The Az. scene consists of few stable good bands, some good shows pass through, though expensive, and not often enough. Their is very little unity amongst the "punks" of the state. The skins had a fairly good unified scene, but everything dies i guess. I have been through watching people stab eachother in the back, turn their back on their bros, and turning the scene of az. into a bullshit soap opera. Nonetheless, their are a few bands keeping hope alive here in the state of arizona, and their are a few kids that actually care about the scene and keeping the city from turning into complete shit.

The Individualz are an awesome, fairly new band, from phoenix. They play offensive ballads of murder and crime, not any pussy bullshit. They are very often playing shows in the phoenix area, and have a cd out. i dont know whats going on with them now, i talked to their now ex-guitarist and he said that the singer left too, so we'll see what happens

The Abiotx is a band out of the west valley. The band consists of ex-Rukus Squad members, a band that tore it up in the local scene about 2 years ago.

The Fatskins a local oi! band of skins from around the way. The band is on a hiatus, as you can see by their dead site. They played with red alert not too long ago, but they are now looking for a new drummer. They are rumored to be having a split with the templars out next year, keep an eye out, its worth it. They have a cd and some shit on the taang records site.

Contr(a)vene another local anarchist band. Dont know much about these guys, check it out, "i hear theyre good".

The Peeps a local all-girl garage punk band from az. Have never seen or heard them, but theyre from az. they have been in a few magazines, and sound a little annoying. (hey i needed to fill space, alright?)

One Foot in the Grave local band that prides themselves on being the oldest punk band in the world. The band consists of members from sun city arizona, a retirement community, with an average age of sixty something!! funny shit.

Authority Zero az. band started in Mesa. Arizona in 1994, playing local gigs about every weekend. Kinda cheesy not too in your face punk, but theyre from arizona.

The Misinformed dunno anything about them. From Phoenix, plays punk, has a site.

The Cremains....i dunno.
