Band: White Collar
From: Victoria, British Columbia
Their formation story:
"Me (Lewis) and Lilly started tracking for this in summer 2022 cause we wanted to do a band to vent some frustration from all the whack parody subculture shit we see everywhere. A lot of stuff doesn’t seem real anymore and that makes for a lot of material."
Their sound in their own words:
"Exactly how we feel and play: angry, impatient, stupid, ugly, and mean. All the fun stuff.
"We listen and look to The Fix, White Cross, Vile, United Mutation, Negative FX, and the uglier and more juvenile side of punk for inspiration."
Latest release info:
"We just put out a 4-track demo cassette on Slow Death Records, I originally tracked the instruments as a spur the moment scratch demo in September 2022 but we ended up liking how botched it sounded with everything being a bit off so we put Lilly on it in and sent it to the plant."
Future plans:
"Finishing up tracking our 12-song 12-inch EP, it’s about half done. Our other bands, Bootlicker, Crosshairs, and Headcheese tend to take up big chunks of our time so we wanna book as much in between as possible. We got some gigs coming up that will be fun and maybe a couple weekend stints to get the ball rolling. Book us!"
What other bands from their region should we check out?
"Dispösal tear it up, they’ve held it down in Victoria the past few years. This new band Bad Beat are playing soon and they have a solid demo with crazy art so looking forward to that."
