Hot Water Music is an American punk rock band from Gainesville, Florida, formed in 1994. Its debut album, Fuel for the Hate Game, was released in 1997 on Epitaph. The band's name recurs throughout its catalogue of punk rock records, which have remained central to its identity since its formation.

Small Brown Bike is an American emo and post-hardcore band formed in 1996. Its first album, Our Own Wars, came out in 1999 through No Idea Records. Both acts share an American underground lineage, with roots in the independent labels and touring circuits of the late 1990s.
