In the ever turbulent world of punk rock music, New York City claims the Ramones and Los Angeles proudly boasts Pennywise, the most significant hardcore band to emerge from SoCal punk’s second wave. A thriving, ground-breaking punk rock band for over 25years, the Hermosa Beach group has seen members come and go but it’s relentless, in-your-face, middle finger in the air, anthem-chanting sound has never wavered one iota.
The genesis of Pennywise can be traced back to the South Bay 1988 when punk couldn’t be less popular and metal ruled the roost. The four original members of Pennywise immediately crafted a style all its own a tidal wave of California hardcore, melodic surf punk and optimistic anthems that went against the seek-and-destroy ethos of its era.
The band would go on to amass an international following through relentless touring and a melodic high energy sound merging melodic surf punk, blistering hardcore and the classic punk of their youth. The group has solidified their place in punk history with songs like the raging “F Authority,” “Alien” and the band’s now legendary ode to brotherhood and departed friends “Bro Hymn.”
