Amped Up & Broke

You think band life is all flashing lights and roaring crowds?
Yeah, no. Try spending weeks in a van that smells like a graveyard of bad burgers.

our story...

 

That van was our home, our coffin, our rehearsal room on wheels. The seats barely held together, the shocks screamed every pothole, and the heater only worked when it felt like it. Nights were endless , the kind where you’d almost fall asleep, then get woken up by someone elbowing you, or worse… my own snoring.

Yeah, I admit it. I snore like a dying chainsaw. The others threatened to throw me out more than once.

But hey, at least my snoring drowned out the other horror: the endless, toxic gas leaks from too many late, night drivethrus. Cracking the window at 3 a.m. in winter just to survive ,  that’s a memory burned in forever.

But here’s the thing: between the stink, the noise, and the zero sleep, something magical happened. Songs were born. Riffs fought their way out of headaches. Jokes turned into lyrics. Chaos became fuel.

We were broke. We were cramped. We were half asleep and half dead.
But we were us, and every miserable mile in that van carved us deeper into who we are. -Jan

IInspiration

Most of our spark came from latenight YouTube dives,  fuel for a rebellion against the big corps pretending to hold authority while hiding in the shadows of things we won’t speak of. We saw the hypocrisy, we smelled the rot, and we try to turn it into sound.

We weren’t chasing comfort. We were a deeper self i guess.
It  hits louder when you’ve lived it, cramped in a van, loud amps shaking the walls, broke but unbroken. - S@n3

Born Loud. Stay Loud.

We did our first gig, and lemme tell ya, that was fire. 

Every note, every word, i feld  like fuel. We here, we r loud, and  alive.

We vibed up fast, its why i wrote " You Were a Storm"  The energy hit like a storm and it was a nice track for a good crossover, Playin together felt mad natural, like it was always meant.

Discover our Sound

For us, music isn’t just genre tags, it’s finding a sound that matches who we are.

At the core, we live in gothcore & emo rock:
raw emotion, heavy riffs, haunting hooks. Think the passion of like roses & Hot Mulligan mixed with the dark edges of Type O Negative and HIM. Add in the spirit of Bjork and Alanis Morissette  our absolute heroes,  and you start to see where our fire comes from.

But man, music’s like a buffet card,soo many flavors, never enough room. Some days it’s roses and heartbreak, other days it’s smashing riffs, and yeah… sometimes it’s us screaming Thomas The Tank Engine or Bob the Builder songs in the van at 2 a.m. (no shame).

 

 

A mix of high drama, deep scars, and stupid laughter.
The tracks we make carries a bit of all that, from beauty to chaos, the humor, the pain.
Our sound isn’t just music. It’s our personality  stitched into riffs, screams, and melodies we hope you can feel. - Gerard
