As one person put it "I cant imagine the four of them playing in a band?" But for TAP AND DIE it has made sense from the outset. A band built out of the legacy of their varied past bands (Oscar Paz - STATEMENT, IMPEL, SUNSHINE, KILL HOLIDAY, STATUS AUDIO, ADULT CRASH / Steven Andrew Miller - JULIA, GEHENNA, THE LOCUST, UNBROKEN, KILL HOLIDAY, MEAN SEASON, LANDSLIDE, STATUE / Matt Anderson - HEROIN, END OF THE LINE, SPACEHORSE, founder of record label Gravity / Sam Stothers - NARROWS, SS WARHEAD, GODCOLLIDER, ROD OF CORRECTION) and loved influences. All out there together to make up their first effort as TAP AND DIE Bombs Overhead. This is a culmination of sounds, textures, rhythms, anger, architects; the four working through each other to bring out a conscious sound. Some may say it gets a little tougher as you get older to really put it out there. But they have. They have taken a quick step in a traditional direction, sonically and lyrically, and added what some have sought after for so long...that San Diego sound. A sound that splashes a bit of old, a bit of blue, a true fight of rebelliousness towards things we fought so hard against when we were young.
