   About Six and Violence
From Wikipedia.org: Established in Queens New York in 1985, Six and Violence is a musical group in the genre of New York Hardcore. The band appeared at the seminal club CBGBs and other punk and heavy metal related venues in the New York area between 1985 and 2005. The band released 2 full length albums and a series of demos, singles, and EPs throughout their career. Six and Violence is also featured on hardcore and punk compilations from the 1980s and 1990s.

The band consisted of 6 members with line-up changes over 20 years. The most consistent line-up consisted of Kurt Stenzel on vocals, Paul Gazzara on vocals (deceased February 9, 2005), Dave Miranda on drums, Ray Amico on guitar, J. Garino on bass, and Kenneth Kim on cymbals. The live presentation consited of two vocalists, as well as two percussionists who played drums and cymbals in a standing position. The band can be seen in action in a 30 minute television appearance on the Uncle Floyd Show from 1987.

Six and Violence is notable for being unorthodox within the genre of punk and hardcore, and achieved national college radio play based on comedic elements with songs such as "Golf" and "Planet of the Apes". Six and Violence is also known for musical departures more associated with progressive rock and Jethro Tull frontman Ian Anderson guested on 1990's Lettuce Prey album.

Lyical content varied from the silly "Hamburger Hairdo" to the philosophical, "All my Best Friends are Turning into their Dads" as well as the controversial “I’m Gonna Kick God’s Ass” and “Death to Guidos”.

The band continues to get seasonal radio play with their Christmas single “Xmas Pigs”, an anti-consumerist spin on the Black Sabbath classic “War Pigs”. Their 1991 anti-Gulf War single “Armageddon Outta Here” found relevance the second U.S. war in Iraq.

Six and Violence is also notable for their use of props and costumes on stage, including men in gorilla suits, women dressed as nuns, and the demolition of television sets and destroying drums with chainsaws. The band was also known for throwing golf balls, hamburgers and bananas at the audience, and often engaged in dangerous stage antics.

Six and Violence shared members with bands such as Ludichrist and Norman Bates and the Showerheads. Six and Violence was peripherally associated with bands of the New York Hardcore genre such as Sick of it All, Agnostic Front, Cro-Mags, and thrash metal bands such as Anthrax, Nuclear Assault, and Crumbsuckers. In the 1990s the band was associated with New York band No Redeeming Social Value and released two split singles with them, including one with Japanese band Romantic Gorilla.

The full length records are "Lettuce Prey" (Fist Records 1990) and "Petty Staycheck " (Striving For Togetherness Records 1995). Fist records is notable as having released the first Warzone record, and Striving For Togetherness pioneered a resurgence in New York hardcore with releases by Vision of Disorder, Shutdown, and 25taLife.

Today members of the band continue to make music with projects such as The Magic Elf, Tyrannosaurus Ray, Rock of J.Braltar, Reak & Stump, and Cookin’ With Kurt. Guitarist Ray Amico is road manager for many established musical acts including his childhood heroes Devo.

In 2005 Six and Violence was featured on the soundtrack to the Eidos video game “Backyard Wrestling Vol. 2” as well as a number of independent films. Despite only two full length recordings, the band retains a loyal cult following in the U.S. and abroad.
