Summary
Beneath The Remains formed in late october 1996. Jimmy Heil on drums and Curran Thomas on guitar began to jam up in curran's one room efficiency in downtown Walden NY. Later that week, Matt Slater joined to play bass and the trio began to write some of the earliest songs like Ladder of Strength & Crutch which ended up on Beneath The Remains "Roots of Chaotic Disorder" demo, & within a short couple of weeks Cesar Bobadilla joined the band to do vocals. Cesar was known locally as well as in the New York Hardcore scene and was a perfect fit to the band. Beneath The Remains quickly acquired local fans who wanted to attend practice, as a result BTR moved their practice room to a garage in downtown Newburgh NY. By this time the band had written four complete songs and then decided to record a demo to hand out in the local hardcore scene. John Thomas the uncle of Curran Thomas recorded BTR's first demo which was a live recording on a simple four track. The "Roots of Chaotic Disorder" demo was recorded on 11/21/1996 and later remastered at Electric Reels Studio in pleasant valley NY.
