The name originated during a time period where nearly every member of the crew owned an old Volkswagen Beetle. Anyone who has ever owned one of these classic vehicles will understand the day to day struggle of just keeping the machine road worthy. The credo Pride Through Strife was imagined by the oldest of the three brothers (Aaron) and was stenciled into the roof of his '60's VW as a constant reminder that through our adversities and experiences we are empowered. Learning through our struggles; whether it was replacing a wheel on the side of the highway, or pulling an engine at 3am just to ensure a ride to work. We discovered that working together we could accomplish something seemingly impossible. These experiences would inevitably set the foundation of our entire outlook upon life, learning to take pride in the the strength gained through hard work. This is the fundamental idea behind "Pride Through Strife" which makes our music so cohesive. It's the connection between our peers, the fans, our friends and family that really drives this passionate music out of our souls.
