One Life Crew (OLC) is a now defunct, Straight edge, hardcore band originally from Cleveland, Ohio. Members included "Mean" Steve Murad (Vocals), Blaze Tishko (guitar), Aaron Melnick (guitar), John Lockjaw (bass) and Chubby Fresh (drums) After releasing Crime Ridden Society in 1996, the band was dropped from Victory Records after the the band was involved in a brawl with fans at the 1996 Cleveland Hardcore Fest. Victory's stance, which is one that does not condone violence -- particularly directed towards kids at shows by the band onstage -- reflects the decision to drop OLC from the label. Tony Brummel had over 1000 postcards printed and mailed out to Victory's customers, explaining the bands intolerable actions and the label's consequential decision to drop One Life Crew.

The band's sound was reminiscent of Murad's earlier band, Confront. The track Our Fight, which appears on Crime Ridden Society and proclaims an anti-racism message, was originally performed by Confront. Ironically, OLC has been accused by many as being a racist band, due in no small part to the lyrics of the track Pure Disgust, which reflects a right wing stance on immigration issues. OLC, along with Victory, tried to combat this image by releasing t-shirts and hoods that had the Our Fight lyrics printed on the back. Like many Cleveland area hardcore bands, OLC had a strong metal influence.
