Background notes
Archive material and source history
War36 formed in 1994 in Long Beach, California, with Troy Sanders on vocals and guitar, Matt Piorek on bass, and Matt Cameron on drums. They spent years playing local shows before releasing their self-titled debut album in 2002.
The single "BYOB" from that album became their breakthrough track. Its aggressive sound and direct lyrics connected with listeners, though some critics questioned its content. The band maintained they were addressing social issues.
They followed up with albums like "Ashes of the Wake" in 2005 and "The Sacrament" in 2006. Another song, "Sugar," appears among their most recognized tracks.
