YEAR:  2022

PLACE OF ORIGIN:  San Diego, California

YEARS ACTIVE:  2022 - present



WHAT I THINK THE SONG IS ABOUT:

Here's how the band described "Hit The Breaks". "Hit The Breaks" is "a headfirst charge straight into the highest form of kinetic energy, be it sonic, fluid, or pure human euphoria."

PLOSIVS DISCOGRAPHY (Full length albums only):

2022 - Plosivs (Swami Records)
* did not chart on the Billboard 200

MY THOUGHTS ON PLOSIVS:

Plosivs is a new band, but the members of the band have a rich history in punk rock circles. Formed in San Diego, California in 2022, Plosivs is a collaboration of John Reis, who has and is involved in such bands as Rocket From The Crypt, Drive Like Jehu, Pitchfork and most recently as touring member of punk cover supergroup, Me First And The Gimme Gimmes, and Rob Crow of Pinback fame. Throw in Atom Willard on drums who has played in Against Me!, The Offspring and Social Distortion and you got yourself a punk supergroup! Plosivs released their debut and only full length album to date in 2022, titled "Plosivs". This band would seem to have a bright future but because all the members are involved in so many projects, it will be interesting to see how much time is invested in the project. They put out a really solid album so hopefully, all the members shift some focus to this project cause it seems like they may have something here. Not a whole lot more info I can give as the band is just 2 years old.
