starting in 2000, disengaged mixed punk and metal into a fun fussion with catchy lyrics.
When did you hear about them? Definitely not back then.
their lead guitarist shreds (and head-bangs his hat off at the beginning of each song). he can cut through metal riffages that call down satriani from the heavens. Funniest is them splitting into a cover of the 90210 theme song.
I guess they had some shitty demo back them that was most-likely recorded on a boom-box in their practice space.
anyhow, fast forward 2 years where no one knows what they were doing to 2003.
In Spring 2003, they released an actual cd, the ocean, on NotCommon Records.
the CD is way more complex then just punk+metal. there are samples, interludes and other parts that add a weird depth to the cd that you can't quite put a handle on. I think it all boils down to the anti-sanity of the location that the band members live in. Even a bunch of the hate-filled lyrics are done totally tongue-in-cheek, saying "fuck you" but still smiling all the while. Also, you can hear every lyric cleanly so that you can tell when someone decides to play-it-up for the locals and changed a lyric to include the ton they are in.
of course the first time I got to see them, their singer was dying in the hospital or some lame excuse like that so 3 people had to cover the vocal duties to fill the shoes of one Beakey.
