   About The Knockout Pills
Kicking around Tucson, AZ since late 2001, the Knockout Pills sprang from the gutted corpses of the Weird Lovemakers (Empty Records), Los Federales (No Theme!) & the Resonars (well, their corpse is actually still making records on Get Hip). Since temperature-wise Tucson regularly tops out in the triple digits; they figured it'd be pretty smart to spend their spare time drunkenly jumping around under a buncha hot lights in some dingy smoke filled clubs while banging out a crude kind of fucked up aproximation of Punk Rock/ Rock & Roll. Clearly not the brightest guys you'll ever meet, they're still at it & are having a great time. Self titled debut lp/ cd came out in 2003 on LA's Dead Beat Records, and their newest lp/ cd "1+1=ATE" was released in Sept 2004 on Bellingham's Estrus Records. Current plans are the same as ever: get out & play as much as their jobs & van will let them get away with. Oh hey, just for good measure here's the blurb on the new record from the Estrus hype machine: Hailing from Tucson AZ with ex & current jerks from the Weird Lovemakers, Resonars & Los Federales, The Knockout Pills unleash the followup to their creeper s/t 2003 debut and smack you head on with 12 tracks of shit-snot punk n’ roll blister pop blaze on thier “1+1=ATE” LP/CD! Self recorded on 4-track (after the proposed jump to 8-track was beaten down) at the band’s own swelteringly hot Coma Cave Studios, “1+1=ATE” serves up a high energy batch of well crafted songs (yeah, that’s right, SONGS, jackass) bridging the gap between a beer stained pile of revved up American & Aussie punk records of the 70s and a stack of choice US garage, British invasion and psych sides from the 60’s and pure ‘04 AZ foxfire...think early Digits, Husker Du, Saints, Byrdman, Teengenerate, Ramones, Cheap Trick, Real Kidz...Hell, you get the score. Loud Fast Rules....but NOT at the expense of hooks and harmonies [as seems to be the curse of so many bands lumped into this here “punk” scene of late]...These lizard stomping monkeyfuckers can blaze n’ graze with the best of the best and will have you both pounding yer fist and bopping yer head while shakin’ yer ass and busting chairs over your kid sisters boyfriends pointed little multi pierced head....dig? It’s simple math: 1+1=GREAT! The plan now is to record a few more new tunes & to play more live shows, live shows, live shows. Oh and hey -- if you want to set up a European or Japanese tour or something, well they'd certainly be into that. No, really.

Hi there The Knockout Pills first of all we'd like to say thanks for being our myspace pal. We wanted to make sure you knew the reason incase we suddenly vanish off of your friends list. The movement we've started for indie artists has grown significantly and consumes all of our time these days. We seldom sign into our myspace account and this is making several people believe that we are ignoring them. We are not ignoring anyone, we wanted everyone to know that. What we're doing has become so busy we just don't have the time for myspace any longer, so in all honesty we are probably going to just close our myspace account.

Many people wanted to use us in the future so if you were one of those people make sure you bookmark the link below so that in the event that we do close our myspace account you won't lose contact with us. I wish you the best of luck in your music career. Thanks again for being our myspace pal.
