Biography

SoCal punks F-Minus comprised singer/guitarist Brad Logan, guitarist Sarah Lee, bassist Jennifer Johnson, and drummer Chris Lagerborg. The group debuted in 1998 with a pair of 7" EPs -- the Hellcat release Failed Society and Pelado Records' Won't Bleed Me -- featuring 19 songs spread between them. Next entering the studio with producer Tim Armstrong of Rancid, F-Minus -- swapping Lee for guitarist Erica Daking and Lagerborg for drummer John Guerra -- released their self-titled full-length debut in the fall of 1999. Suburban Blight followed two years later. Shifts inside the band continued. Bass player Joe Steinbrick and drummer Adam Zuckert solidified F-Minus' lineup by 2002, allowing the band to finally head into the studio for a third album. F-Minus joined producer Steve Albini for the anxious Wake Up Screaming, which appeared on Epitaph in March 2003. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide

F-Minus was a hardcore punk band formed in 1995 in Huntington Beach, California. Started by Jen Johnson and Brad Logan. F-Minus was known for their dueling male and female vocals in songs that were sometimes as short as 12 seconds ("Fuck You O.C."). One of their noted primary influences is Nausea, where the vocal stylings no doubt descend from. Before breaking up in 2004, their last album was recorded by Steve Albini. Throughout their career, they covered such bands as Antidote, Black Randy and the Metro Squad, 7 Seconds, Negative Approach, and Agnostic Front. Brad Logan currently runs his own record label Blacknoise, and is also member of the New York ska punk outfit Leftöver Crack.[1] Jen Johnson currently is the designer and owner of clothing Label E.C. Star, and also is a member of the California band Ammunition Affair.
