Face to Face and Lagwagon and embarking on a co-headlining tour that will be stopping at the Skyway Theatre on Friday, October 4th.
Southern California outfit Face to Face got together in the early ’90s, delivering no-frills, fast-paced blasts that trod familiar anti-authority punk ground. Following their 1992 debut, Don’t Turn Away, their popularity peaked, joining contemporaries NOFX and the Offspring as punk hit mainstream with the Warped Tour crowd. After an extended hiatus and almost a decade removed from their prior release, they returned with a matured, restrained punk-rock sound that carried them into the 2010s. In fall 2003, Face to Face disbanded after 13 years and six albums. Two years later, the retrospective Shoot the Moon: The Essential Collection was released on Keith’s Antagonist Records. In 2008, Keith announced that the lineup that recorded Iggnorance Is Bloss and Reactionaary would be reuniting as Face to Face. Their tenth LP, Protection, was released in early 2016, featuring the single “Bent But Not Broken.” A 7″ single, “Say What You Want” backed with “I. Me, Mine,” was released the following summer.
Goleta, California’s Lagwagon first burst on the scene way back in 1988 playing a unique brand of speedy, highly technical pop-punk that made them one of the most influential punk bands of the 90’s. They’ve influenced hundreds of thousands of kids, been around the world more times than Ferdinand Magellan and twisted and redefined themselves over the course of a career that spans almost twenty-five years.
Joining in on the fun will be MakeWar. MakeWar is about a fight. A fight against ignorance. And laziness. A fight against your inner demons. A fight to stay conscious. So you can have one more drink with your friends. A fight to do what you want instead of what you’re suppose to. A fight that isn’t violent. Or full of hate. This fight is about knocking down what’s holding you back. That’s why MakeWar sounds like letting go. It’s fighting depression by embracing aggression. And embracing everyone around you who’s doing that too. MakeWar is Jose, Greg and Edwin. Welcome to our fight.
