The Disobedients

The Disobedients is a punk band. They were founded by members Jurmicide (vocals), Killjoy (guitar) and Longbear (bass) in Knoxville, Tennessee in 2005, adding drummer Jere shortly thereafter. The Disobedients is an old-school punk act spewing unapologetic political platitudes, bathroom-humor vulgarities, and no-apologies inflammatories. Their shows have become marked by the rising number of prophylactics and feminine hygeine products being thrown back and forth between band and audience. In October of 2005, the Disobedients recorded Getta Whiffa Dis, a five-track preview disc. Despite its lack of "official" distribution, the disc quickly found its way to faraway places such as Sweden, South Africa, Australia and Israel and began receiving attention from DIY media sources in those countries. It was also quickly picked up by Cyco Loco Radio in Oakland, California and Creep13Punx Radioin Billings, Montana. Reviews are currently awaiting publication in more "major" publications, such as Maximum Rock N' Roll.

In February 2006, the band completed recording their upcoming full-length, tentatively titled Big Time Swinging at Knoxville's Sound Lair studio, which is scheduled for a fall 2006 release. The Disobedients are currently pursuing an aggressive roster of shows in the southeast United States.

In April 2006, the band was interviewed in the The Knoxville News-Sentinel and praised for their dedication to the re-vitalization of the Knoxville, Tennessee underground music scene.

The Disobedients are published under PhenomInal Enigma Publishing registered ASCAP.
