Audio Karate comprised childhood friends from Rosemead, CA: vocalist/guitarist Art Barrios, bassist/vocalist Justo Gonzalez, drummer Gabriel Camacho and guitarist Jason Camacho (those last two being cousins). They all bonded over a shared love of both '80s skatepunk and '70s metal, and in May 2002, released their debut of furiously catchy SoCal pop-punk via Kung Fu Records titled Space Camp. Tour dates with acts like <a href="spotify:artist:3LC8PXXgk7YtAIobtjSdNi">the Ataris</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:5oNVC8oAZ9Tmhnx5kLihgC">Tsunami Bomb</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:4AqIRTZF6DDmKmdorgFug6">the Vandals</a> followed, as did a stretch on the 2004 Warped Tour. Audio Karate's Warped appearance was well timed, coinciding with the June release of their matured (and very well-received) follow-up, Lady Melody, which was produced by Bill Stevenson (<a href="spotify:artist:1FGH4Bh7g9W6V4fUcKZWp5">Descendents</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4UWlpzLFbNdlaRXuZeTPlH">ALL</a>, etc). More touring was completed before the guys announced at year's end that they would be taking a "vacation" for an undisclosed amount of time. Audio Karate resurfaced in the spring of 2006 with the notice that they were working on a new album, in addition to writing the score and soundtrack -- music much different than their past efforts -- for the Spanish language independent film, Maquillaje. In the meantime, Jason Camacho had also opened his own studio Lady Melody, named after the band's 2004 album. ~ Corey Apar, Rovi
