Going for a harder edge and a sound to go along with their reputation for being 86'd from most reputable clubs in Austin, the name Belligerent 86 was taken.

Craig, Mark & Matt would move on to form Belligerent Intent ( a band Craig had been attempting to form on and off for the last 10yrs since the passing of the guitarist Darren Rodeghiero)...
