Know What?

I don't know much about Conviction beyond the seven inch being on Watermark. And since it's on Watermark, it's a "must own."

I'm sure someone can fill in the blanks.

Conviction. Mike. Used.

Jim Winters fame. He went on to be a fill-in guitar player for Earth Crisis, even losing his spleen in the process when their van crashed and Jim went flying out a window. Would later play with Starkweather, Turmoil (with Conviction drummer Jon Pushnik), as well as The Promise. Also recorded bass on the Believer "Dimensions" record. A truly gifted human being... in more ways than one.

He also, most recently, played with Kiss It Goodbye at the Rev 25 shows.

He was the one person I thought was in the band (I think the sleeve only has first names).

I grew up in Southeast Pennsylvania and somehow missed their entire existence.

Side note: I played guitar for Despair on the first Euro tour.

RE: Believer - Dimensions.
Had my hands (literally) on most of the leads and i think at least 60% of those riffs were things i came up with, excluding that Trilogy thing but... I guess if you're into one you may like the other.
