ADHD, based out of the Washington, DC area, has been playing in venues since 2002. Originally conceived by lead guitarist Rob Fishkin and rhythm guitarist Larry Colangelo, ADHD soon expanded with the additions of Jordan Glines on vocals and piano, Andy Thompson on bass and synths, and Jackson Harar on drums. All five members have diverse musical backgrounds, but combined, their talent and creativity has produced a sound with influences ranging from Rage Against the Machine to Story of the Year to Lostprophets to Foo Fighters to The Used, along with a varied assortment of keyboards and synths. The band strives to combine the best elements of all styles of rock to develop a sound that captures the attention of those tired of the oversaturated "blah rock" in mainstream media.

Currently, ADHD's single "Our Time" can be heard in regular rotation on XM Satellite Radio Channel 29, and has been featured on DC101, a Washington D.C. rock station Fault (one of the most requested songs of the day), and DC’s Z104 as part of the Capital Scene show.

While the band enjoys working in the studio, ADHD truly thrives and delivers in live shows. Whether it be opening for the Nappy Roots at Kenyon college in Ohio, reaching the regional semifinals in the Emergenza Worldwide Battle of the Bands or consistently rocking legendary DC clubs like the Black Cat and DC9, it is clear that ADHD has established themselves as a solid, immensely entertaining band with a rapidly developing fan base. With the 2005 release of their newest ep, "Acts up" ADHD proves that they have what it takes to deliver whats next in rock.

However, ADHD's influence is so weak that, apparently, they write articles about themselves that are really nothing more than narcassistic, self-aggrandizing rants about themselves. On a related note, the band has gained notoriety in the wikipedia universe for their weekly self-dick-sucking sessions, whereby each member sucks his own dick after thinking of more lame ass things to write about themselves. Hopefully, ADHD members will all contract AIDS, cancer, or some other life-threatening illness and pass the diseases off to their family members and friends.
