Old school American Oi!Core band from Washington D.C. formed in November 1986 by the singer Shawn Garard and guitarist Bill Gerber; a short time later Jimmy Wood joined on bass but he was stabbed to death before the band’s third practice together. Shawn and Bill recruited John Allen on bass and drummer Bryan Kelly (who was in another local band Bill played for called What Happened?) to play a benefit show in Jimmy's memory. The Jimmy Wood Memorial Concert took place on December 14, 1986 at D.C.'s Hung Jury Pub.
This first incarnation of Immoral Discipline played two sets; Bryan stayed on as the bands drummer, later replaced by "Bhatman", and Todd Greene joined the band as a permanent bass player, staying on until the bands end.
In November 1987 Immoral Discipline recorded their first songs on the demo tape "Boots And Braces, Stars And Stripes", with Bill Meeks (of Fort Lauderdale, FL band, Bad Rep) as additional rhythm guitarist, replaced in 1988 by Brian Robinson; this line-up recorded the only records released in the late 80's, the 'Battlefield' E.P. (1988) and 'Immoral Discipline' E.P. (1989):
Shawn Garard: lead vocals
Bill Gerber: lead Guitar
Todd Greene: bass
Brian Robinson: rhythm guitar
"Bhatman": drums
