About:

Church has been a band for over 10 years now going from Bay Area punk to proto-Emo to lo-fi experimental to cult status in 2000+. Our music is hard to put in a nutshell as it changes from year to year. We've got upbeat punk songs, fast hardcore songs, improvised experimental music, 4-track garage, lo-fi acoustic, country, noise... there's been a lot of stuff and it's been documented in six official full length releases (a seventh just finished) and a myriad of extra-curricular releases.
