THE-FRONT

The-Front was born out of a ghost town appropriately named Casper, Wyoming in 1998. And while the western plains are rich with aged tales of outlaws and rebellious cowboys, theirs is a current day story of perseverance in the wild west. With an exceptional bond to each other and an undying devotion to punk rock and roll, The-Front has become a serious threat to anyone who stands in their way. Expect nothing less than the crash of 77-style guitars combined with the melodic growls of an aggressive female vocalist from these no-holds-barred rockers.

Alternative Press 100 Bands you need to know in 2004/188.1/ March 2004:

"The-Front are a raucous street-punk unit led by feisty, whip-cracking singer Lauren Bayert. The tracks on their self-titled debut will fit perfectly after Joan Jett, but before GBH on your favorite mix tapes."

"Why They Matter: Can thousands of Vans Warped Tour attendees be wrong? The band won an AP-sponsored contest to play five dates on last year's tour, attracting fans as diverse as tour founder Kevin Lyman and members of AFI."



Studs and Punks: http://studsandpunks.co.uk/cdreviews.php?nid=24"Blistering bass riffs, pure unrestricted power, and a raunchy throaty goddess screaming an 80s style punk in your face - fuck I’m going to marry her, and if you are part of the UK Subs, Motörhead, Girlschool, G.B.H., Blondie, X-ray Spex old school and want to throw this lot into a large amplifier that’s ready to explode, this cd is a must."



Punk Planet - Notes from the underground/61/May & June 2004:

"Early 80's style punk featuring driving guitars and snotty female vocals with equal parts rage and melody. It blows away any girl-fronted bands in recent memory. "911", "Be Your Girl", and "Bloody Ink" will make a fan out of the most jaded punks. (BN)"



MMR OCT 2002 233:

"THE-FRONT-- are a pretty straight-forward rockband, although more driving, and they're really catchy, singing with a good range (female) they're too tough to be a pop band. Real Punk Rock."
