Identity

Marginal Man was formed in 1983 after the break-up of Artificial Peace, a seminal DC hardcore punk band. Featuring former AP members Steve Polcari, Pete Murray, and Mike Manos, and joined with Kenny Inouye and Andre Lee, Marginal Man released one ep ('identity'), and two lps (Double Image and Marginal Man), along with a couple of appearances on compilations ('alive and kicking', and 'state of the union'). during the band's five and a half year existence they toured north America twice, toured extensively up and down the eEast coast, and played numerous shows in the DC area, culminating in a farewell show on march 24, 1988 with two sold out sets at the 930 club.
