<div>'''ID Under''' was a punk band led by guitarist/vocalist [[Douglas Ward]] from [[1985]] until [[1989]]. In their lifetime, the group released one 12" EP and one LP. Their debut EP, ''The Lords Of Nothing'', was the second release for [[Underdog Records]], a label which Douglas Ward would have a hand in running for much of its existence. [[Mike Joo]] and [[Steve Holtz]] played bass and drums, respectively, for the group's first show, after which the group featured [[Eric Van Keuren|Eric "Skinner" Van Keuren]] on the drums and Ward's girlfriend, [[Audrey Shaw]], on bass. Shaw departed in [[1987]] after her and Douglas's romance ended and she was replaced [[Zac Conway]], who was also a member of the suburban act [[Target]]. <br />
<br />
Following ID Under's break up, Douglas continued to play a big role in Chicago's punk scene, helping to run [[Underdog Records]] and writing for its fanzine, as well as performing with the bands 8-Bark, V. Reverse, Fourth Rotor, and 97-shiki.<br />

<div>'''Douglas Ward''' has been an important player in Chicago's punk scene for many years. Doug first appeared in [[1986]] with his band [[ID Under]]. Their first EP, ''The Lords of Nothing'', was the 2nd release ever on [[Underdog Records]]. [[ID Under]] broke up in [[1989]] and that same year Doug played guitar with [[Screeching Weasel]] for some local shows and appeared on a few compilation tracks, as well. For his work with [[Screeching Weasel]], he has been credited as "Doug Ward", "Doug ID Under", and, strangely, "Douglas C Wonderful".<br />
<br />
Throughout the '90s, Doug continued to play music, leading both 8-Bark, V. Reverse, and Fourth Rotor, who announced their break-up in the fall of [[2006]]. His current band is 97-shiki.<br />
<br />
One of Doug's most important contributions, though, was his work with [[Underdog Records]]. In [[1989]], Doug, along with [[Ben Weasel]], [[Jughead]], and [[Russ Forster]], turned [[Underdog Records|Underdog]] into a collective-run label, (previously, Russ had been the sole owner). Doug would be the only continuous member of the collective until it ended in [[1997]]. From [[1989]] until [[1997]], [[Underdog Records|Underdog]] would release dozens of records by local punk bands, run a record distro, and publish the "Underdog Zine" fanzine.<br />
