Shooting Tsars

"Hailing from the storied streets of Denton, Texas Skacore band Shooting Tsars are etching their own chapter into the annals of skate punk. Fronted by Randall Day (bass/vocals) and Cub Moore (rhythm guitar/vocals), Shooting Tsars screams about everything from political discourse to pizza. The distorted musical wailings of Kane Creasey (lead guitar) add the perfect accent to the heavy foundation laid by Randall and Cub, completed by the raw yet educated rhythm kept by Nick Allen (drums). Hot off of a stellar split EP with punk legends Escape From the Zoo, their fusion of ska and melodic hardcore seamlessly blends into a sound that is uniquely Tsars while still dripping with unmistakable Denton energy. You’d be hard pressed to find another band that can insert lyrics like “stuffed crust crucible” and “deep dish dynamite” right before a guitar solo. They are the perfect soundtrack for a summer afternoon at the skatepark with your crew. They might make you dance, they might make you mosh, but you’ll always have fun when partying with Shooting Tsars." - Kennedy Rice
