== Background == === Shaft, Roosevelt, Burgundy and Bloodpact (1993–1997) ===

Kirkpatrick's first musical project was a punk band named Shaft in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, which also included guitarist James Glayat.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":0" /><ref name=":692" /> Following Shaft's dissolution, Kirkpatrick and Glayat together joined emotional hardcore band Roosevelt in October 1994.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":692" /> Roosevelt also included vocalist Timothy Shaner, guitarist Justin Shaner, and bass guitarist Christopher Irving; all three had previously played in the hardcore band Platform together.<ref name=":1" />

Roosevelt recorded a six-song demo tape using a four-track recorder in Irving's apartment in late 1994, and began playing shows around Florida.<ref name=":1" /> The band caught the attention of Vero Beach, Florida-based record label Intention Records, which offered the band a spot on an upcoming Various Artists compilation, scheduled to feature such bands as Culture, Tension and Afterall.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":7">{{cite web |last=Julien |first=Alexandre |author-link=Alexander Julien |date=June 28, 2014 |title=Intention Records Interview |url=https://www.abridgedpause.com/intentionrecords |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171228054401/https://www.abridgedpause.com/intentionrecords |archive-date=December 28, 2017 |access-date=December 22, 2021 |website=Abridged Pause Blog}}</ref> In April 1995, Roosevelt recorded four songs with producer Jeremy Staska at Studio 13 in Deerfield Beach, Florida.<ref name=":1" /><ref name="bookletCultureRoosevelt">{{cite book |title=Culture / Roosevelt ''liner notes'' |publisher=Intention Records |year=1995}}</ref><ref name="bookletRoosevelt">{{cite book |title=Roosevelt ''liner notes'' |publisher=Boxcar Records |year=1996}}</ref> After sending one of the songs to Intention Records, the band found out that Culture was the only other band to send in material,<ref name=":7" /><ref name=":42" /> so the Various Artists compilation was transformed into a split 7-inch vinyl, released in May 1995.<ref>{{Cite book |last=McClard |first=Kent |url=http://archive.org/details/heartattack_7 |title=HeartattaCk 7 (Aug 1995) |publisher=HeartattaCk |year=1995 |edition=7 |location=Goleta, California, United States |publication-date=August 1995 |pages=28 |language=en |chapter=Record Reviews |chapter-url=https://archive.org/details/heartattack_7/page/n27 |via=Internet Archive}}</ref>

After playing many more shows throughout Florida, Roosevelt was signed to Melbourne, Florida-based record label Boxcar Records, which quickly made plans to release the three remaining songs from the April 1995 recording session as the band's eponymous 7-inch vinyl extended play.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":6">{{Cite web |last=Chadwick |first=Andrew |date=July 9, 2000 |title=Discography |url=http://www.boxcarrecords.com/boxcar.msql?topic=disco |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20000709213753/http://www.boxcarrecords.com/boxcar.msql?topic=disco |archive-date=July 9, 2000 |access-date=July 9, 2022 |website=Boxcar Records}}</ref> The band, however, parted ways in October 1995, months before its second release would arrive from the pressing plant, in January 1996.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":6" />

After Roosevelt's breakup, Kirkpatrick continued playing with Justin Shaner and Timothy Shaner, recruiting David LeBleu for a new indie/emo band named Burgundy.<ref name=":1" /> The band recorded a demo tape using a four-track recorder and played a handful of shows in Florida but parted ways before the end of 1996.<ref name=":1" /> Afterwards, Kirkpatrick briefly relocated to Ann Arbor, Michigan where he joined the startup metalcore band Bloodpact, with members of Earthmover.<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":692" />

=== Culture and As Friends Rust (1997–2000) === {{Main|Culture (American band)|As Friends Rust}}

In September 1997, Kirkpatrick moved to Gainesville, Florida and simultaneously joined established metallic hardcore band Culture and semi-reformed melodic hardcore band As Friends Rust.<ref name=":42" /><ref name=":14" /><ref name=":18" /> The two bands then shared several members, including vocalist Damien Moyal and guitarists Gordon Tarpley and Stephen Looker; Culture additionally included new bass guitarist Christopher "Floyd" Beckham.<ref name=":692" /><ref name=":42" /><ref name=":14" /> With its new line-up, Culture entered Goldentone Studios in Gainesville, Florida to record seven songs with producer Rob McGregor, intended for a release titled ''Reborn of You'', or ''Mike Warden Can Suck It'' (a pun on Judge's ''Chung King Can Suck It'').<ref name=":42" /><ref name=":44">{{Cite web |date=December 29, 1998 |title=Interview with Damien Moyal of As Friends Rust |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUkMS7n8yZY?t=1840 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220702093253/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUkMS7n8yZY |archive-date=July 2, 2022 |access-date=July 2, 2022 |website=Struggle Inside |location=Layenhof, Germany |publication-date=November 13, 2015 |via=YouTube}}</ref> The release was stuck in limbo at Toybox Records and was never properly released until years later.<ref name=":42" /><ref name=":44" /> In September 2012, Eulogy Recordings, Ghetto Josh Records and New Ethic Record Co-Op co-released the compilation of previously unreleased material, ''From the Vaults: Demos and Outtakes 1993–1998'', which included the songs from ''Reborn of You''.<ref>{{cite web |last=Arnold |first=Alex |date=June 12, 2012 |title=Culture to issue collection of unreleased songs |url=https://lambgoat.com/news/18499/culture-to-issue-collection-of-unreleased-songs/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120616015207/https://lambgoat.com/news/18499/culture-to-issue-collection-of-unreleased-songs/ |archive-date=June 16, 2012 |access-date=December 30, 2021 |website=Lambgoat |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=Thomas |date=January 1, 2013 |title=Culture - From The Vault : Demos & Outtakes 1993-1998 |url=https://www.punkrocktheory.com/music_reviews/culture-vault-demos-outtakes-1993-1998 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201128170235/https://www.punkrocktheory.com/music_reviews/culture-vault-demos-outtakes-1993-1998 |archive-date=November 28, 2020 |access-date=December 30, 2021 |website=Punk Rock Theory |language=en}}</ref>

