Lessons In Living

About Me


Native to Nutley, Something About Champions storm the indie music scene with intensity never experienced before. With influences ranging from Lagwagon to Thrice, this trio fuses power punk with hard rock creating a wildly eclectic sound trademark of Something About Champions. Tunes such as Yesterday’s Remakes and Kingdom Hearts combine heavy hitting guitar progressions with flowing melodies that even your grandparents will rock to. In late January '08 Something About Champions indurated its final lineup with Angelo Ismaelito on drums (formally of Goodwill Kill and Blame Ivan), Rich O’Connell on guitar/vocals, Keith on guitar/vocals (formally of Felix Frump). and Mikey Anger on bass/backing vocals (formerly of Quarter Inch Fuse and Street Crime). Rich and Keith’s style of song composition combined with Angelo’s dynamic song arrangements and Mikey's solid low end prove to diversify the bands sound distinguishing them from all the rest. Never forgetting where they came from, Something About Champions will always stay true to their roots.Keep lookout for show listings and anticipate the release of their debut LP titled “Lessons in Living” sometime in spring ’08.
