Poor Decisions

About Me


Poor Decisions is a "Plug & Play Punk 'n Roll" band from Zwolle The Netherlands. The bandmembers are; Niels Meijer, Peter Engels and Marein van Wifferen & Tijs Hardenbol. They started in the summer of 2006 with the idea to play one gig for friends and family. They were going to play covers that night. So they went searching for covers and the first one they learned to play together was “Crucified” a song from “Agnostic Front”. They never played that show with cover because they started to write their own songs very quickly.The name came up by a CD from the band “The Real McKenzies”. A song of their album is called “Pour Decisions” witch was converted to “Poor Decisions”. From pop-punk to hardcore, from ballads to working class streetpunk. The different musical interests are very divers. The influences for the lyrics are taken from day to day life. It can be about having a party or the ups & downs in life, they can express themselves in their lyrics.They have played loads of shows now. Amsterdam, Vriezenveen, Zwolle, Arnhem and many more. They've been on the radio and participated at band contests. Their first demo came out in 2008 and two songs of that demo appeared on an American sampler. On the 25th of September 2009 they released their first EP witch contains 10 songs.The band is very motivated. Poor Decisions is working very hard to let everybody hear their music, to improve their music and to write new songs.
