THE NEW ALBUM IS HERE! Seventeen tracks of raw punk for $7. Contact us to order. Sorry for the delay!! It's been a gnarly ride to say the least. 
We've lost multiple members to addiction, some just couldn't pull their heads out of their asses long enough to smell the coffee. Considering the business aspect of things, money has never been on our side, and we've unfortunately come across lots of sheisty folk and folk downright insensible. We changed rehearsal spaces several times, destroyed equipment, shredded hundreds of drum sticks into tinder; we recruited minors and morons to fill in when no one else was there, and we worked endless hours just to keep it alive. This album is the bastard child of our struggle. We love it. Rock is our lives; it was not meant to be pretty and it was not meant to be easy. If it doesn't piss someone off, you're not doing it right. 
Thanks so much to Steve Ignorant, Josh Parten, Conor P. Smith, Michael Conway, Collin Clifford, Kill Kops, Fi Xi, Lao Tzu, and everyone who's been there, for better or for worse. We still have a lot more to give!

Kick It!
BIOGRAPHY

	Forget what you think you know! Kick It! has come on a mission to shed light on liberty, democracy, punk rock and anarchism. Kick It! formed in Portland, OR November 2014 under the astute guidance of their eccentric guitar player and singer, Eric Pelletier. Kick It! wants to give back to the community by spreading awareness and creating autonomy through art and music. Their sound has been compared to Crass, Rudimentary Peni, Aus-Rotten and The Partisans. Kick It!’s message incorporates elements of eastern philosophy with syndicalism, anti-sexism, anti-prejudice, environmentalism, songs about good times and even songs about f*** all, which they smash in your face with the raw power of anarcho-punk rock!

	Eric had been toying with the idea of the band since 2009. He was living in Oakland California when he decided to take a break from acoustic music and try out something more direct. From the beginning, finding serious musicians was difficult. The same goes for most bands, but in the genre of punk rock it’s even worse. They lost multiple members to addiction; some just couldn't pull their heads out of their asses long enough to smell the coffee. Before settling on Collin the band had at least eight other drummers, and as of yet there have been eight different bass players and three different singers. When Eric met Collin in 2014 they instantly hit it off. Daniel Mys was Kick It!’s first bass player. They played their first show on a Tuesday, May 27th 2014 at the Ash St Saloon under the name Necronomics. Due to the strange font the flyer for the show was printed in, many of the flyers got taken down because the C looked like a G, making the band name look like Negronomigs. Soon after that the band name changed to Anonymouse. The name Kick It! had been suggested, but Daniel would not accept anything he did not conceive, and he was close to leaving the band if a name was not chosen. Anonymouse was the lesser of two evils: (the larger being Gacy’s Boys). As their sigil, Anonymouse took Mickey Mouse wielding a wrench and wearing a Guy Faux mask. Their first demo release was as Anonymouse on cassette tape.

	Eventually Daniel revealed that he was using heroin and leaving the band to go to rehab. There was some drama, but band moved on and looked to the future. With Daniel gone, the name Kick It! was finalized. The band recruited Matt, an ex-baseball player from Korea, to play bass. Despite Matt being an excellent bass player and song writer, he also had a substance abuse problem which eventually lead him to dropping off the face of the earth. Regardless, Kick It! continued strong, knowing that the cause was more important than the journey. They changed rehearsal spaces several times, destroyed equipment, shredded hundreds of drum sticks into tinder; they recruited minors and morons to fill in when no one else was there, and worked endless hours just to keep it alive. Finally in March of 2016 they released their first decently recorded album, Rebel Rockers. In their own words: “This album is the bastard child of our struggle. We love it. Rock is our lives; it was not meant to be pretty and it was not meant to be easy. If it doesn't piss someone off, you're not doing it right.”

	Kick It! is still doing just that, pissing off the right people. They will continue to fight against tyranny, racism, sexism, pollution and injustice in anyway they can.
