We are 3 good-looking people who decided to get together and be good-looking. We make MUSIC... People listen to this MUSIC... and they say "MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC"...and you know what?
They're right.
After jumping the rio grande on his 2 horse power scooter, young Chris Fowler found out how to make ramen noodles. that was a huge accomplishment, those things had been plaguing him for years. Once he got to Houston, he met a bum who looked like she should've been famous so he gave her $20. At the time he figured "Hey, rich people should stay rich." but then she just spent it on a dimebag and Chris stole it. Needless to say he was higher than a kite for the rest of the day. He was high when he met Austin (hence their friendship) and immediately urinated all over his face. Austin replied "If you dropped your keys you'd bend over too."
Chris didnt think that made any sense at all.
And since he met austin they have become the best of friends. He has met new people that he probably would've never known existed before. Austin also taught him how to speak English.
And now they are in a band (anti-climax) with the aforementioned hobo, Kristen. and i should say they are going to be bigger than anna nicole's breasts when she was pregnant.
after searching the world far and wide, we've finally come to find that music can be divided into three basic categories. some music comes from the heart, some from the soul. punk comes from your balls. anti-climax comes from all three. that's what makes us great.
it would be cool if you told us we made love to your ears. we like to make love to your ears. we spend most of our time hugging and crying. We get a lot of fan mail from fat camps. I don’t know why. Probably because we're delicious. to all concert booking agencies, we would love to play the Olsen twins living room. Not because we are fans of the Olsens, but because we hear the woodwork in their living room is beautiful and we would love to know if the joinery was Chinese or European.
We understand you don't really care. Not just about our band, but just in general. I know I don't. Yeah thats right, I'm indifferent which makes me cool. Will someone please hang out with me now? I prefer pitty friendships with fat girls for the most part. They understand feelings.
We've already written a buttload of new songs to play for your entertainment, and you can catch them if you come to one of our shows. you might hate them. Don't listen to them. Or maybe you will love them. Either way I'm still a lonely vagabond living in my grandmas attic drinking whiskey out of an old golfers boot. but maybe you should listen to it because my voice is as sweet as ginger bread milk... if there were such a thing. And if there was.. im sure drinking it would turn you gay. So just do the math. My voice turns you gay. But isn't that the reason we listen to music anyways? I've thought long and hard about this, and the answer is, no...
Timeline
October 2006
Freshman Austin wants to start a band. A pop-punk trio in honor of blink-182. Chris says yes. The myspace page is made and the search for a drummer begins.
Late 2006 - Early 2007
"Mass Lingerie Theft," a demo, is put together for the sake of material and nothing else. The sound is eclectic and undeveloped.
June 2007
First practice with Kristen. Magic from the beginning.
September 9, 2007 (Fitzgeralds)
First show. A disaster. But very fun nonetheless.
September 2007 - October 2008
Writing songs and developing sound.
October 25, 2008 (Javajazz)
First show in a very long time. A very different band than before. This was when we began to play shows regularly. We have been working very hard, and it shows. We get paid $120.
November 2008
We record a new demo, "Crippy Can Hardcore Too!" containing songs we have written since mid-2007, recorded by Joey Young. It is intercut by live material.
December 6, 2008 (Fuel)
First headlining show.
December 2008 - March 2009
We continue to play shows regularly, sometimes up to 2 or 3 a month. We begin working on a new, more modern sound that we enjoy more and feel more comfortable with.
March 14, 2009
We record and release "Anti-climax EP" at Dead City Sounds in Houston. It contains 4 songs we have written since our last recording session. We are very happy with the result.
June 28, 2009
The time of this writing. We have since written 2 new songs and plan on a recording session soon.
Just because you're still reading this, we already consider you one of our dearest and closest personal friends. So please keep in touch, okay?
Don't be a stranger.
