		Nevertheless, Lindberg concedes that Thirsk's state of mind at the time of his departure from the band was a bit shaky.
		In other words, they came of age at the epicenter of the then-burgeoning Eighties SoCal hardcore revolution, and their participation in the region's skate and surf movements introduced them to a subculture dominated by bored white middle-class teenagers who loved the loud, aggressive music that was being made by kids from precisely the same background.

		Using Californian hardcore as a foundation, the group incorporated funk-metal and skate-punk into their sound, developing a sound that functioned as edgy, post-punk frat rock -- it was speedy and occasionally stupidly catchy, with heavy, propulsive rhythms and positive, optimisitic lyrics that stood in pointed contrast to their grunge-addled peers.
		Six months after the group's debut was released, Lindberg left the group due to his frustration with the band's lack of motivation and the lack of security in rock groups.
		Thirsk moved to vocals and his bass teacher, Randy Bradbury, filled in on bass.

		While many might not consider Thirsk an important member of the mainstream rock world, the bassist was essential in creating the music and band that became known as Pennywise.
		The reworked version, with a huge backing chorus, has different lyrics dedicated to Thirsk, and it is rare that the punk band shows such a high level of emotion in the song.
		Especially when Thirsk's brother grabs the mic and his cracking voice shouts: While you were here fun was neverending/Laugh a minute only the beginning/Jason my brother this one's for you.

		His ghost is clearly present throughout the album as singer Jim Lindbergh does not let a single song go by without questioning Thirsk's death in some form.
		Randy Bradbury, the new bassist and longtime friend of Thirsk, fits perfectly, and Fletcher Dragge's driving guitar style burns from the opening notes of "Fight Till You Die" all the way to the album's end.
