They are reported to be the first band in Seattle to take the traditional punk rock riff, and play it slower so it's more of a gritty, grinding sound than the more raucous nature of regular punk rock[1]. Despite gaining a lot of criticism from the punk rock purists of the area, the bands performances are generally regarded as legendary, with rumours of psychedelic elements which caused Black Flag's Henry Rollins to label them the "punk rock Hawkwind"[2], and perhaps even more impressively inspiring Pearl Jam's Stone Gossard to play guitar[3]. It is perhaps not surprising then that the first of Gossard's bands to gain recognition - Green River - used the same grinding, slowed-down, punk rock riffage.

Around this time, the Seattle music industry was still young, and the indie labels which helped propel bands from that area into stardom in later years had yet to come into fruition. It is for this reason that despite numerous attempts at recordings, Ten Minute Warning never took off and split in 1984 without leaving any evidence that they ever existed. Which left the likes of Green River and Soundgarden to become known as the founders of what later became known as "grunge", with Ten Minute Warning effectively erased from history. The band members went their seperate ways, as mentioned before, Greg joined Mother Love Bone. Paul played in a band called Meddaphysical. David moved to India to learn yoga. And Duff moved to Los Angeles, where he became bass player in a local act called Guns N' Roses. 1984 (MCMLXXXIV) was a leap year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

And that was it... until Duff left Guns N' Roses in 1997 and moved back to Seattle, where he met with many of his old friends, including Stone Gossard. It was him telling them how great they used to be, that encouraged the members of Ten Minute Warning to reunite that year, with new vocalist Christopher Blue replacing a "very unavailable" Steve Varewolf. It was at this time that the band finally recorded an album - nine tracks including two new versions of songs originally recorded by The Fartz (Is This The Way? and Buried), and also the original version of Mezz, which was later re-recorded for Duff's unreleased solo album, Beautiful Disease. 1997 (MCMXCVII) was a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar. ... The Fartz were one of the first well known Hardcore bands from Seattle, Washington. ... Beautiful Disease is a solo album by Velvet Revolver- and Ex-Guns N Roses bassist Duff McKagan. ...
