Snot

Southern California punks have had a troubled history, releasing only 1 album with original vocalist Lynn Straight, before his tragic death in a car accident. In their new form, a second reunion, following one in 2008, they still pack an impact live. While punk music doesn’t pride itself in a particular ‘skill’ at music, it is clear the members of Snot know what they can play and know how to play it well. New vocalist Tommy ”Vext” Cummings does a good job filling in for Straight, instead of trying to imitate Straight exactly, he brings his own style and experience to it, while still making the songs sounds unmistakably like Snot. This current reunion is also evidence that while haven’t got ‘better’ with age – their sound needs a certain youthful energy – they haven’t by any means got any worse, with all members of the band constantly moving throughout the set, keeping the live energy, while still playing their songs with ease and skill. Their brand of aggressive hard core punk and metal most definitely isn’t for everyone, but if you are looking for a band you can jump around and mosh to, Snot are ones you should definitely check out.

Snot were incredible live. The new singer is fantastic, and the entire band had so much energy on stage. Watching 'Get Some' live was a real treat which I've been waiting 18 years for since its release. I would love it if Snot wrote some new music, but for now I am glad I got to see them live. The support acts were awesome as well. Definitely go see them live if you're an old Snot fan or you love good metal.

My favorite booger band from SB! Saw their first show and many others in SB & LA. Interviewed them for a local music rag & they played a great IV show for us too!Been wanting to hear them again, hear the singer is killer! From kronix,mf pit bulls and such to huge band playing mega stars, SNOT ROCKS!
