Date & location formed:
We’re from Salisbury, Maryland and formed late July 2014
Reason for forming:
Brandon (drummer) and I (Ryan, guitarist/singer) were in a dream pop band that was breaking up and I had been writing a couple of faster garage songs on the side which turned into our demo.
What are your lyrics about?
Our lyrics are just kinda whatever I relate to at the moment. On the first record it was a little more reserved with the new album coming out “Oyoy” it’s more personal and maybe a bit more depressing/angry, me being a bitch about life.
How would you describe your sound?
I don’t really like describing our sound, but I guess really noisy lofi garage punk with a cartoon character singing. Live we play our songs a lot faster.
