About Me

THE SWEET REVENGE STORY... The Short Version

Formed in San Francisco in the Spring of 2006, The Sweet Revenge draw upon experience ranging from mundane to monumental, they pour their aggression, energy and overall discontent with life in general into one cathartic punk/powerpop release after another. Every hook, harmony, chorus and breakdown forms a powerful reaction to social and personal frustrations and the righteous determination to strike back. If you can't connect with their sound or message you obviously haven't been paying attention.

Their infectious sound combines driving, yet melodic tones with condemning vocals and hardcore inspired drumming into one high-powered ball of punk rock. The Sweet Revenge is the collective voice of four Bay Area musicians determined to recapture punk's ambition and retribution with an honest and confident do-it-yourself attitude.

With an E.P. recorded all analog on a 1" reel at The House Of Faith studio with Bart Thurber(Fury 66, U.K. Subs, Neurosis, the Odd Numbers, Swingin' Utters, Janitors Aganst Apartheid), mixed at Hot Head Recording by Alex Newport(Sepultura, Two Gallants, The Locust, At The Drive-In, Dead To Me, Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies, Piebald), mastered by John Greenham(Two Gallants, Keak Da Sneak, Drist, Queensrÿche, Brazil, The Locust) and a music video which reached the top 10 on the Famecast website directed by Dan Fraga(Storyboard artist/Production Designer for Gwen Stefani, Justin Timberlake, Fall Out Boy, and movies such as The Transporter 2, ATL, and the Fantastic Four and Hulk sequels). Receiving consistent airplay on the major top 40's station KRKC 102.1 in the greater South Monterey County including Salinas, Santa Cruz, Monterey, and King City, they are looking to step foot in the music industry ready to kill any performance that is handed to them.

TSR NEWS
Sept. 10th, 2008
Wow a lot has happened since the last post. We are way too slow with these, but then again, who reads this? Anyway, first and foremost we would like to thank everyone who was there to support us through the last few months with our Bottom of the Hill show going off with a bang, our Northwest tour (thanks Rev/Success, Neal, Cameron, and everyone else for helping us out), and our Slim's show at the end of the tour. That was probably the most amazing experience we've had as a band thus far.
With everything going the way it has been we have a couple of announcements. First, everyone please welcome RYAN MESSICK. He will be teaming up with Chris on guitar to fill our new sound and songs out with awesome diddies and other such noises that he sees fit. He's the beef to our beefless burger. Furthermore, we would like to introduce to you, BERT THE CAMERAMAN. Haha, he's our "6th" member. Please when you see him, especially if you are a lady, say hi, hug him, take a picture with him, maybe even kiss him! 16 is the new 18 girls...
Well, that's all I've really got as far as announcements and news. Now that our tour is over, we will be playing a few shows here and there to end out the year but we are mainly concerned with writing new music. We have about 80% of a new album written out and we need to get to 200%. The cup spilleth over...or some shit. We will be going into the studio later this year to record a couple of our new songs and we will be posting them EXCLUSIVELY on myspace. From that point on, we will be recording a couple of songs here and there and putting the final touches on all the songs and getting it pressed and in your hands before we leave for our national tour next year.Thanks for being supportive and we will hit you up again on more news.

Holy shit folks! It's been a couple of months since we updated this so here are some updates. We've been extremely happy with the response we have been receiving for our EP "Sleeping Cities". We've sold hundreds of copies in the past couple of months and our CD Release Party at the Quarternote was off the hook! Lots of familiar faces (thank you to those) and lots of new faces (thanks to them too). Overall it was a crazy and fun night and if you missed it, well you missed it hah.
Anyway, we've been diligently writing new music, recording it for ourselves so we can perfect the songs and gear up for our full length. We're also working on booking two 10 day tours this year. One northwest going all the way up to Seattle again (our second hometown) and later in the year we'll be heading southwest as far as New Mexico and Texas. We're going to be visiting new places, new cities, and new states covering every single state in the west coast. And as a special treat in 2009, we're saying fuck it to our lives and jobs for 3 weeks and we will be doing a FULL NATIONAL TOUR from CA to NY and back. We're stoked about it but you know you gotta take one day at a time. So for now we're focused on 2008 and the endeavors it will bring.
Thanks for being supportive and we will hit you up again on more news.

Fingers and toes,

Hello everyone! This is a quick update! If you're looking at our profile well then I hope we made it obvious that our EP "Sleeping Cities" is finally available for purchase in our online store! So go buy it. It's only $5 and maybe we'll end some other fun stuff with it. Go get it!

Sheesh! We need to keep up on this shit! Sorry for the lack of updates! Let's see here...Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy Groundhog's Day, Happy Valentine's Day, and finally soon to come Happy President's Day. So we have HUGE NEWS! (and cocks), our ep SLEEPING CITIES WILL BE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC NEXT WEEK! Woohoo! We're so ecstatic. it's been a long road of bullshit and what not but it's finally ready. So here's the deal so far: We're getting 1000 copies today. We're going to sell them on our Online Store and on Interpunk.com and basically anywhere else we can get them. Hopefully we can go around the indie record stores and sell them there for you folks to pick them up. Also, since we don't have a show coming up until April, you can email us and we'll do our best to get it out to you. We will be unveiling some more new merch this year and some new ANGELA RYAN pics hopefully soon. Other than that we have been just holed up in our studio writing new music. In fact we have a good full length album's worth. You know what? I think we'll just record a new LP this year! That's right folks. This year we will be heading back into the studio to record enough songs to make our first ever full length album.
A lot has been going on with each of us. Chris and Erick have actually joined a side project tentatively named The Romance Explosions. It's more of a dark, goth, synth ladened music with a girl singer. When more of it comes you will be the first to know. James got himself sick in the last month. He was in the hospital but he's back on his feet and better than ever. We love you :)
Well folks I think that's all we got for now. Until next time...
