Epitaph

Pennywise is an American punk rock band from Hermosa Beach, California. Formed in 1988 by Jim Lindberg, Fletcher Dragge, Jason Thirsk, and Byron McMackin, the group quickly gained recognition with their eponymous debut album released through Epitaph Records in 1991. With a sound that went against the grain of the grunge movement at the time, Pennywise played a pivotal role in shaping the emerging West Coast punk scene. The band's name was inspired by Stephen King's horror novel IT and its evil clown monster.

Throughout their career, Pennywise has experienced changes in their lineup. In 1996, during a hiatus from the group, bassist Jason Thirsk tragically passed away. Randy Bradbury joined as his replacement and has been with the band since then. Vocalist Jim Lindberg also took a break from Pennywise but returned to lead vocals in 2012 after Zoli Teglas filled in for him between 2010 and 2012.

The current members of Pennywise include Fletcher Dragge on guitar (since 1988), Randy Bradbury on bass (since 1995), Byron McMackin on drums (since 1988), and Jim Lindberg on vocals (from 1988-2009 and since 2012). Former members include Jason Thirsk on bass (1988-1995), Dave Quackenbush briefly

On Unknown Road, Pennywise steps up their songwriting, maintains all their fury and intensity, and lays out their philosophy of independence and the importance of daring to live every moment to its fullest. This album features a number of songs that played on tons of skate, surf and snowboarding videos, making this, and other PW records to come, the soundtrack to the exploding extreme sports board scene. Featuring such Pennywise classics as "Homesick," "Unknown Road," "It's Up To Me," and "You Can Demand," Unknown Road is arguably the quintessential So Cal hardcore record of the '90s.   Reissued to celebrate the 30th Anniversary.
