Whatsoever (1990 - 2001?)

Whatsoever is probably Bellmore's longest running band...although at the time I was filming Bellmore: The Unscene, Whatsoever had ceased being a functioning band.

Whatsoever consists of Scott Buscavage on guitar and vocals, Paul Rohback on bass and vocals, and Steve Johnson on drums – but the three were known to switch up their instruments at times. Through the years the band played all the local clubs (ie: Right Track Inn, Ground Zero, Juke Joint, Bolt, etc.), some of which I'll get to at later dates.


Whatsoever were mainly a studio band, recording in Steve Johnson's basement, a.k.a. Marv Studios – a reference to one of their songs. The band recorded just about every jam they ever had, accumulating hundreds of tapes. Whatsoever independently released three albums; Subject To Change (1994), Forloons (1996), and Leafslide (1998).


Below is Whatsoever's scene from Bellmore: The Unscene, in which Scott, Paul and Steve talk about the band, plus "video historian" Scott Jacobs and Dave Jemmott also add commentary...
