   About Paperback Tragedy

Next Show: July 18th Macs the Club!!!



Paperback Tragedy is a pop/hardcore punk foursome from Baltimore, MD. Their array of influences range from punk to reggae and even country. From spastic to somber, lead vocalist Will West and Paperback Tragedy, demonstrate musical intricacy and arrangement uncommon in most of today's punk-rock. Paperback Tragedy has hit the east coast for the past seven years, leaving their mark, with a frenetic live show that connects with every crowd (the first 5 years they performed under the band name "Brat").





"The songwriting is much better than what is now passing for punk rock. Very melodic, yet, it stays true to the fast garage punk rock of its roots....This song [the Clockbreaker] represents what new punk should sound like."

"A very tight band and great fast punk-rock tune that will catch you from the beginning and keep you listening."

"This is just my kind of music - crazy tempo, driving rhythms, sing-along lyrics, strong singer, mad energy, great little melodies. Love it!"
