411 was the bi-product of the end of 1980’s hardcore. At a time when the youth were getting older, going to college, trading their Straight Edge for a different way, the underground stars of our youth were also taking a less intense approach to getting the message out. Adopting melody and insightful lyrics over straight forward, in your face attacks was the way of life entering the 1990’s.

Enter 411!! The project fronted by former NO FOR AN ANSWER and CARRY NATION singer/mouthpiece, Dan O’Mahony (later with VOICEBOX, GOD FORGOT, SPEAK714, and JOHN HENRY HOLIDAY). Taking hardcore music to a level that only a few had attempted. Adding perfect words to an already flawless sound. Giving those of us who listened a challenge to go beyond the typical rant and making think before we speak.

Taking with him his co-conspirator Kevin Murphy, they assembled a team that would take on the current and fight the waves. Making an underground impact with the 2 song 7 inch record, “Thoughts That Feed The Fire”, in 1990; then a head-on attack in 1991 with “This Isn’t Me”. They took their assault on the road a half dozen times until the end of the road only a few years after.

Even now, in 2007, older hardcore types have been searching high and low for another taste of this underground powerhouse. A band that was 15 years ahead of their time with little recognition.

An old review on “This Isn’t Me” from an issue of MAXIMUMROCKANDROLL (sorry, I don’t have the issue number):
“Simply put, a great record! This new band from Southern California features Dan O’Mahony (ex NO FOR AN ANSWER, CARRY NATION). This is a definite progression from previous projects. Building on the ideology of those previous projects and expanding upon lyrically in a more political and introspective manner. Musically melodic and powerful with an in your face quality that provides a solid framework and forum for the ideas and emotions expressed. This LP is only exceded by 411’s live performance. (MK)
