About Me

Vendors and parents beware:
Your precious products and offspring are not safe from our wrath.
We have come for your minds.

We've been at this since Winter of 2002. We've had nearly as many different band members as the number of shows we have played. Through the course of dozens of tours, we've had the privilege of playing all over the North American continent many times over--everywhere from Central Mexico to Alaska to French Canada, as well as many other countries (in alphabetical order: Bulgaria, Colombia, Costa Rica, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Norway, Poland, Puerto Rico, Singapore, Slovakia, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand). There are still many parts of the world we have yet to terrorize! We're not trying to make a living off of this music, but rather a life we actually enjoy living. The world as we know it is going straight to hell.
