InfluencesWe're always under the influence.
Sounds LikeA cacophony of intertwining genres wrought from completely different eras, influence pools, and mind sets. Some are little country, a few are rock and roll, yet there's a few ferrous materials in there as well to round it all out. Add in some complete disregard for traditional rules and obligations and there you have it. Exactly what IT is never seems clear, but what's the fun in convention anyways?
Record LabelNone - But you can buy MORENEVERTHANEVER on iTunes

   About Highbinder
Experimentation without pretention. Distilling myriad influences into a cohesive whole, a recognizable identity. Keeping the mind open at any cost. Lofty goals for anyone, let alone four guys from Ohio. Meet HIGHBINDER, a four headed beast of the highest order, reveling in the freedom to create something new for your ears. These days, with so much information, dis-information, so much MUSIC available at the touch of a mouse or radio dial, coming down to us from all times and places - how could anyone with an interest in pushing music forward place any limits on themselves? The answer is you can't, all you can do is take what you see and hear, then create. Meet MORENEVERTHANEVER. Will you take this sonic journey with us? Ranging from flat out, searing guitar kamikaze, to alt-country death-boogie. From comedic takes on your local news show, to dark and propulsive songs of love and loss. Drugs, obelisks, space whales populating the universe - this ain't what you're used to! Impassioned vocals (sometimes sweet and clear, sometimes burnt and ragged) play out over the proto-punk, Sabbath inflected guitars and drums from Mars to make something truly different than anything you've heard in the last ten years. More importantly, it all rocks with a fury that's sometimes barely suppressed and sometimes exploding outward in overdrive. We are a rock band with one eye on the legacy behind us, and one eye always on the future. HIGHBINDER is Jon Kuhlman - baritone guitar and vocals Andrew Clark - lead guitar and vocals Nick Grifka - drums and percussion Adam Keeler - bass guitar and backup vocals This album is to be played at maximum volume, of course. Like I even had to tell you? Enjoy the ride and come back anytime. First amendment to the Highbinder Constitution: FUCK MACY'S--- I Never Sleep

You realize a pet rock named Stoney would be a perfect mascot for Highbinder right?

His googly eyes would have to be bloodshot though.

You could probably do great things with a set of Lincoln logs though. Maybe even...save the world.

Highbinder,

You are fun. My mom says that when I get big I could grow up to be like Highbinder. It was a fun day. All of the people were nice. The vodka was watered down. My dog has brown and black spots on his fur. We want to see you soon to play music again in the future for each other. That was fun also. I'm glad my dad has a hammock.

I'm betting the fact your name meaning a corrupt politician or a gang of assassins is lost on people. I thought it meant top shelf cheese.

The roots of punk names are simplicity: the Sex Pistols (the original name of the NRA), the Ramones (spawning the show everybody loves Ramones and the Jonas Brothers), Bad Religion (named after a Jacko album that dealt with the issue of prepubescent homosexuality), NOFX (KISS with puns), Rich Kids on LSD...

I like to play these guys at family outings:
