The band member trading cards were also a nice touch. Musically, this bounces between Northern California vats punk and Midwestern hardcore with, as Donny Osmond would say, "a little bit rock'n'roll" veined through thrashy beats, brittle guitars, and raw production. They seem to be enjoying themselves and it comes across on wax. "

How well has that worked out for the city in the past (can you say Chief Moose, Chief Kroeker, and what, half a dozen school superintendents)?

Pass the severance package, please.

The next time we have a mayoral election with 20 candidates I'm either writing in "fluoride" or "Bill Nye".

We will Rock your SKAcks off with our FunkyPunk riffs, smooth Groovin' jams, and raw power in the form of shreds. Also the bassist has Metal in his legs.
When you combine face melting rock with catchy pop hooks and punk riffs you get Give It FM. Conceived in 2012 in the hellish depths of a SW Portland basement, we have emerged victorious after slaying the demons who sought to keep our rock in a cage.

Demure, Give it FM and Kings & Vagabonds

But if you guys want to make me go again, sure. Maybe next time I can go to the candy factory or the kitten mansion.

With Gays making up roughly 10% of the population and with approximately 20 black people in Portland, that would leave a total of 2 black Gays in Portland.
Doesn't sound like it's gonna be much of a celebration. ;)
