   About the SuperTacks
Photobucket
Featuring former members of some of the region's most infamous bands such as Bone Appetit, Jackie and the Rip-Offs, Puddle Wonderful, and the First Ladies, no one really knew what to expect from the SuperTacks, including the band. But in a very short time the SuperTacks have transformed themselves into one of the area's premier acts, bringing with them a high energy live show and fistfuls of powerful riffs, hooks, and screaming guitar solos. The band doesn't limit or categorize their music to any one style and continues to branch out while keeping their rock n' roll roots firmly planted. As bands go they are young, forming in the spring of 2005, but they are an experienced group with truckloads of talent between them. Their energy and passion for music on and off the stage is infectious and proves that this is not just another rock band, but one on a mission to revive rock n' roll from its long slumber. the SuperTacks released their debut album entitled "Onwards and Awkwards" in October 2006. Never with a lack of material or motivation, the band will begin recording their follow up album in spring of 2007, set for release sometime later in the summer while playing shows around the region. You can also find them on the second compliation disc from the zine "And the Heroine Screams Help".
