***"Late in the summer of 2007, members of two melodic punk groups hailing from Michigan dropped anchor in San Francisco merging as a new project called BUILD THEM TO BREAK. Now firmly settled, they distill their individual styles crafting a new sound of their own largely influenced by bands such as The Swellers and Heartsounds. Oakland's own WEEKENDER was conceived in 2009 completing their line up the following year. Combining expressions of SoCal ‘90s punk, metal and hardcore, the trio draws from a wide variety of personal influences including Hot Water Music and The Lawrence Arms. On March 26, 2012 both bands had the privilege of performing with late punk legend Tony Sly at Brick & Mortar in San Francisco. The idea of doing a 7" split record originated after that show during a shared ride in the haziness of Weekender's touring van. In April, 2013, both bands celebrated their first ever 7" split debut while performing two release shows together in both Oakland and SF."
