Kill Your Stereo

MxPx has made more of an impact on the pop punk scene than any other band hands down. After 18 years and 2.5 million album sales they still manage to capture the energy, confusion and rebellion amongst their fans. As Absolute Punk so succinctly put it “Without MxPx this website would not exist.” The Ataris story reads like a punk-rock fairy tale: teenager lives in boring mid-western town; goes to a Vandals show and gives the band a tape; weeks later gets a call from Vandals bassist (and owner of Kung Fu Records) Joe Escalante asking him to record for his label; moves to California and puts band together…the rest as they say is history. MxPx's Mike Herrera is teaming up with the front man of The Ataris, Kris Roe and the drummer of The Summer Obsession, Chris Wilson (formerly of Good Charlotte) to deliver this once in a lifetime opportunity to get up close and personal to the men behind the songs that seemed to spur on your teenage angst.

Dreamy spires and Inspector Morse, Oxford's much more than a university city, it's a musical hotbed, re-shaping genres and planting large markers in the sand.
