FAILED ATTEMPT 52

Ska / Punk / Progressive

 


We are indeed a Ska Band out of Howell, MI located North of Ann Arbor and West of Detroit. We lean more toward the SkaCore side of things than the Rudeboy Two-Toned days of Mephiskapheles, The Toasters, The Specials, and The Israelites. Say we ain't ska? That's fine, but you can still skank and two-step to our stuff Rudeboy, and you can learn to coexist with the xhardxcorex kids who want to do their version of two-stepping and the punk rockers who just want to mosh and create mad circle pits. (I find it funny that Purevolume censors "h.a.r.d.c.o.r.e" yet still has it as a genre of music)

I would call our shows melting pots, but they are more like a spicy plate of Nacho Supreme. They have za cool flavors and za spicy flavors and they come together and everything has that lovely taste that one can normally only get from Dorito Collisions. Speaking of collisions, we have those too.

As of tomorrow we are going into the studio to record some mad licks. They will be up here and on MySpace as soon as possible, but until then, go to YouTube and check out the live videos of "Every Day" and "One Shot, Long Shot" that were actually recorded back in April but I guess I didn't tell you Purevolumians of them :X Sorry about that. Well check them out and we'll have some sweetness up for you as soon as possible.

I don't update this really anymore, at least not until we have music up, so check our myspace, even if you don't have one. - Eric
