Influences: With 7 members in this band, our influences cover a vast array of genres.
"Our drummer likes skate punk like Pennywise, the guitarist (ADAM) likes crusty punk, SKA, Electronica, and metal, the bassist likes psychobilly and Black metal, the singer listens to bands like Alkaline Trio or My Chemical Romance or White Zombie, but we all share an appreciation for ska in all it's forms." When you break it down you can take the hardest metal song and turn it into a lounge song just like you can take a country song and make it into a punk song. All music is interchangeable really.
