Insight 23 were an American

Perception Rek.[1]

History

Insight 23 was formed in Los Angeles by vocalist Blayne Alexander, Brittain Alexander, and John Whatley. In 1994, the band debuted with two cassette releases for Perception Rek: the single Disease/The Hurt Hate Lies and full-length album Obsess.[2] The following year Insight 23 sent a promotional package of demos to Fifth Colvmn Records, who had just reported securing a distribution deal with Caroline Records, and the label reissued their debut album on compact disc.[3][4] A video was filed for the album's titletrack by Alexander's boss, who was credited as MarkB and at that time employed as a creative director for a company. The band filmed two more videos for "Disease" and "Two More Reasons". In 1996 a gun was pulled on vocalist Blayne Alexander at The Unicorn in Milwaukee which caused the band to cancel several tour dates.[5]

The band recorded new material in the form of the songs "Backwash" and "EnemyMind" and released it respectively on 1995's Forced Cranial Removal and 1996's World War Underground by

Jesus Christ Porno Star" for Songs From the Hydrogen Bar: A Tribute to Chemlab in 2007.[10]
