   About Hostage Life

We formed like Voltron in 2002 and played our first show on the last day of that year. Prior to our formation, the majority of us played in other Toronto-area outfits that we're not going to list here because fuck you. We've released an EP called "Sing For The Enemy," and our first full length album "Walking Papers" was just released (we encourage you to purchase it, or download it, or, better yet, make an audio tape of a friend's copy to show the world how technologically esoteric you are). We've shared the stage with such bands as -- name drop here -- and are currently signed to Underground Operations in North America and Household Name Records in the UK. Don't ask us who our influences are because, not only are they pretty obvious, it's a horribly banal question. Stop reading and just listen to the fucking song.
