TAKE MY CHANCES
Blah blah blah, ex Heads Vs Breakers, blah blah blah, ex The Backup Plan, blah blah blah. None of that means anything or is relevant. This band was started for the lack of what we consider to be REAL hardcore bands, locally and otherwise. In 2005, it's really easy for anybody to get four of their freinds together and rehash a bunch of youth crew fast parts and moshy breakdowns and sing about a bunch of bullshit that doesn't mean anything and has not one original thought in it. Sure, hardcore has never been about reinventing the wheel. But it WAS about doing your OWN thing, and having a voice, YOUR OWN voice... and having something relevant to say with that voice. We started this band because our old bands broke up and we all have found ourselves too old and too involved with real lives and without the backings of mom and dad's money to be a touring band like everybody from the good side of town seems to be doing these days. We started this band with no ambition to go on the road full time, put out records on whatever label is selling shit like hotcakes this year, or ever get any huge national following. Our job is here, showing people what hardcore SHOULD be about is in our very own local "scene". We write music that we like, we do NOT try to sound ike ANYTHING (more importantly, we often DO try NOT TO sound like some things), and we make goddamn sure that the lyrics are the most important part of the package. Because when hardcore was about playing like shit but having a relevant point, that's when it mattered most to us. We make our own t shirts (either sweatshop free or stolen), we practice in basements, we don't and won't ever have a van, and we're having more fun doing it than any band we've been in before that had the luxuries of touring, label support, etc. This is the one that means the most.
