The Bouncing Souls

The Jumping Souls began in 1987 using the intention of playing loud fast three-chord party music around their indigenous NJ; besides, it offered them something to accomplish while these were in senior high school. Upon graduation and after many years of desperate for a label release a their records, close friends Greg Attonito (vocals), Pete Steinkopf (acoustic guitar), Bryan Kienlen (bass), and Shal Khichi (drums) got some cash collectively and — in accurate D.We.Y. style — created Chunksaah Information in 1993. Upon the forming of their very own label, two EPs had been to check out, entitled Argyle and Neurotic, before they released their initial full-length, THE NICE, the Poor & the Argyle, in 1994. Significant touring and partying had been to follow prior to the music group struck a cope with BYO Information in 1995. Not merely do they re-release their debut record with their follow-up, Maniacal Laughter, however they had been also needs to create a name for themselves by starting for NOFX, the Mighty Mighty Bosstones, 7 Secs, as well as the Descendents, among various other big brands. Their design of singalong, hard-hitting, and passionate pop-punk captured the ears of Epitaph Information in 1997. That same season, their self-titled third record premiered, which not merely called focus on the Jumping Souls all over the world, but also allowed them to keep their full-time careers for some time. The live EP Connect One On kept supporters over in 1998 before their 4th record, Hopeless Romantic, premiered in 1999. Khichi still left the music group in 2000, and ex-Murphy’s Rules/Skinnerbox drummer Michael McDermott changed him immediately after behind the package. THE WAY I Spent My Summertime Vacation made an appearance in springtime 2001. 2 yrs later, the music group set up its most honest materials up to now for the discharge of Anchors Aweigh. That same season, the music group also come up with and released the double-disc WOULD YOU Remember? 15 Many years of the Jumping Souls, which comprehensively noted the guys off their humble D.We.Y. roots to the first 2000s. Another Dvd movie, a live one, arrived in Sept 2005 on Kung Fu, along with a live two-disc record followed 8 weeks down the road Chunksaah. The Jumping Souls’ next correct studio work, The Silver Record, made an appearance in June 2006; in special event, the Souls performed a string of six sold-out displays at N.Con.C.’s Knitting Stock before its discharge. The music group then spent the complete summertime on Warped’s primary stage. The Souls spent 2009 liberating some digital and vinyl fabric singles dubbed the 20th Anniversary Series, the tunes that would ultimately become their 8th recording, 2010’s Ghosts within the Boardwalk, that was released through Chunksaah. In 2012 the punk stalwarts authorized on with Rise Information and released their ninth recording, Comet, which debuted at quantity 110 within the Billboard 200 graph.
