Sun Reporter

September 7, 2006

Hometown: Baltimore

Current members: Josh Korel, vocals; Finch Flores, guitars and vocals; Anthony Williams, drums and vocals; Mike Harker, guitar; Eric Flores, bass and vocals

Founded in: 2005

Style: post-punk and hardcore

Influenced by: The Mars Volta, Coheed and Cambria, Atreyu, Converge

Notable: The band recorded a four-song EP late last year, and a new album is in the works. In April, they set out on a two-week tour to Florida in a cramped, stinky Winnebego.

Quotable: "It was awesome, besides the fact it smelled like gas," Finch Flores said. "That kind of ruined it. There were two beds -- a full size and another full size, but we had six, seven people. So somebody had to sleep on the floor. I slept on the floor one night and seriously got sick from it. It smelled like a gas tank all night. It was, like, leaking gas. It was crazy."
