SEVERIN Acid To Ashes Rust To Dust 1992
Artist Biography
by Ron DePasquale
Before fronting the Capitol City Dusters, Alec
Bourgeois held the mic for Severin, an early-'90s D.C. indie rock band
that featured Gray Matter guitarist Mark Haggerty. Bourgeois founded
Superbad Records, which co-released three Severin singles with Dischord
Records. The band's textured, anxious sound got some West Coast
recording on a single for Sub Pop. One full-length, Acid to Ashes, Dust
to Rust, appeared on Dischord. The band, presumably named afer Steve
Severin of Siouxsie and the Banshees, broke up in 1993. Drummer Alex
Daniels reunited with his old bandmates from Swiz to form Sweetbelly
Freakdown, and bassist Eugene Bogan moved on to Rummy and Birdshot.
