Background notes

Archive material and source history

Karate High School formed in Los Angeles in 1998 with Johnny X on vocals and guitar, Rob T on bass, Hiro on guitar, and Matt K on drums. They put out albums like 'The Karate High School Album' in 1999, 'Party Til You Puke' in 2001, and 'Zombies Everywhere' in 2005. The band broke up in 2009.

Their songs had titles like 'Failure Is Officially An Option,' 'Punk Rock Uniform,' and 'Zombies Everywhere.' The lyrics often touched on horror themes and social commentary, which sometimes drew criticism. They kept making music that way regardless.

They released a few more records, including 'Die Fast, Die Loud' in 2003 and 'Today's Empires, Tomorrow's Ashes' in 2007. Other tracks included 'Out On The Streets,' 'Can't Hold Me Down,' 'Oh No,' 'One Trip Around The Sun,' and '...And Then You Die!'
