We have played with many bands such as 7-10 split,The Degenerates, The Heroics, SOC, Surviving Autumn, Horizontal Stripes, SCAP, Parwana, Insult to Tradition, and more.

Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Brad, Matt, and Dan were an instrumental band for a few months looking for a singer. Brad knew Frank from skating with him and knew he was the singer of another band. Frank didn't like the music his band was doing, so he came to sing for us one practice and from then on, he was our singer
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes we play live. We mostly play in the Alliance area, but soon will be in Cleveland and who knows where else.
Your musical influences
We like bands with a lot of energy and moshing. Our drummer likes all types of music though. He likes hardcore, emo, and bands like Dave Matthews Band. It's a good thing though, he has diversity when he plays. The rest of us pretty much are into hardcore and emo.
What equipment do you use?
Brad uses a Washburn X-series guitar that is light blue. Dan uses an all black Squire P-bass. Matt plays a lot of drums......ummm....they're Tama, but there's a lot of them, too much to type.
Anything else?
The band is planning on recording there first full length CD. They plan to have 12 tracks and a lot of it is new material.
