Plague Vendor
Plague Vendor is an American post-punk band formed in 2008 in Whittier, California. [1]
The band's musical style incorporates elements of punk rock, post-punk, and post-hardcore.[2]
History
Plague Vendor was formed in 2008, originating from a shared passion for punk rock among its members. Growing up in Whittier, a conservative exurb, they were inspired by the punk scenes of Los Angeles and other areas.[3]
In 2014, Plague Vendor signed with Epitaph Records and released their debut album, Free to Eat.[4] The album received critical acclaim for its blend of classic punk rock and modern sensibilities, earning them recognition as one of AP's "100 Bands You Need to Know" in 2014.[5]
Their sophomore album, Bloodsweat, produced by Stuart Sikes, was released in 2016, further developing their signature sound.[6] In 2019, they released their third album, By Night, produced by John Congleton, which incorporated elements of synth and electronic drums while maintaining their punk roots.[7]
Plague Vendor's music combines aggressive guitar riffs, driving rhythms, and anthemic choruses, creating a unique blend of punk and post-punk with modern elements. They describe their sound as "Graveyard Groove," which is dark yet danceable.[8]
