Album Notes & Community Reviews

Operating within the thriving Venice, California skate punk scene, the band forged an abrasive yet deeply grooving hybrid of rapid-fire punk and technical metal. 'Split Image' bridges the gap between urban skateboard culture and the aggressive riffing typical of thrash. Released on the label owned by Suicidal Tendencies' Mike Muir, it stands as a definitive artifact of West Coast crossover.
