About Me

The year was 1993. The world was forever marked by the birth of two of this centuries most influential entities. The names were SHAWNFORD CHARLES CHEMTOV and MASSIMO ARNALDO IZZO. It seemed as though mankind had produced two of the finest beings and scientists wondered if another human as invicible as these two would ever be created again. Flash forward three years. Max Izzo's younger brother, Alex, is brought onto this earth and the holy trinity of the century was completed. Flash forward to the crazy summer of '07. Max had played some shows at his elementary school with his brother, and Shawn did some high school gigs with his band Out Of Tune. But when Out Of Tune suddenly disbanded in June, Shawn was bandless and armless (aside from the fact he had arms). But a few days later, at junior prom, Shawn was bored so he went up to Max and started talking to him. At first Max said "why are you talking to me you devlishly handsome animal?" but then after spending a few minutes with Shawn he decided that "hey, this guy is pretty bad ass!". Shawn proposed a deal to Max, offering to start a band. Max said "hell no" but later added that he could, however, serve as the third member to the two-piece band he and his brother had started. And hence, the holy trinity was united and musical bliss was produced from the unison of the three chosen ones. Shawn called max a few days later, and they've been rocking out ever since. As that delightful song says, SO FAR SO GOOD! So Far So Good
