About Me

depth charge revolt is an indie/post-punk band from Santa Cruz, California. Their influences include Fugazi, No Means No, Sonic Youth, and the Minutemen. depth charge revolt consists of two drummers, guitarist, bassist and a vocalist. Todd Coleman and Kevin Northcutt create the simply complex rhythmic backbone, while Ryan Morgan lays down the frenetic bass lines. Craig Prentice wavers between melodic sing-song to full-out guitar frenzy blast, as Hector Lee Heaviside becomes distraught and asks you to be his friend. depth charge revolt formed in the early part of the year 2000, and shortly thereafter began playing shows in the surrounding Santa Cruz area. They embarked on their first tour in the summer of 2001 and a second west coast tour in the summer of 2004. Both tours took depth charge revolt as far north (the second tour even further north) than Seattle, Washington and back. They have performed in a variety of venues including the Catalyst, the Blue Lagoon, The Attic and The Rio Theatre in Santa Cruz; Lipo Lounge and El Rio in San Francisco; and The Aptos Club and the Mediterranean in Aptos, Ca. depth charge revolt has shared the bill with acts such as Comets On Fire, Brian Kenny Fresno, Sheena, Kayo Dot, Giraffes? Giraffes! and Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. In 2001 depth charge revolt released a self-titled e.p., followed by a second release in 2004, The Inaudible Growl e.p.; both produced and recorded by the band.A professionally recorded debut full length album is in the works for release in the Winter of 2008; we recorded this last February of 2007 with Dan Rathbun of Polymorph Recording and Sleepytime Gorilla Museum! This will be released on Hector Lee Heaviside's "Loves In Heat Records". Thank you for spending a little bit of your day with us.