In November–December 1997, Culture was booked for a month-long tour of Europe with American punk rock band Gang Green, but was kicked off when the latter objected to playing shows with a straight-edge band.<ref name=":42" /> Culture instead performed at the Chicago Hardcore Festival in Chicago, Illinois and Gainesvillefest in Gainesville, Florida in December 1997, and did a series of mini-tours up the East Coast and Midwest of the United States during January–February 1998.<ref name=":42" />

In early 1998, Looker and Kirkpatrick wrote a handful of As Friends Rust songs together between Culture tours, but the band came to a halt when Looker quit both As Friends Rust and Culture to join Morning Again, moving to Coral Springs, Florida in March 1998.<ref name=":14" /> Moyal quickly asked ex-Morning Again and ex-Bird of Ill Omen guitarist Joseph Simmons to join both Culture and As Friends Rust, and recruited Hot Water Music's roadie Kaleb Stewart as bass guitarist and backing vocalist for As Friends Rust.<ref name=":14" /> With an intact line-up, As Friends Rust recorded the song "Home Is Where the Heart Aches" at Goldentone Studios in late March 1998 with McGregor.<ref name=":15">{{cite book |last=Boarts |first=Christine |url=http://archive.org/details/slug_lettuce_56 |title=Slug & Lettuce 56 (1998 Sep-Oct) |date=September 1998 |publisher=Slug & Lettuce |location=Richmond, Virginia, United States |pages=6, 12 |language=en |chapter=Music Reviews: As Friends Rust - The Fists of Time CD |chapter-url=https://archive.org/details/slug_lettuce_56/page/n35 |via=Internet Archive |issue=56}}</ref> "Home Is Where the Heart Aches" was combined with four songs from the band's 1996 demo recording session to make up As Friends Rust's debut extended play, ''The Fists of Time'', released by Good Life Recordings in July 1998.<ref name=":15" /><ref>{{cite book |last=McClard |first=Kent |url=http://archive.org/details/heartattack_20 |title=HeartattaCk 20 (Nov 1998) |publisher=HeartattaCk |year=1998 |location=California, United States |publication-date=November 1998 |pages=24, 60 |language=English |chapter=Record Review: As Friends Rust - The Fists of Time CD |chapter-url=https://archive.org/details/heartattack_20/page/n59 |via=Internet Archive |issue=20}}</ref>

From April–May 1998, Culture was booked for a two-month North American tour with Shutdown, but the band's van broke down on the way to the first show and Culture was unable to continue the tour.<ref name=":42" /> Frustrated by the event, Tarpley quit both As Friends Rust and Culture simultaneously in April 1998, leading Moyal to recruit ex-Morning Again bass guitarist and then-guitarist of Bird of Ill Omen (though the band was on hiatus) Peter Bartsocas as As Friends Rust's new guitarist and co-backing vocalist, and ex-Wounded Knee guitarist Kenneth Brian Sulak for Culture.<ref name=":34">{{cite web |last=Julien |first=Alexandre |author-link=Alexander Julien |date=January 8, 2008 |title=Bird of Ill Omen & Dead {{as written|M|ens' [sic]}} Theory Official Biography |url=http://www.abridgedpause.com/birdofillomenanddeadmenstheory |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200905215321/http://www.abridgedpause.com/birdofillomenanddeadmenstheory |archive-date=September 5, 2020 |access-date=September 5, 2020 |website=Abridged Pause Blog |language=en-US}}</ref><ref name=":42" /> As Friends Rust embarked on a five-week tour of the United States accompanied by Discount and Dillinger Four in June–July 1998.<ref name=":692" /><ref name=":14" /><ref>{{Cite book |url=http://archive.org/details/mrr_182 |title=Maximum Rocknroll 182 |publisher=Maximum Rocknroll |year=1998 |location=San Francisco, California, United States |publication-date=July 1998 |pages=102–104 |language=English |chapter=Discount Interview |chapter-url=https://archive.org/details/mrr_182/page/n101 |via=Internet Archive |issue=182}}</ref> The tour included stops to play at such festivals as More Than Music in Columbus, Ohio, Tin Can Full of Dreams in Lawrence, Massachusetts and Wilkes-Barre Festival in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.<ref name=":692" /><ref name=":14" />
