Formed: Stockton, California, USA, as The Defectors

According to their MySpace bio, "Chris Isaak tried out for the band (long before he was famous), but Nick and Brian didn't let him in because he couldn't play guitar fast enough", and original singer Dexter (Neil Schafer) was booted out after pulling a knife on his bandmates. Apart from all that, Soundtrack For Trouble is a semi-classic piece of US hardcore, very fast but distinguished by very clear vocals and very strong tunes. That's a lot of verys, I know".

They have reformed and recorded a few times since.
