400 Blows- Sickness & Health

Label: Org Music

Released 2011

Formed in Los Angeles in 1997 after a few lineup changes, 400 Blows gained notoriety throughout Los Angeles and beyond with their menacing stage presence which would practically destroy everything in its path. 1998 saw the release of their first record “3.19.98” and after three years of laying siege to eardrums and soundboards everywhere, the sixteen track double record “Black Rainbow” had them touring with At the Drive In in 2001. Showing no signs of slowing down, 400 Blows had hit the ground running when they signed to the lionized roster of Gold Standard Laboratories in 2005 to release “Angel’s Trumpets and Devil’s Trombones,” which was followed by a European tour with The Locust and appearances with The Mars Volta at All Tomorrows Parties. Following a couple more lineup changes on drums and guitar over the next few years, 400 Blows ceased playing in 2010 and wrote this here record “Sickness & Health” with the full intention of getting back in the saddle to bring their sonic bedlam back to the masses.
