GOD, Jimi Hendrix, Flaming Lips, Dinosaur Jr, Screaming Trees, Friends, Family and Loved Ones.
Sounds Like
From the deepest of oceans
darkest of alley-ways,
tear drops while laughing with pain.
Sound leaving the body
hard hitting, critically acclaimed.
Closing doors while the sun still shines
through another one opening.
Almost jumped off a cliff leads
that hurl through the speakers like
the chant of a large game.
Pounding beats that dance in vain,
accidently gracefull rythms that parallel
the brother’s chemistry into controlled chaos............

We formed as a band when Mark was 14, I (Brannon) was 12 and Ian was 13, we lived down the street from Ian and his brother... I heard U2's Sunday Bloody Sunday on the radio. I went home and asked my folks for a snare drum that day. I also asked them to buy Mark a guitar. Mark played guitar, Ian played bass and I played drums. We jammed some cover tunes, made some of our own songs and played parties for 6 years or so until we recorded or 1st LP. In 1989 We recorded at Mirror Image Studios in Gainsville Florida with Bob McPeek using 2 tracks of the 24 tracks available. Leslie Wood (a dear and beautiful friend now with God) helped us press 100 copies on W'SUP Records here in Jacksonville. We recorded our next LP at Mirror Image. Broc's Cabin was released on Sub Pop records in March of 1991. Sub Pop pressed limited LP's, tapes and CD's. We also released a 7" single with Sub Pop in February of 1991. Our third LP called Mariposa was recorded by Jack Endino and was released on Sub Pop records in August of 1992. Limited vinyl LP's, tapes and CD's, We also did a 7" single for Sub Pop in July of 1992. A video was made for Every Color by Sub Pop. Our 4th record back in 1994. We had Daren Bedford on bass and Scott Whittier for the production and engineering. A 7" single which was released in 2006 on Flotation Records. There were 100 copies pressed on GREEN vinyl and 400 copies pressed on BLACK vinyl.We should also mention that Jon Ackerman was in the band playing bass around the late 80's and early 90's.
The so called “OFFICIAL” site for REIN SANCTION in My Space is no longer official, originally this site was created to expose the latest alive work Today has been turn into a personal site.where views and opinions , pictures and comments are far from the artistic point of view of the band itself other than the site creator. I apologize to any one that feel insulted, attacked, pin pointed , disappointed or surprised.
Sincerely Mark Gentry ( founder and member of Rein Sanction )
hey guys absoulutaly lovein the new stuff, use gotta be surpriseing us with sum blue men type quality sounds nxt time around... exellent album that.. love from belfast! peace!!
WOW. I saw RSanction in Columbia in um, 1995, was and still am a huge fan. Glad to hear that you're around and still creating. (love your piece of Guitarrorists)
I just found the "Revolution Come and Gone" Sub Pop compilation on eBay, and after listening to the whole thing through, went back and listened to 'Creel' 32 times in a row. Fucking awesome.
Love the single, very raw like the old days. Is that new stuff from that guy in Florida you?? Doesn't sound like you guys at all. I agree with that other guy's comments.
One of your bassists once found me on Napster in the late nineties. By then I had lost a lot of my CD's and was searching for your tunes. I was able to find 1 guy in Michigan but he hated sharing so when he was out to work his girlfriend would log on and she'd let me download as many as I could. I guess that's how that bassist found me. We talked about Tom Haller for a bit and that was it. Never thought I'd hear from RS again. By now I've been able to get a hold of Broc's Cabin and Mariposa (half.com rules for finding rare CD's.) It's great to find you guys here and I hope to find more of your CD's somewhere...
