Neil Perry was a screamo band from New Jersey. Jon Marinari played bass and vocals in the influential New Jersey screamo band You and I. After they split, he would join Neil Perry in the same capacity, along with ex-members from Red All Over.[1] Neil Perry released several records in the next four years, mostly with Level Plane records.[2] The band broke up in 2002. In early 2003 they recorded four new songs that would be their final recordings, and are featured on their discography release, Lineage Situation, released by Level Plane records in July 2003.[3] The release contained the band's entire 40 song discography, and a second disc includes a 35 minute video of tour and live footage. Some of the new material had a post-rock structure to it.[4]
After Neil Perry, band members would go on to play in bands such as Hot Cross, Joshua Fit For Battle, A Life Once Lost, Superstitons of the Sky, The Now, Get Fucked, and Welcome the Plague Year.
