L.A.'s aggressive rock four-piece U.P.O. consists of vocalist Shawn Albro, guitarist Chris Weber, bassist Ben "Crouch" Shirley, and drummer Tommy Holt. Though both Albro and <a href="spotify:artist:1p6wR69pnH9LBWZvwliuz2">Weber</a> lived in the same city, they met at England's Reading Festival in the mid-'90s. By 1997, they had crafted a demo that attracted major-label interest and the duo needed a rhythm section; after some searching, they hooked up with <a href="spotify:artist:45BrbJ7Lk4AYq2WF3FyMTU">Shirley</a>, a friend of Albro's, and found Holt through an ad he placed in the newspaper. U.P.O. signed to Epic and released their debut album, No Pleasantries, in mid-2000. Their second album, Heavy, was issued four years later. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi
