The group was founded in early 1989 by guitarist Adam Nathanson, bassist Neil Burke , vocalist Sam McPheeters , and drummer John Guzman, who was replaced in early rehearsals by a drummer named George. George’s tenure was also brief, and he was replaced after a single show by Nigel Schreiber in July 1989. This lineup recorded a demo cassette and a track for the Murders Among Us 7-inch compilation released on McPheeters’ Vermiform Records label before Burke and Schreiber left the group later that year. Born Against would continue to be plagued by rhythm section fluctuation throughout its existence.
