DAN is three stoned guys armed with a Tascam Portastudio 8-track, a drum machine, and a few guitars and microphones who strive for the most obnoxious sound they could possibly make. It's dirty punk rock with all the fat cut out. If you don't get it, then go fuck yourself. Let me clear some shit up right now, DAN is not anyone in the band's name. We are named after John Goodman's greatest role of all-time, Dan Connors from Rosanne.


It all started mid 2009 when a werido local musician known as Dables got together with the punk/funk/lo-fi psychedelia weirdness of The Albino Porch Monkeys and over many bong hits and beer cans, potato chips, and camaraderie, the three guys: David Walker, Sid Id, and Clayton Marks decided to form a new band.

This brings us to the two DAN mission statements:

1.) We aims to piss you off. We want you howling at the sky in anger and turmoil after listening to DAN. We want to upset the rest of your day with horribly catchy racket that you can't get out of your head no matter how hard you try. We want your ears to bleed and we play LOUD AS FUCK.

2.) We aims to write whatever the hell we want. If we want our songs to be 6 seconds long, then by god we will write a 6 second song about farting while titfucking.  Totally devoid of morals or intelligence, no topics are off limits for DAN---no matter how stupid, weird, or offensive, which coincidentally describes our sound perfectly!   We heed to no religion, gender, race, values or culture. We hate them all and we think those who can't laugh at themselves sometimes are assholes! We will never be censored for any reason, despite those who may think so. They can suck it! We will write whatever kind of genre we feel like, we will fart in microphones and call it music if we feel the need to do so, which is a good idea and we should put fart songs on the next album.

Our first album came out in September 2009 and is titled "Magic Mountain". It is the definition of self-indulgence. It's pretty funny though, even though we were incredibly stoned the entire recording.

Our second album was recorded in August 2009, but we lazily didn't release it until early 2010 and is called "The Whatever EP". It is our experimental, free-form jam album. 6 tracks clocking in at almost a full hour. Good luck getting through that noisy weird-ass shit!

Our third album came out in April 2010 and is called "Grandparents Forever". It is a return to our short, abrasive, psychedelic punk rock style. DAN agrees that it's much better then the first album and we worked harder on it too. 

This is the end of what we call "The Basement Trilogy" albums. Magic Mountain, The Whatever EP, & Grandparents Forever. Our first 3 albums were all recorded in Sid's parent's house's basement on the same Tascam 8-Track Portastudio appropriately known as "Mr. Tascam". The Basement was a dusty, stinky, cat-infested hippie dungeon with no air conditioning. At least 50 different people came through that place in and got fucked up or hung out or jammed with us during the 2 years that they lived there and it was a glorious time for all....And then Sid moved, and we lost our beloved studio and practice space.

Our fourth album, which we starting recording immediately after Sid moved, titled "Honey Berry Surprise" was never finished. Why? Because we got about 10 songs in and then some stupid shit went down. First off, it was hard to practice at Sid's parent's new place because it's in a garage in a big neighborhood and people don't like us being loud so we got shut down a lot. Secondly, David and Sid got into an argument over a chick because they are both stupid. Thirdly, Clayton got busted with weed by the cops, got kicked out and moved to the other side of Greenville and was without a car. Sadly, we went on an indefinite hiatus for over a year and officially called it quits sometime in 2012 and released the final recordings as "Honey Berry Surprise".

RIP DAN 2009-2012.
