A breath of fresh air in punk rock.

Whether it is the truth in Joshua's voice, the ferocity of Seth's hands and feet, or the unflinching rhythm of David's bass, this trio from Oklahoma City delivers a fast, melodic, message-driven sound.

Story

Fast songs. Clear message. Oklahoma roots.

Philadelphia's archived bio presents the band as Joshua, Seth, and David: guitar and voice, drums, and bass pushing a high-energy punk rock sound from Oklahoma City.

The recovered gear notes are gloriously specific: Gibson SG and Mesa gear, Tama drums with Paiste and Zildjian cymbals, and an Ampeg bass rig. It reads like a band that cared as much about the stage impact as the song.
