Steve-bass
Mike-drums
Billy-vocals
A Division Of formed in November of 2002 and had our first show on november 26th. Steve, John and Tony were in a punk band and broke up due to creative differences with the drummer. Knowing their band was going to break up they looked no further than their friend Mike to play drums and start a new band. With no name and no songs they quickly decided they wanted to be a heavier band than their last band. After 2 practices John decided he just wanted to sing or scream and not play guitar, so they asked Mike's younger brother Charlie, who quickley agreed to guitar duties. 5 Practices and 5 songs later A Division Of started playing shows in Arizona. A Division Of is still playing and are writing new songs to play since they have now been a band a year its time for some new songs and for some more shows.
