Guttermouth with New Threat

This is the biggest show of the season! Every bonafide surfer, skater, punk rocker will come out of the woodwork for this one! From the core of the 80's punk rock scene in SoCal, and irreverent and bawdy in true Outer Banks style, Guttermouth made up an important part of the soundtrack our our lives, and many, many of those epic surf VHS tapes we all watched over and over in the 80's and 90's. Still killing it, you have to come see them blow up the stage at The Pit on Thursday, September 13th!

Guttermouth is an American punk rock band formed in 1988 in Huntington Beach, California and currently recording for Hopeless Records. They have released nine full-length studio albums and two live albums and have toured extensively, including performances on the Vans Warped Tour. They are infamous for their outrageous lyrics and behavior which are deliberately explicit, offensive and intended to shock, though usually in a humorous and sarcastic manner. This behavior has sometimes resulted in high-profile problems for the band, such as being banned from performing in Canada for eighteen months and leaving the 2004 Warped Tour amidst controversy over their political views and attitudes towards other performers.

Their music was heavily influenced by the Los Angeles and Orange County punk rock scenes of the 1980s which included bands like the Adolescents, The Vandals, Social Distortion, Fear, the Descendents, Angry Samoans, Bad Religion and Black Flag.[5] From these influences Guttermouth developed their own style of fast punk tempos with humorously sarcastic and offensive lyrics coupled with equally outrageous and offensive behavior, developing a reputation for chaotic live shows.
