Bio - Chuk Rambling on and on
The music moves us, and we seek whatever treasures we can find - we uncover the possibilities hidden within it. This art is the culmination of years of dedicated labor, in the effort to make something fantastic, an outstanding and remarkable musical experience that will not ever disappoint or leave the listener wanting for anything, but more. We have been hidden away in our kitchen, cooking it up, and toiling at this album bit by bit, to make it the absolute best representation of us that it can be. The thought of finally looking out at the people who attend our CD release concert, just sends shivers down my spine. I am very excited about it, and proud of the work we have wrought. Give us a listen, read the lyrics as you hear it, and you'll find yourself identifying with what the words say. We all have had similar experiences, it's part of becoming an adult in the human condition... we have to take our lumps. Then we open our eyes one day to find, we can take the hits, or we can make the hits, hit back. So our music is the perfect catharsis for us to do just that. We strike back. ~Chuck Rocker
