Ground Zero

Ground Zero was a 1980s hardcore / thrash band from Minneapolis, formed by Taras "Terry" Ostroushko (vocals, guitar), James "Jamie" Ronnei (bass) and Dave Evenhouse (drums). They only released two albums, 'Ground Zero' (1984) and 'Pink', both on Reflex Records, an early 1980s U.S. punk /hardcore label based out of St. Paul, MN that released records by Hüsker Dü, Articles Of Faith, and Minutemen, amongst others. This label was founded by Terry Katzman and Hüsker Dü to promote bands in the Minneapolis scene, after Twin Tone Records rejected Hüsker Dü's first single in 1979.
