Sounds Like
Leftover Crack, Degenerics, we're "a little bit country, a little bit rock n roll, n a lil bit Soul II Soul"* 80's Pop, 60's Mod, 90's Crust, some new songs sound like 80's thrash & much, but not too much...more!!! *(quote is O.D.B. from the Mariah Carey "Fantasy (remix)" where p.diddy was just starting to ruin songs by lethargically grunting "uh" and constantly announcing that it is indeed "the remix"...)
O.K., so we're not actually trying to take your under-age children across state-lines to live the decadent Star Fucking Hipster lifestyle.
We are a new band featuring members of mostly current, with a couple of non-active, but not broken-up bands like Choking Victim, The Degenerics, Leftover Crack, the Slackers, Nanuchka and Casa de Chihuahua with honorary members from bands like the Bouncing Souls, World/Inferno Friendship Society and the Hold Steady (all of whom play on the two tracks we have decided to debut on this page). Anyhow, we have what I believe is a talented group of musicians here and we are making an effort to try and mix shit up with our styles of playing and song-writing while keeping the ideas of leftist-politics and ethics of true punk alive (we understand that the definition of "punk" has broadened and in our opinion has been obscenely perverted for years to meet capitalistic ends), but we are not here to exclude people, we don't care what you do, own, believe in, look like, where you come from or any of that superficial shit. We plan on playing all-ages shows with the hope of maintaining the interest of "slightly older" folks such as our-selves. What we do or "believe" in does not need to be conformed to by you. We are an ANTI-RACIST, ANTI-SEXIST, ANTI-HOMOPHOBIC & ANTI-FASCIST organization. We are pro-choice, but anti-breeding, we are against any wars that are fought for profit or for the power to enslave people or to destroy the cultures of another race, religious or ethnic group. We are against nations and their ill-gotten arbitrary borders. We are against the invasion and colonialism perpetrated by crass, brutish governments such our own. We believe only in fighting to defend your people, culture and resources from being raped by international bullies looking to turn a profit at the expense of innocent people and this very planet that gives us life.
WE BELIEVE IN ROCKING YOU!!!
We hope that you rock back.

Hello. "Two Cups of Tea" will not finish on my page, and i enjoy this song very much. I would like to hear the rest of it some day and you can't play in Cleveland anymore and i don't have a car to see your shows. Since I'm stuck up shit creek, I am going to sit here and leave a diatribe on your comments. I enjoy your music very much, and the message even more. I must say though, that I am pissed off that the chances of me ever seeing you play are slim to none, and the only way i have to hear your message is MYSPACE of all things. I am getting at absolutely nothing here, to be perfectly honest. I'm just writing cuz i'm feeling sorry for myself because I can't see a good band because I live in a white trash shithole outside Cleveland where the only thing to ever do comes once a year to the local church, and only stays for 4 days at most. I AM VERY FUCKING BORED and i was enjoying "Two Cups of Tea" so much but it had to be interrupted for some reason unknown to me, and i was very upset about this, and i figured i should let you know. Thank you for your time, I am going to return to my shitting in one hand and wishing for something to do in another.
wow man you really know how to call out dumb texas asss holes HAHAAAAAA!!!!! dont worry man we arent all dumb rednecks we be fightn the globalist pigs. i do need to come see yall other than tx though. travel on bros and sistas!!!
