hate but I'm fond of irony so I enjoy their bangers.

The English dude from Mad men- nice! That guy is awesome

It was wild to see Johnny hobo / Pat on this little documentary... good kid he would down and play shows with us in Massachusetts and Connecticut

I once had my wallet stolen at a Leftover Crack show.

I was wondering what had happened with LOC didn't know about all the abuse shit. Makes sense why they don't play that often anymore.

Saying they would be less popular today and using "woke" as the reason is so dumb. Their message makes more sense now than ever. Stza rambles on Instagram too much and doesn't do himself any favours for people to believe his side of the story.

That was STZA singing? Boy that's a relief for a minute there I thought the cat got stuck in the dishwasher again

I'll never forget the first time I fired up that first Give em the Boot album and heard infested, or getting sht-faced while listening to No Gods-No Managers and Mediocre Generica ad nauseum. Gave us something to believe in. Sturge is emotionally disregulated, always has been. He is a loser, he is is Satan, he is Jesus Christ, he's you and me.

Seeing them play Tompkins Square park in the 00’s was the best punk show I’ve ever seen

I didnt know about Stiza and Whitney. I made Whitney a lasagna once, she is a strong and talented individual. Matters of the heart are often difficult especially for folks who are troubled. I hope they are both ok. I made a piñata for Stiza once it was a police officer. I filled it with airplane bottles and 'Other Stuff'. That was a good time. Id like to give Stiza a hug he looks like he needs it.

Sturgeon never went to college - Alec and Stza went to high school together.

“Steeza, just like the rap icons Reeeza and Geeeza”

Last of a dead breed. And all thats left are clones. Rip Alec LoC Choking V Morning G helped me grow up in this world. Seeing them live the many times i did changed my life. From the free shows at tompkins to seeing them in houses and little bars and boeling alleys. i proudly represent Crack rock steady patch on my hat and always will.

“Everything I don’t agree with is woke because my media told me to think this way.”

sorry but it's not pronounced reeza and geeza..more like rizza and jizza..just an fyi

On México city show. I got up to the stage that was waist high, and when i was getting close to the mic to sing along, he swinged his guitar against me with an angry face. So when i backed up i stumbled with a girl who was sitting on the edge of the stage while recording, she fell of the stage face first. I was catched crowd surfing. Hard to see the girl fall. Fun show though. Great band

Saw Leftover Crack play w/Citizen Fish in the late 00s. It was great besides having this really uncomfortable chunk of the show watching this dude & the guitarist have some lame argument over god knows what. But Citizen Fish was effing awesome, played all their good stuff. As for him being cAnCelLeD or whateves meh- from what I could tell the girl from Daze probably sucks too. I'm not saying he's not a scumbag- just that he's in good company.

Poor stza I wonder what happened to Ezra I seen leftover crack back in 04in Dallas was a wonderful show after the show we hooked up with the drummer and we had the most crazy night of our life that night also the drummer died from an of rip Bran x possible

Terrible role models, but the music is pretty damn good if we're being honest with ourselves. It just offers you no hope and leaves you feeling empty and happy with your emptiness, drug addiction, alienation and homelessness. I enjoyed Leftover Crack the band, but always thought their fans were obnoxious. The fans aspired to be like them, and that's nothing to aspire.

Love that you included Pat the bunny in this

I remember they made a 7 inch called baby. Jesus sliced up in a manger.

“Kill your idols! Except me!”

Legend. Period.

Met Stza after a leftover crack show at a teen, guy was kind of a douche and kind of funny. Best experience ever! Their show was one of the wildest times, people hanging on pipes on the ceiling and the venue owner was freaking out trying to shut it down. Ended with crack rock steady :)

Everytime I met him he was really cool, I was usually drunk though

Won't lie, CV and LOC have made some great music.

5 finger discount will always remind me of rushing on extacy while bombing hills. im a fan for life.

How the mighty have fallen

Such a waste, a clever talented man.

I think this oversells the value of that record / band.. "one of the greatest masterpieces ever.." eh.. Idk man.. I wanna send you some records... but whatever.. it had its charm... different strokes... cool videos.. keep on truckin.

Long Live STZA CRACK!... ciconic American Ska Punk Icon! 😜👌💨😵‍💫 Cancel Yourself!

i saw leftover crack live back to back nights in orlando fl around june 2009. in between each song stza shotgunned a beer lol. he was hammered by the end of the set.

Did you leave out the part of stza punching Nico of Star Fucking hipsters in the face, just for being late for rehearsels, on purpose?

Ahhh, you totally glossed over his lucrative painting career!

I love in Australia and I met a young Punk from the states while he was here on holidays. We got talking about these guys and he said that everyone turned on him calling him a fraud cause he decided he wanted to have a family and get settled down. R.I.P Sterling Leonidas Sweet.

I went to a Leftover Crack concert in San Bernardino CA, apparently they were banned in LA proper. It was legit scary and thrilling how the pit was.

I drove leftover crack to the abandoned fort where they shot that video. It was a fun day until the girl from dayz n dayz got drunk and started screaming at her 2 boyfriends as they tried to coddle her

The Team Spider Christmas Show is what TV was meant to be
