Impact Unit

They were a Boston hardcore band that never released anything during their tenure, but the demos they recorded in '82 (My Friend-The Pit featuring the timeless love tune "I'd Eat Your Shit") were released in '89 in Germany. They were then issued in the States after Impact Unit lead singer Dicky Barrett gained fame as a Mighty Mighty Bosstone. Sam McAffee kept active in the Boston scene throughout the 80s and 90s playing guitar in Feeding Frenzy, Chloe(also fronted chloe) and bass for Six Server and playing drums in Sea Biscuit. He was also the first roadie for DYS and used to stay at their band house "Chiswick House" along with Dickie who stayed there on weekends, when he came into Boston from Norwood, when there were shows. Ross Luongo went on to play guitar for DYS(now jerry's kids)) because they stole him from Impact Unit (the bastards!-sam). Impact Unit practiced in the same space as DYS. They were part of the Boston Crew and so were the FU's,
