Band/artist history
The band first formed as (Eddie Murphy) as Rhythm Guitar, and (Brent Roth) on drums. After having several jams at Lennon Studios, they've decided to become a Punk band. While Brent Roth being in another band (Storm Temple) they quickly decided to call themselves, "The Polluted Youth" After jaming for quite some time, they decided to get a singer. A singer/friend from school, Ben Rollen and they jamed and had a couple of riffs. With Storm Temple (Brent's Sec. Band) being much further, The Polluted youth, weren't as serious. They were kind of like, "Let's just see what happens" After a couple of months of just Eddie, Brent, and Ben, they found out there was an upcoming gig with a few other bands, and The Polluted Youth wanted to participate. On the other hand, them not having a bass player, or any songs of their own, it was more difficult to participate on the show. Brent decided to give his old buddy Raffael Santos, (Who Was Gonna Be The Damn Ticket Taker For The Show) to play lead guitar and Eddie would switch over to Bass. With Ralf coming into the band, he was able to lead the band into a slightly different direction. He lead them into a more Alternative side. After one practice with Ralf, Eddie decided that he no longer wanted to play Bass, so now they have two guitarists, and no bass player. After a few rerhearsals for the show, Ben decided that he wanted to leave the band, because he wanted to do 1 1/2 min. songs, and the rest of the band didn't agree. (Basically Music Difference)
All the band members looked to Ralf and demanded that he'd sing. Ralf objected at first because of his unbelievable love for lead guitar, and he wanted no part in singing. Moments later he was convinced, and he sings to this day. Weeks later Brent searched around for a Bass player or any one who's willing to play bass, and he came across another person (Jack Friel) who wanted to join The Polluted Youth. Brent informed Jack that we needed a bass player. Jack was able to put the guitar down and switch over to bass. After the first show, Jack would no longer be playing for Polluted Youth. With all the many arguments with Ralf and Brent, they decided to kick him out. But with Brent Always wanting to play Bass ever since he was involved with music, this would be the perfect oppurtunity for him to switch over to Bass guitar. We then need to find a drummer as quick as possible due to our up coming show. Brent had a friend in mind, (Lucas Castro) that was on the verge of leaving his other band, and he quickly joined the band.
A few months later, after taking a 3 month break after their 2nd show. The band decided to let their Rhythm Guitarist Eddie go. There was no fight, or dispute. A few months pass with nothing happening. Then out of the blue, Brent got the band their 3rd show. After a 5 month break they were willing to do what it took to put on a good show. But their drummer Lucas was not ready. When the day came for their 3rd show, Lucas was playing very poorly. Not knowing parts, starting too early in the songs, not knowing where to end, and over all, not giving in any effort. After seeing footage from the show and noticing the screw ups at the show Ralf and Brent kicked lucas out. shortly after kicking Lucas outta the band Brent had another drummer in mind. His friend from school (Gabe). After hanging out with Gabe and Jaming with him, they have no doubt that Gabe will be their new drummer.
