View Knockout Theory's EPK Knockout Theory was born and raised in the basement of a suburban home in Flemington, New Jersey. As the brainchild of former rivals Brian Strelko and Jeff Hersch, Knockout Theory has proved to be an unstoppable punk rock machine since their beginning in August 2007. While playing in previous bands for many years, the members of the punk/rock quartet had already set the stage for a triumphant future. In the group’s formation, Hersch and Strelko recruited fellow guitarist Derek Munro to play lead, as well as the incomparable Mike Carbone to claim his rightful throne on the drums. All were determined to make a lasting effect on New Jersey’s fading music scene. Knockout Theory truly cannot be restricted to only one genre. As a self-proclaimed "melodic punk rock" group, this untamed-beast of a band fuses traditional fast punk rock in the name of Pennywise and NOFX with guitar and vocal harmonies in the same vein as A Wilhelm Scream and No Trigger. Complex solos and lively riffs accompanied by the occasional hardcore break down add a very mature touch to the band’s sound; bursts of ska and reggae are also prevalent in a night’s set. With heavy influences in 90s punk rock and melodic hardcore, the group's sound is topped off with powerful lyrics ranging anywhere from social issues to personal stories. Knockout Theory’s live shows are full of non-stop energy and their dedication to the music is blatantly obvious. With the release of their debut full length Killing the Past in 2008, the band has established a large fan base not only throughout North America, but in Japan, Germany, and Australia as well. They have accomplished the unthinkable in only one year and their future only holds more opportunities for the young punk rock quartet. With an appearance on Fox’s Fearless Music, sponsorship by Amp Energy, and a song featured on the upcoming High School Music Goes Punk compilation, U.S. Tour plans for 2009 are already underway with the band planning on hitting most of the East Coast as well as parts of the Midwest. Hide your mothers, sisters and daughters. Plans for a new full length are in the works for 2009. 2 NEW T-SHIRTS OUT NOW! SAVE THE RADIO!
