"Here's a thumbnail review for you: It sounds like YES and THE BEATLES got drunk together at a bar and, on their way out, got run over by THE FIERY FURNACES." - John Grych, Ph.D.
Hey dudes! Long time no talk. We officially changed our name from The Pax Romana to The Code Kids and are working on our first EP in early November. Are you guys gearing up for a Christmas show this year? If you are, we'll definitely be ready by then! :-D
Hey guys! Remember us? We WERE The Pax Romana, but we changed names, got a new feel, and finally did something with our lives. Haha.
Anyways, we just finished recording our EP, and we got the three tracks up for streaming. Check 'em out and see if you're interested... we should book a show soon guys!
We ended up changing the name as well as the direction of the music we were going in. We found our bassist and drummer rather quickly and started writing new material. We're getting our official EPs sometime next week and releasing them at the Cobra Lounge show.
If you guys are in Chicago, you should definitely come on out to the show! December 11th @ the Cobra Lounge.

Comment back and let me know if you like it or not...Even if you don’t like it, please just let me know and give me your honest opinion/feedback.
Also, I am trying to get a gig (anywhere) and haven’t been successful yet. If you know of any club near where you live or have connections to one (Especially in Chicago) please help me out. So far I have only been able to perform at a weekly open mic night and it is only 3 songs per time so it’s not like a real showcase, which is something I would like to try to do next.
