Antidote outside of CBGB’S - 1999
Jake Kolatis, guitarist of The Casualties, revived his early 2000’s punk label earlier this year with a new installment of the ‘Punx Unite’ series. The street punk brainchild of Kolatis, Charged Records kicked off in 1998, and released over 30 titles in the span of a decade before going on hiatus in 2008. The most notable releases from Charged include the four part 'Punx Unite' series, which showcased a very specific subset of spikey-haired 77/82 UK punk and oi inspired bands that were taking shape in the late 1990's and early 2000’s. In addition to the Punx Unite comps, Charged Records also released full length albums from Antidote, Street Brats, and Endless Struggle, among other punk heavy hitters.
