Archive material and source history
The Playground was an alt-rock quartet from Los Angeles that formed in the mid-2000s. The band consisted of Anthony Carone on lead vocals and guitar, Dave Jones on bass, Aaron Short on drums, and Mike Milosh on guitar and backing vocals. They released their debut album 'Lost in Time' in 2006, which included the single 'Fight the End.'
'Fight the End' became their breakout track, gaining attention for its driving rhythm and defiant lyrics. The song helped establish them in the alternative rock scene during that period. They followed up with several more albums over the next decade, including 'Seven Years Later' in 2009, 'Innocent Without Proof' in 2011, and 'Alien in a Strange Land' in 2014.
The band experienced some lineup changes over time, with Mike Milosh departing in 2009 and Aaron Short leaving in 2015. They went on hiatus in 2017, though they haven't officially disbanded. Their music from that 2006-2014 period continues to find listeners who connect with that particular strain of mid-2000s alternative rock.
