Punk Rock that actually rocks..Powerpop powered by snarling guitars and adolescent fury..Garage that's not retro, and faces forward with a fresh sneer of its own. Melodies written at the altar of The Ramones and The Buzzcocks, guitar echoes of Cheetah Chrome and Johnny Thunders, and a rhythm section that could’ve belonged to The Damned or The Saints.
Behind Bob’s slashing guitars and snot-powered vocals, stands a long history that includes recording with GG Allin (Carnival of Excess, Hated) and a Killed By Florida name-check.
Kevin’s howling vocals and throbbing bass lines have made their way through a 10+ year litany of Texas punk bands, including The Convulsions and The Lusties.
Tim’s powerhouse drumming carries the weight of more than a dozen years drumming in the barrooms of Austin with the likes of Victims of Leisure, Sore Losers, Barleypop, Daddy’s Drunk and Suburban Terror Project.
New to the band but hardly a stranger, Duane put the guitar muscle in The Chumps, and if you haven't seen him around with Nervous Hospital, USS Friendship, or The Hamicks you just ain't been around.
