There’s a poignant moment in Do You Remember? 15 Years of the Bouncing Souls, in which members of the New Jersey band recall their first conversation with the Stern brothers of Youth Brigade/BYO Records. They were, it seems, more excited to have talked to the Sterns on the telephone than to have found out that they’d be joining the legendary BYO Records roster.

After talking to Shawn Stern, vocalist and guitarist for the band as co-owner (with his brother Mark) of BYO Records, I can understand where the excitement came from. All those bands you’ve heard about, or seen video of, or seen reunion tours – he was there the first time. And he was in one of them! We talked for a while about the early LA scene, how BYO could’ve signed bands like The Offspring, Sublime, AFI, and Jawbreaker, and about the brand new documentary as well its adjacent compilation and book.
