It's pretty simple.
Four guys decide to put together a band in highschool. Unusual success occurs and they start to play in venues outside of their town. Word started to spread and to the complete bewilderment to the band, we've become well known in our hometown and surrounding areas.
Classic.
Just read the introduction. Our history isn't very exciting - we recorded our first album "Decent Alright" in a church using a whole lot of crappy mics and a church PA mixer....wasn't that great, but people in Grimsby ate it right up.
And just this summer, our singer traded his computer in for a digital multi-tracker, and we bought a really awesome microphone. Over two months we put together our best stuff, and in September released our second album entitled "No Dice".
Yes we play live. Usually in our hometown of Grimsby, Ontario - or in St. Catharines, Ontario. We love playing live - it's the best part of being in a band. My current favourite moment playing live is when our lead singer fell off a speaker monitor he was standing on into the crowd. He kept singing his entire fall and didn't miss a word as he recovered and came back on stage.
All four of the band members have extremely different tastes that contribute to our constant switching of styles and moods. Maybe we're just fickle.
Here's a list of some of our influences:
-I Mother Earth
-Green Day
-Tool
-The Red Hot Chili Peppers
-The Foo Fighters
-A Perfect Circle
-Filter
-Atom and his Package
-Weezer
-The Hawksley Workmen
-Placebo
