Greetings,

We are a singer/guitarist, guitarist and bassist looking for a drum-
playing fourth to help us acheive our goals as a band. We are inspired
by the brisk tempos, bluntness, humor and spirit of early West Coast
hardcore (Adolescents, Descendents, Morris-era Black Flag, Dead
Kenendys, Circle Jerks, etc.), some pop-punk (Screeching Weasel, The
Queers, The Ergs, etc.) and punk-ish garage rock (The Gloryholes,
Nobunny, etc.). If you're into stuff on SST, Lookout! or Dirtnap,
you've probably got an idea of what we're going for.

Our drummer must play fast and precise, even if not complex parts. Our
songs are simple, but we hope to evolve.

Also, and this is important, we're all big fucking dorks and write
about Star Trek and dick jokes, in addition to more pointed songs.
Notice we referenced The Queers, Screeching Weasel, Descendents and
The Ergs. If you're not down with "See Ya Later Fuckface" or "I Hate
Led Zeppelin," then we're not the band for you. Furthermore, you'll
need to be of legal drinking age, not because we're Dillinger Four,
but because we're not Minor Threat either.

We're a band of modest ambition, looking to self-release a couple
singles and play some parties. No big tours, but we're not ruling out
some regional gigging. We'd like to not suck, but we don't take
ourselves too seriously.

Thanks, y'all
