Big Drill Car

Big Drill Car is an American punk rock band hailing from Huntington Beach, California, known for their melodic yet powerful sound that blends elements of punk, power pop, and hardcore. Formed in 1987, the group established itself within the flourishing Southern California punk scene of the late 80s and early 90s. The band's lineup includes Frank Daly on vocals, Mark Arnold on lead guitar, Bob Thomson on bass, and Danny Marcroft on the drums—each bringing a unique energy to their recordings and dynamic live shows.

The band's initial releases, "Small Block" in 1988 followed by "CD Type Thing" in 1989, and "Batch" in 1991, quickly gained traction in the underground scene with their distinctive fast-paced riffs and catchy hooks. After these successful releases, they continued to hone their sound, releasing "No Worse for the Wear" in 1994, showcasing the band's tight musicianship and lyrical introspection. Despite a hiatus in the late '90s, Big Drill Car made a triumphant return to their fans with a live album, "Toured," which capably captured the raw energy and enthusiasm of their stage performances. Their most recent endeavor, "A Never Ending Endeavor," serves as a reminder of their persistent relevance and enduring appeal in the punk rock genre, proving that Big Drill Car's musical journey is indeed far from over.
