INTERPUNK SMARTPUNK
we were a band for 5+ years. we never got huge but we can’t complain, either. we did some cool stuff. we made some great friends. we did things how we wanted and we never dumbed it down to ship units. we’re proud of what we accomplished as a band and we smile when people list us as in influence. we will miss seeing you on the road, but life goes on. take care and be good to each other. it was a lot of fun. thank you.
