Against All Authority began the punk rock fight in 1992, when they decided to form a D.I.Y. band that would really live up to their ideals. Made up of vocalist/bassist Danny Lore, guitarist/vocalist Joe Koontz, trombonist/saxophonist Fin Leavell, and drummer Chris 'Spikey' Goldbach, the band began to record their own singles and albums. When they were ready to tour with their aggressive, often political, punk/ska sound, they chose to book the tour themselves, even going so far as to silk-screen their own shirts for merchandise. Despite their growing popularity in the indie world, they chose to continue doing everything themselves, becoming quite popular with the punk rock elite who began to pay attention to them. They released Destroy What Destroys You before signing to Hopeless Records in the late '90s; their label debut, All Fall Down, came out in 1998. Continuing to use the indie label to spread their anti-authoritarian viewpoints and D.I.Y. values, the Exchange split EP (with The Criminals) released in 1999, 24 Hour Roadside Resistance followed in 2000 and the rarities compilation Nothing New for Trash Like You appeared in 2001. Having done various split releases over the years, Against All Authority got together with Common Rider (Jesse Michaels' post-Operation Ivy project) for a 2005 split before their next full-length, Restoration of Chaos & Order, released in 2006. The band resurfaced in 2021.
