Well we started in 2001 in Tulsa Oklahoma and recorded our first E.P in 2002 at Valcour Studios called, "Punks Divided". It was named after a song we wrote about the scene we were in. We returned to Valcour Studios in 2003 to record a split album with our friends, "All Out Attack", called "Search and Destroy". All the while we were playing shows and building up the scene in Tulsa. shortly after the recording of the split, we "split" ourselves and regrouped in Kansas City. In 2005 we recorded 4 more songs and compiled them together with the rest of our recordings and entitled it "Best Before the Blast!". After playing some shows in and around the Kansas City area, we fell on hard times again and after losing some members decided to relocate back to Tulsa, Oklahoma. Here we gained some old members back and a new one from OKC.
