About Me

In late 2006 Tyler K. and Brett S.owners of faster faster records wanted to start a band that played fast hardcore punk with elements of hardcore punk. When tyler came over to brett's house to write songs tipher and tom were hanging out with brett. tom coincedentally played drums so then the trio began to jam but then tyler noticed that tipher was bored as hell so he said "let's get this guy on bass" and then the group decided on the name media pigs. after the first practice tom didnt care enough to devote time to the band so he was out of the band. after several drummerless practices nate joined on drums. the band's sound became more full and mature. mike joined shortly after nate taking photos and recording the band. we are anti racist anti homophobic anti ageist and anti bush..we then decided to mature our sound by getting rid our singer. we dont really know what were doing know. bands we have shared the stage with: nightime dealers the naked skanks the living wrecks granada Needle-Gun The SKAnarchists The John Hardy Boys Chelsea Graveyard and the screams at midnight Rustbuckit(ex Gov. Issue, Black market baby) Low Class Trauma Trash Camp Wild and crazy kids Kids of the black hole THE TWATS Animale(ex Leftover Crack, Inquisition, Molotov Cocktail, Stockyard Stoics) The Misspoken the RipOuts Ginger Coyote and the White Trash Debutantes We are the seahorses dazzlestorm anyone else who played Freakers Ball.
