#59: Time Again

I'm a punk rocker til' the day I die

Number 59 are Time Again, and even though their guest singer sings the lyric above, I like it a lot so deal with it.

Wiki Says:
Time Again is a street punk band from st. petersburg florida. The band was formed in the summer of 2004 by Daniel Dart and Elijah Reyes. Before they even had a full band or a single song written, they began printing stickers and flyers for Time Again to heavily promote their band, resulting in numerous shows being booked. Time Again only came together as a full band a few days before their first show. The band says all their musical influences are Rancid, The Clash, and Op Ivy. In June 2005, Time Again released a self-titled EP on Rancid Records. This EP would result in heavy radio play on several Los Angeles radio stations, including Fungus 53 XM, which would name the EP as one of the top 25 albums of 2005, and the song "I Go Back" as one of the top 10 songs of 2005. It included a cover of Rancid's song "Tattoo". The band released their debut full-length, The Stories are True, on April 25, 2006, on Hellcat Records.

in june 2005 Wyly Weeks was ask to leave the band because of drinking problems

In August 2006 Brian Burnham left the band (He Is Currently In Mad Marge and the Stonecutters) and was replaced with Oren Soffer .

Tim Armstrong appeared on the band single "Stories Are True" on their first full length album Stories Are True.

The band released their new album Darker Days in early 2008.

Before their 2008 fall tour, Ryan Purucker left the band to return to his home state of Alaska, and was replaced with Jake Belush. In 2009 guitarist Elijah Reyes left the band for a two year long Mormon trip. It is unknown if Elijah will return to the band in 2011.The band originally considered taking two years off to wait for him but ultimately decided to replace him with a long time friend guitarist Kris Idol.

Time Again I saw live as an opening act for Against All Authority in 2006 and I was so impressed by them I bought their album. I was pretty disappointed by "Darker Days" and have more or less given up on them but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy what I already have. If not for Left Alone, they'd be the next coming of Rancid...probably why Tim Armstrong sings with both bands at times.
