"The Chupacobra saga began in Galveston, Texas, where the Wise brothers — singer-guitarist Dallas and bassist-singer Dylan — grew up. They eventually made their way to Las Vegas and started the Pervz, who — despite their corny name — quickly became one of Sin City’s more authentically rampaging punk combos. A couple years ago, the brothers relocated to L.A. and — joined by no-nonsense, slash-&-burn drummer Mikey Mayhem — reinvented themselves as Chupacobra, cranking up a hard-driving classic-punk sound that has absolutely nothing in common with modern emo whiners and corporate pop-punk careerists. Original tunes such as “350 Tonight” and “Machine Gun Eyes” (from the band’s demo CD and also available on their Myspace page) surge with anthemic, Misfits-style choruses, while “Lie to Me” starts innocently with Dylan’s low-key bass line and Dallas’ lazy drawl before slamming into a typically exhilarating punk chorus..."
