The Spinoffs

Avoiding playing last or first since 1998!

About Me

The Spinoffs have existed for years. Think "pop-punk", but more tough, like Head, Riverdales, and more poppy like the Dickies and the Buzzcocks. We love a lot of band that play simple songs with tight melodies and fuzzy guitars, but we try to be a cut above by using shorter, tighter arrangements. See us knock down 20 songs in 30 minutes and you'll understand.

Our new album is out. It's called "Street Rock Stars" and if you want a copy you can mail us 10 carefully concealed dollars or order it from Interpunk:Click here to see the release on interpunk!

Sounds Like: People who hate us say we sound "exactly like Screeching Weasel". People who don't hate us say we have a very unique sound. It comes across better live. I dunno. Listen to the music. We play very short songs because most moves are the wrong move. We like melody, harmony, and velocity. We call it street rock because we're all about Head, Sack, Lillingtons, and Riverdales.
