Afterbirth cartoons
a steady explosion of beat punk rock
...from Phoenix.
Alvah, G and Matt were 90’s kids who grew up on a steady diet of Nicktoons, Ninja Turtles, Heathcliff, PowerPuff Girls, and Captain Planet which turned them into stoner, queer deviants and social justice warriors who are fighting the good fight through three-chord punk fucking rock.
They are influenced by everything from Nirvana and Dead Kennedys, to Tenacious D and the writings of the Beat Generation. Their music is straight-forward, earnest, and biting as they strike out at everything wrong with the world.
After two successful tours headlining packed punk and DIY venues across the west coast in 2022, including gigs opening for Agent Orange (Epitaph Records) at the Whisky a-Go-Go (Los Angeles) and headlining at Bottom of the Hill (San Francisco), the band has more than 100,000 streams and is working on their second album for release on May 30, 2023 ("Fire Flower") and an accompanying West Coast tour.
