TheLastDitch Austin, Texas

TLD is a high octane,full tilt RNR machine. Fast songs, midtempo stompers, TLD deliver the goods. Verses are like hard jabs, choruses are like knockout blows, you know they're coming, you know they're gonna be good! Songs are hooky and melodic with sing a long choruses. A sound all their own but you'll get your fill of 70's-80's punk (NY,Cali,UK) +bits of Oi!-hardcore/glam. 100%RNR! CRANK IT UP! ... more
