After many attempts from Jordan Brunner to get long-time BFF Zeke Berkley to focus and write some music he finally succeeded in the fall of 2006, and thus End Transmission was born. Zeke wrote some songs. Jordan helped. They recorded some demos in Jordan's bedroom. They thought it was pretty good. It wasn't.
They continued to write and record demo after acoustic demo, and eventually decided that in order to rock greater numbers of people, electric guitars and a drummer would be necessary. Enter Hunter "R0llz R0yc3" Cook. With his amazing drummabilities, Hunter added an important element to their sound...drums! Realizing that it would also benefit them greatly to add a bassist to the line up, they recruited Israeli celebrity Jake Eaton. This quickly led to playing awesome shows that rocked people's faces completely off. Serioulsy, people are still missing their faces from those original shows.
In April of 2008, End Transmission entered Castaway 7 Studios and recorded their debut E.P., "Head Over Heels" which was released on SoCal indie label Missing Words Records. Shortly after the release, End Transmission acquired a new bassist, Shawn Toyooka who helps to fill the affirmative action requirements for the band.
After over a year of shows and writing a slew of new, more mature songs, End Transmission began recording their full-length masterpiece, "Devour" with Jose Galvez of Ozma. "Devour" will be released on August 16, 2009, again on Missing Words Records, and will be hitting the road soon after for a two-month national tour. Be sure to catch them when they're in your area... and maybe offer them a place to sleep?
End Transmission now strives to not only completely take over the planet Earth, but eventually destroy it... but not in a bad way... like in a good way though... maybe with Legos... or robots... but the robots are good robots (not those evil Skynet kind)... and they make them fight and stuff... they’re still working out the specifics.
Send them a message if you want to get together on a show, or you like the tunes, or you hate the tunes, or you went to school with Zeke in NC, or Jordan was an asshole to you at Isbell, or you want a ride on Hunters wheelchair, or you want to encourage Shawn to shower every now and then or you have no idea who any of these people are. They accept all of those. Thanks.
