The five members of California punk/metal band Strung Out must have had cool parents. Their biographies list their first concerts—all circa late ’80s—that include Kiss, Depeche Mode, Bad Religion and Metallica. That’s certainly an excellent foundation for heavy music appreciation. The Simi Valley, Calif.-based outfit, led by vocalist Jason Cruz, started out in 1989, and in the past two decades they’ve released seven albums on Fat Wreck Chords and taken to the road in the United States, with stints on the Warped Tour, and internationally. I wonder how many future punks will cite Strung Out as their first concert experience.
