Music Video LinksArtist Biography
Available in:
1) Strait Up was a hardcore band from Columbia, South Carolina. They were Chris McLane on drums & vocals, Matt McCarty on bass & vocals and Scott Dempsey on guitar & vocals. They released a 10 song demo cassette in late 1990, a split 7" with Unherd in 1991 on Funky Young Records, and appeared on two compilations; The Please No Profanity CD on Closet Normal, and the In Our Blood 12" on Reform. Both were released in 1992. Myspace Page. 2) Strait Up was an album released by Snot in 2000 (the album has been credited to Various Artists and Strait Up as well). Originally intended to be Snot's sophomore album, for release in 1999, plans were drastically changed when lead singer Lynn Strait died in a car accident on December 11, 1998. Though 11 tracks themselves had been recorded, Strait had only recorded vocals for one of them by the time of his death. By 1999, Snot's surviving members decided to finish the vocal-less tracks by getting musicians from other popular bands (many of which were friends of the band) to write lyrics and sing on the unfinished tracks. The finished album was released on November 7, 2000, featuring the 11 tracks, a spoken word tribute from Ozzy Osbourne, another spoken word piece by Strait himself, and Snot's last recorded song with their original lineup. Snot released a live album in 2002, but have otherwise disbanded. "Starlit Eyes" was the track recorded that featured Lynn's vocals. It can be found on Snot's album Alive, under the name "Choose What?" "Angel's Son" was the single from the album. It received strong airplay on rock radio, and was later re-recorded by all the members of Sevendust for their album Animosity. A live acoustic version of the song can also be found on Sevendust's album Southside Double-Wide: Acoustic Live The hidden track on the album starts 3:13 into the song. The number 313 seems to be significant to the band in some way, as there was a song called "313" on Get Some, and John Fahnestock's clothing company is called Three Thirteen Merchandise. Unlike most albums that are in tribute of someone, most of the tracks on Strait Up cannot be classified as ballads. Snot never specialized in slower, mellower songs, so all the tracks sound like typical nu-metal music. However, mellower vocal sections are seen in the choruses of many of the tracks.
