 NASD: Basic First Aid
Do not move the limbs or body of a victim with a suspected spinal injury unless the accident scene is such that there is imminent danger of further injury or unless it is necessary to establish breathing.
If the victim must be moved, keep the neck and torso of the body as straight as possible and pull in a direction that keeps the victim’s spine in a straight line.
Choking occurs when food or a foreign object obstructs the throat and interferes with normal breathing.

Choking Victim, like countless other bands incorporating punk into their music in the 1990s, owes an obvious debt to pioneering punk bands from the late 1970s and early 1980s.
Choking Victim, a New York squatter band, claims that "there's some beautiful art associated with Satan" and employs pentagrams, skulls, upside-down crosses and swastikas made of U.S. currency as cover and insert art, implying a strictly hard-edged punk or metal sound.
Choking Victim's mishmash of jumbled musical styles-some popular, others not-will be nationally distributed by Epitaph Records, a major independent label.

 Choking Victim - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Choking Victim was an influential ska/punk/hardcore (what they call "Crack Rocksteady," a slight satire on the Rocksteady style of music which Choking Victim's style often included) band from New York City in the 1990s.
The band became hometown (C-squat in the Lower East Side of Manhattan where they squatted) legends for their innovative music and highly political lyrics.
Choking Victim broke up after the first day of recording for their first full-length LP, No Gods, No Managers, but the recordings from that one day were enough to make a solid album.

 Choking Victim - Music Downloads - Online
Bio: New York City ska-punks Choking Victim, whose members lived together out of various squats on Manhattan's Lower East Side, comprised singer/guitarist Scott Stergin (aka Stza or Sturgeon), bassist Alec, and drummer Skwert, though the band also included guitarist Ezra, bassists Sascha Scatter and Shayne, and drummer John Dolan, among others, during their time together.
Stza and Alec originally formed the band as No Commerical Value in the early '90s, the band eventually evolving into Choking Victim.
Choking Victim broke up after the first day of recording for the album, but fortunately, they'd gotten enough songs out of the session to release the record anyway.

 ROCKZONE.COM: Reviews: Left Over Crack -"Rock The 40oz."
Since then, Choking Victim have split into 2 bands, one of which is Leftover Crack, formed with singer Stza.
I can't wait for the new album "shoot the kids in school" to come out this fall (most likely on hellcat records,although stza the singer says its not for certain)because these guys are great and I will take anything i can get my hands on of their merch.
This album has it all from your catchy ska punk, to your serious political-satanic massages, to samples from the movie "don't be a menace to south central while drinking juice in the hood," samples placed their because the band is of the opinion its the best movie ever made.

 Punknews.org | Choking Victim - Crack Rock Steady (1900)
First of all, the Crack Rock Steady demo by Choking Victim has a terrible sound, it sounds like a home made recording, I bet it is.
In my personal opinion this is a great release, it has a really shitty sound but shows the class in Choking Victim's musical and intellectual talent, awesome lyrics and impressive bass lines by sasha.
This is the perfect release for a real Choking Victim fan, it's have a very rotten sound but it shows what Choking Victim really is, too bad this band no longer exists.

Lo comes down with pneumonia, and the band has to cancel 3 weeks worth of shows; the rest of the year is spent recording demos of the material that would comprise the Geffen album (some of these demos have circulated as the Bedroom Tapes).
Eventually the record label, the band, and the bands management all have a falling out with Dickinson over money and over the mix, culminating with Dickinson threatening Lo that he would drown the master reels in the Mississippi River; eventually the album is mixed in June in New York by Nick Didia and Lo.
In the bands longest period off the road of its career, GSW spends some two months in the loft space, rehearsing, arranging, and sorting through the large amount of new (and old) material under consideration for the new record.

However for all the attention the band garners they have attacked many relevant issues that others often avoid, particularly homophobia in the punk scene.

After three singles and lord knows how many years of squatting on the East Coast, Choking Victim has finally released an album on Epitaph.
Of course, this doesn't mean that they'll be off the streets anytime soon, but at least they'll have that occasional royalty check coming in to pay for their beer money.
The addition of many recommendations of smoking crack rock -- whether or not this is serious was never really determined -- makes Choking Victim the antithesis of every ska-punk band out there.

 The History of God Street Wine
The band decides having a lone trumpet player without a horn section doesnt make much sense, and has an amicable parting with Howard, who goes on to form funk-jazz ensemble The Question and release Mystery Rodent (featuring one Lo Faber composition) on his own label later in the year.
The band spends the summer playing weekend dates, and rehearsing intensively with the goal of getting back to a more improvisational, jam-oriented show in the style of their earlier days.
The band kicks off '98 with the very successful Shindig Tour, in which acoustic renditions of GSW songs are mixed with the guys' favorite covers, the band performs seated on bar stools, and numerous audience guests sit ion with the band onstage.

NYC's finest squat/punk band, Choking Victim, plays angry pissed off punk rock at breakneck speed with some catchy ska beats thrown in for good measure.
It has the infamous No Gods/No Managers Choking Guy on it along with another guy hanging from a noose.
A little hellcat records cat is hardly noticeable, and moving towards the bottom you see: "support the zapatistas in chipas (they need ammo!) and of course all the squats worldwide." Band members names are replaced with weird symbols and apparantly the new bass player's name is white devil.

 Leftover Crack: Mediocre Generica Aversion.com Review
Even if the band didn't proudly advertise its leftover status in its name and in its liner notes, it'd be pretty easy to guess this album was spottily thrown together from sub-par material.
Whether the band shoots for third-rate skacore in the Op Ivy tradition ("Gay Rude Boys Unite"), a punk/metal mouth-breather festival ("The Good, the Bad and the Leftover Crack"), hardcore ("NC") or searing East Coast-style punk ("Homeopathy"), Leftover Crack can't get over its own punk-assed self enough to pull together a good song in any style.
While the band's lack of quality and its pu-pu platter style sampler from several styles is sure to make this record a difficult listen, it's almost enraging that anyone would have the gall to issue this.

INDK, much like Choking Victim, broke up while recording their debut full-length, Kill Whitey!, which came out on Go Kart Records.

 The Code - Press
The Code are not merely a Choking Victim tribute band.
The band does venture occasionally into street ska and hardcore ska, but for the most part plays a fucking great variation on hardcore punk rock, which for some reason is heavily reminiscent of 'How Far Shallow Takes You' era Gob (to translate, Gob before Gob sucked).
Lyrically, the band seems to focus on injustice and other punk issues, think Anti-Flag crossed with Operation Ivy (whose lyrics receive plenty of nods throughout the album) and you've got a pretty good idea.

Leftöver Crack is a band that rose from the remains of the seminal ska/ punk band Choking Victim, which released a small number of very-low budget albums in the mid-90's.
By the turn of the century, LöC was formed with a higher production value than anything attached to Choking Victim, and new topics were discussed.
The line-up of Leftover Crack changes fairly often, drawing on members of other NYC punk bands such as The Stockyard Stoics and The X-Possibles, with Stza, Alec and Ezra the only completely permanent members (Though Ezra was absent for most of the few 2005 gigs due to a blood infection).

As far as bands go, there's us, Rock City Morgue, The Pallbearers, Maniac… Not only that, but there's at least two production companies… as well as the strong tradition of haunted houses and ghost tours for which New Orleans is famous.
