The Bouncing Souls

Profile:
Melodic "sing along" pop punk band from New Jersey, originally formed in 1987 while the band members were still in high school. In 1993, They formed Chunksaah Records to release their early material. After heavy touring they eventually signed a deal with BYO Records in 1995, re-releasing their original LP + their sophomore LP. In 1997 they signed to Epitaph, where they stayed until 2006. Following that, they released some more material through Chunksaah before signing to Rise Records for their ninth full-length.

The band was formed by Greg Attonito (vocals), Pete Steinkopf aka The Pete (guitar), Bryan Kienlen aka Papillon (bass) and Shal Khichi (drums). The lineup has stayed consistent with the exception of the drummer. Original drummer Shal Khichi was with them until 1999, when he left and was replaced with Michael McDermott (2). In 2013 McDermott left and was replaced by George Rebelo.

One of my favorite bands through the years. My first release by when was the 1997 self-titled album w/ the black & yellow & red cover. Got it from the band when they were on tour with The Dwarves, Dropkick Murphys and The Distillers way back when. I remember when that show American High was on PBS back then. The Bouncing Souls did the theme song from that show. I've got a cool Bouncing Souls hoodie I found a few years ago rummaging at the local Goodwill outlet where they sell by the pound. The Bouncing Souls are a great band. There's a 100 minute Bouncing Souls documentary you can find on YouTube called Do You Remember. Look it up if you want to know more about the band's history / story.
