History
Clutch?
In 2007 while apart of Hell's Army The Franchise did an amazing performance against MGO's very best ringer's. Pure Evil was the clan. Franchise's clutch performance was nothing short of amazing and record breaking. His actions in the match were unappreciated and not recognized. This moment will go down in MGO record books as the most clutch performance ever.
Prior Groups
Hell's Army was his Primary group Co-Leading them to #2 on GameBattles.com Ladder.
He has also been associated with: =NoS=,(OW), -=CS=-, and many more.
Demolition
Shortly after forming, they recorded Demolition at Hit & Run Studios in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Demolition had three original songs, Aliyah L'Regel, Post-Apocalyptic Love Song, and Cyrano, and a cover of the The_Police song Message in a Bottle.
Cover art for Demolition was created by Patrick.
Shortly after releasing Demolition, Noah Kaye joined the band after attending one of the early performances.
The Sound and the Furry
In early 2005, they recorded most of the tracks for The Sound and the Furry, live at Avalon Recording studios in Bethesda, Maryland. Two of the songs, Lojack and King of Falafel, were recorded at the Brass Monkey Saloon in Baltimore, Maryland, and Late Summer' was recorded at Umbrella Studios in Arlington, Virginia.
The cover art was an homage to the Beatles album Let it Be, featuring the band's pets.
Almost immediately after Figmental Records released The Sound and the Furry, Jerry left the band, and Noah took on primary vocal duties.
To the Rescue!
In 2006, they decided to record another album with a more 'produced' sound, and returned to Hit & Run Studios to do so. DC comic artist Jake Warrenfelz was commissioned to design the cover, which envisioned the band defending the US Capitol from attack by a giant squid.
Before the recording was finished, Anna left the band, and the other members took turns filling in for her on the CD. Jackson Maier replaced her shortly before the CD was released, but after the recording was finished.
