RIOT THIS

2006--Time has gone by and just like all other bands RIOT THIS has gone through some changes. We have lost members but gained others that have truly inspired us but thats not what has really changed or effected RIOT THIS. The more we go on our journey as a band the more accomplished we feel. From the begining to now we have seen, felt, & heard the harsh reality of society we live in and now more then ever RIOT THIS is realizing more and more of what we are about as a band. We still proudly march on in the Riot Grrrl Revolution and represent the Unity and Equality that Riot Grrrl stands for. We spread the word that the revolution isn't about Grrrls & Grrrls only but about the unity between men & women. Everyday the 2 sexes bring hatred towards eachother and it needs to stop. We also have grown so much in the Punk scene, and when we talk about the Punk scene it's not about the glamour of it, it's about the political stand we have grown apart of. We have found the beautiful structure of Unity thats hidden and covered by the style and glam thats taken over the scene. Punk has taught us how to truly use our 1st admendent right and how to fight the sytem without creating chaos. To us, Punk is about a revolution of diversity and unity that comes together to raise our voices to the system. It is not about raising our voices or fist to eachother. Also, 2/3 of our band have found the revolution of Animal Liberation and decided to devote themselves to being vegan and vegetarian. Basically, we are proud of what the band is growing into and as far as we see, we wont stop growing because of the day to day inspiration we get from fellow bands and people who are devoting themselves to the making of a better worldto live in. RIOT THIS has also reached a new level as musicians. We are playing harder and faster and ripping the stage! Last year I wrote that the vocals can rage, the guitar can rip, and the drums can destroy....and now a year later i could not even begin to describe the hardcore energy that each member of RIOT THIS brings to the stage now. We will open your eyes to a world of Liberation and Revolution and at the same time make you want to fucking rock out like you have never rocked out before!!!2005---Inspired by the riot grrl female aggression music revolution, Riot This came to be. After our tries of playing from our individual previous bands(Sonia and the kidney stones, The Feud, and Procrastination) we decided to put our musical talents together and create the next generation of "riot grrls". Inspired by bands such as bikini kill, sleater kinney, L7, babes in toyland, lunachicks,melt banana and so on, we smashed our brains together and created RIOT THIS. We come from the Baldwin Park, Norwalk, Los Angeles So Cal scene and we wanna put some actual intelliagence into the "punk" scene. We're tired of seeing all the same bands who got nothing better to say then fuck this and fuck that. We wanna revolutionize and open your eyes to the real deal of whats goin on in our world. We're hear to tell you that women still to do suffer, that there is still no complete equality between mankind, that there are leaders in our countries and states who are stealing money and sending us to our deaths. Besides that though we are also a kick ass band! The vocals rage, the guitar can rip, the bass can jam, and the drums can destroy! Riot This will stand up for human rights and bring the equality we search for and with no doubt rock your fucking ass off!
