			*In a 2024 podcast interview with [[Jughead]], [[No Empathy]]'s [[Marc Ruvolo]] recounted how the group's debut LP, ''[[Nothing Less Than Nothing At All]]'' ended up being the band's best-selling record and ended up all over the world due to Walkthrufyre's distribution connections. Marc was personally very dissatisfied with the record and he attempted to buy every used copy that came into [[Reckless Records]]. This had an unintended side-effect of causing Reckless to raise the price of used copies since they were selling so well. Marc also recalled that when the label collapsed, the owners disappeared with everything related to the record, including the original artwork that was drawn by [[Guy Aitchison]].
