History
SYMBOL SIX
SYMBOL SIX was born in 1980 out of the ashes of hardcore punk bands, Der Stab, Ohio’s Necros, and garage punk band, Gaudy Trash. They represented the change that the Los Angeles punk scene was going through as the old Hollywood-Masque scene was fading away and a new sound was coming from the beaches, the Inland Empire, and from Orange County. SYMBOL SIX took their classic 2-guitar assault sound with big hooks to audiences all over So Cal.
SYMBOL SIX began playing with future legends: Social Distortion, Red Cross, Adolescents, T.S.O.L., Bad Religion, Youth Brigade, CH3, Detours, 45 Grave , Descendents and Agent Orange, just to name a few. The Los Angeles music scene was extreme, dangerous and like no other. SYMBOL SIX was there square in the middle of it all, kickin’ ass and taking names. By late 1981 the band recorded their legendary debut 4 song EP “SYMBOL SIX” on Posh Boy records. Along with worldwide record distribution and radio play, SYMBOL SIX was given heavy rotation on L.A.’s KROQ by the legendary Rodney Bingenhiemer. SYMBOL SIX had arrived at upper tier status and were now fast becoming one of the best bands on the scene, and all by the age of 15.
Today, SYMBOL SIX is back and they bring to you the highly anticipated, all new, full-strength album, “Monsters 11” and a whole lot more!!!!
