A band that built a catalog on metal aggression and melodic hooks through relentless touring.
For a quick sense of their sound, put on 'Scream' or 'Sorry Not Sorry.' They're both good examples of how the band handles intensity without losing the hook.
They've spent nearly two decades writing songs that don't soften their edges, from the early album 'My Dear' to later tracks like 'Hurts Like Hell.' Their music connects because it feels direct and lived-in, a mix of provocation and emotional release that's earned them a dedicated following. You hear it in the way 'Disgust Me' balances a metal riff with something you can almost hum.
Formed in 2005 around Ash Costello and Jeremy Valentyne, they started by touring heavily under rough conditions, playing small shows and living cheap. The records followed, from 'My Dear' to 'Victim to Villain' and 'Diary of a Creep,' but the work ethic never really changed.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
