Members also played in: Lux Couragous, Bearchild, Everything Sux, War Babies, Outskirts, NYC Heahunters, and many others. This was debut album from New York's Deep Pockets, a post-hardcore quartet from Brooklyn and Queens, New York. Deep Pockets play distorted, frustrated music: heavy, jangly, distorted guitar and a swirling rhythm section hover around singer Matthew Brennan's vocals, all elements holding level then exploding.

Fans of Silkworm and other 1990s midwestern rock-influenced blue-collar posthardcore, Deep Pockets wear their influences on their sleeves, but relocate that sound to the outer boroughs of New York and make it uniquely their own.
