Aggro or Die!

Aggro or Die! began in the late summer of 2005. With Jae Voltage on guitar, Aggro Eddie on drums, Eric Crouse on bass and Matt Bruce on vocals and guitar. Aggro began playing shows that same year. The band had many line up changes during its first few years as a band. The band independently released "Coming out alive" a 7 inch in the fall of 2007. And focused on touring around the Midwest and East Coast.
In 2011 Aggro or Die! decided to hit the grind stone and finished what
they set out to do from the very beginning. With album in hand Aggro teamed up with Overdose on Records to release they're debut full length album entitled "Summer Dies". Aggro or Die! has been hailed as the ultimate band to have blasting your ear drums while coming up to a perfect front side grind.
