Hey, we're The Earaches from Seattle, WA.  We draw on the entire history of rock and roll for our influences, but what comes out is usually referred to as "garage rock" or "punk rock," or "garage punk," and sometimes "punk garage."  While we're comfortable with any of those tags, we just call it HIGH OCTANE ROCK N' ROLL, meaning that we play music that we like, for ourselves, with all the soul we can muster.  Yeah, we've been around the track a few times, but as long as there's gas in the tank we'll keep the hammer down, spurred on by an insatiable love of music.

     We live by the philosophy of the THREE F's: FUN, FUZZ, and FUCK IT IF YOU CAN'T TAKE A JOKE.  We don't like to get too political, but in the current climate it's not only hard to keep quiet, it's irresponsible.  We strongly encourage you to start your own band or fanzine, organize or attend protests and fundraisers, write or e-mail your elected officials, or just raise your voice in any way you can. Don't complain, take action.  And VOTE! We won't tell you what to believe, just to stand up for what you believe in: SILENCE = COMPLICITY.

     This is our new website, and like everything else we do it is a DIY labor of love, so bear with us.   Eventually we want to have more MP3s, an expanded bio section, more frequent news updates, more pix - hell, more EVERYTHING!  We're trying to update at least once a week as we hone our cyber-skills, so keep checking back. Until next time, GET THE REVOLUTION OUT OF YOUR HEAD - TAKE IT INTO THE STREETS INSTEAD!
