biographical info
The Afterschool Cobra Gang is a garage rock band hailing from Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. The band – which formed in December 2010 - is comprised of Fab Claxton (lead singer, rhythm guitar), Fraz (lead guitar, backing vocals), Duane McDonald (bass) and Monty Parsons (drums). The boys have quickly gelled to create their own greasy, jacked-up brand of garage rock. Imagine The Undertones and The Jam on a week-long bender chaperoned by a Nuggets box-set and you’re on the right track. They arrive at their harmony-driven, Rickenbacker rockin’ sound by way of classic punk, power pop, and the Madchester scene – but this is a band that is more than the mere sum of its influences. Their music harkens back to a day when rock and roll meant something. The Afterschool Cobra Gang is here........playground bullies beware!
