MAKE OR DESTROY STARTED IN THE YEAR OF 2003 WITH DOM ON BASS, MATT ON GUITAR AND LEAD VOCALS, AND OSCAR ON DRUMS. THEY KEPT PUNK ALIVE IN THE THORNTON/NORTHGLENN AREA OF COLORADO FOR AROUND A YEAR OR SO, PLAYING NUMEROUS SHOWS. EVENTUALLY DOM LEFT THE BAND FOR OTHER REASON'S . BUT WHO WOULD BE ON BASS? THATS WHERE THEY DECIDED TO HIRE LOCAL STREET PUNK "NICK NAUSEOUS" (ORIGINAL MEMBER OF NOTHING HEROIC) BUT NOW IN 3 GRAMS OVER AN OUNCE. LATER THEY PLAYED ALL OVER FROM BASEMENTS TO SUCH PLACES AS THE OGDEN TO NUMEROUS OTHER VENUES. THE BAND WAS PLAYING WELL TOGETHER AND THE REP OF THE BAND STARTED GETTING BIGGER AFTER EVERY SHOW. MAKE OR DESTROY ENDED UP LOOSING THE BASS PLAYER AGAIN! AND WAS THOUGHT TO BE BROKEN UP, UNTIL CHRISCHARGE A FRIEND OF THEIRS DECIDED THAT HE PREFERRED PUNK OVER METAL AND STARTED BEGGING OSCAR TO BRING MAKE OR DESTROY BACK SOMEHOW. OSCAR ALSO HAD TWO BANDS GOING ON AT THAT TIME WHICH HE PLAYED GUITAR FOR EFFSTARDEE, AND THE METAL/HARDCORE BAND REVERENCE ALSO FEATURING MATT. BUT THE QUESTION WAS WHO WOULD BE ON BASS? THIS WHOLE TIME MATT ALREADY KNEW A LITTLE SOMETHING ABOUT PLAYING BASS IN REVERENCE SO THE IDEA CAME UP THAT MATT WOULD PLAY BASS/ LEAD VOCALS AND OSCAR WOULD MOVE TO LEAD GUITAR / VOCALS TO RE-CONTINUE THE HISTORY OF THE BAND! BUT WHO WOULD FILL THE DUTIES OF DRUMS? WELL THE ANSWER WAS THE BEST FRIEND/NEIGHBOR ALEX. ALEX WAS ALSO IN REVERENCE WITH MATT AND OSCAR SO THE REJOINING OF THE BAND WORKED OUT PERFECTLY. THE BAND WENT ON AS A THREE PIECE PLAYING BIGGER AND BETTER SHOWS FOR QUITE A WHILE. EVENTUALLY DOMINIC DELGADO (ORIGINAL MEMBER) REJOINED THE BAND AND NOW PLAYS RHYTHM AND LEAD GUITAR / VOCALS AND HERE YOU HAVE IT THE ORIGINAL AND NEW IMPROVED MAKE OR DESTROY. ENJOY. CHEERS! AND THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ THE HISTORY.

awwww yes....Matty was looking exceptionally dangerous on the bass there at the end. I don't think any of us knew how dangerous he really was.... This was just before he killed a stage diver. If you see him jump like this and you are up front. Run like hell or your dead!
So when is that Reunion show again?lol
All the best to all of you where ever and what ever you are doing...
