Assfactor 4 was a hardcore punk band from Columbia, South Carolina formed by two members of Tonka (Jay and Alex) and two members of Unherd (Eric and Kevin). They formed in Fall 1992 and broke up in late 1997. Assfactor 4's sonic approach drew heavily from San Diego's early-1990's group Heroin, but their song structure was notably more akin to 1980's thrash and hardcore, placing Assfactor 4 in a unique position within the DIY hardcore scene of the era. Their contemporaries in the southeast U.S. included Columbia's Eurich and Premonition, Raleigh, NC's Rights Reserved; Rock Hill, SC's Salvo Rain, Wilmington, NC's Cornelius; Florida's Palatka, End of the Century Party, and Asshole Parade; and Richmond, VA's Action Patrol. HeartattaCkzine readers voted Assfactor 4 "Coolest Band to Hang Out With" in 1995. Assorted Porkchops has planned on releasing a discography in the near future.
