Frequent fights at early shows gave them the unwanted and unfounded image of condoning violence. SOIA have suffered from associations with violence. During that time, SOIA continued to tour extensively, including visits to South and Central America.
SICK OF IT ALL LOU KOLLER FULL
Two releases in 1995 on the Lost & Found label - a live album entitled Live in a World Full of Hate and a collection of early recordings, Spreading the Hardcore Reality - bridged the gap between the releases of Scratch the Surface and Built to Last, which was released on the Elektra label. They released Scratch the Surface in 1994 on the Eastwest label, facing accusations of selling out from fans and industry members. SOIA left the Relativity label after the release of the album, citing dissatisfaction with the efforts of the indie label. Just Look Around was instrumental in revitalizing the declining N.Y.C. Craig Setari came on to play bass and to establish the lineup that remained intact into the new millennium.
SOIA recorded and released Just Look Around for Relativity in 1992 with the original lineup intact, and then Cipriano left for good prior to an international tour that brought SOIA to Europe and Japan.
SICK OF IT ALL LOU KOLLER PLUS
Neither Majidi nor Cipriano played with the Koller brothers on the tour preceding the release Eddie Coen substituted on bass, plus E.K. Majidi rejoined to record the We Stand Alone EP, which was released in early 1991 on the Relativity label. Majidi left during the tour to work with Rest in Pieces and was replaced by Max Capshaw.
Following the release of the album, SOIA embarked on their first national tour. clubs like CBGB and building a strong local following, SOIA released, on the Combat label, their first album, Blood Sweat & No Tears, a collection of 19 songs of intense energy, 17 of which clocked in at less than two minutes. SOIA's original lineup - with Lou on vocals, Pete on guitar, Rich Cipriano on bass, and Arman Majidi on drums - released an initial self-titled EP in 1987 on the independent Revelation label. The brothers came up with the band's bluntly expressive name in their parents' basement in 1984. They released Built to Last in early 1997 to critical acclaim and an expanding audience. Sick of It All remained a vital influence on the hardcore scene. While remaining true to their roots and without compromising their style, Sick of It All progressed from an indie band with a strong live following to a major-label act touring with the likes of Helmet and Rancid. Formed by brothers Lou and Pete Koller in the mid-'80s, Sick of It All became a seminal band in the New York City hardcore scene.
