Four bored midwestern proletariats struggling to focus their emotional vomit into music, (rather than rally the mass of rejects too scared for GG Allin into sloppy drunken rioting...) We don't take ourselves seriously but we love playing. Our music is influenced by Tool, Foo Fighters, Alice in Chains, but we're difficult to categorize. Our styles are whorish, like Ween.
Aaron aka Run4kover, the drummer, and Jake aka Doc Lope, the guitarist, spent their teenage years jamming out, driving their parents and neighbors crazy with noise pollution. In early 2004, an acquaintance of Aaron's began playing bass with them, followed by the vocalist a month later. We've hit the ground running and been OCD ever since.
We dig regular gigs at a local host that features scads of local talent and many national favorites. We also are extremely fortunate to have a network of drunken rednecks that love throwing keggers in the cornfields, so we play house parties with the greatest local talent.
Our personal influences are incredibly eclectic, but we still manage to find common ground. Our shared influences include Tool, Nirvana, System of a Down, Slipknot, Primus, and the like.
Band intros:
Jake guitarist; mild-mannered ex-uniform...easy going, enjoys small get-togethers, (crowds make him paranoid, then he gets his CrAzY eyes.)
Aaron drummer; rambunctious cornfed Juggalo. Loves Michigan, hence writing lyrics "I'm Not Goin Nowhere"
Megan bassist; misunderstood as FemNazi, likes to pick fights with big guys and drink whiskey.
Nathan vocalist; dubbed "FratBoy" by band mates..never seen without a beer and a smile..hold his own in a moshpit
