After-11 is yet another PGR sponsored band who we believe is the next Bloodhound Gang, with their crude lyrics and catchy beats off their latest cd Donuts are Rad.How did you get the name After-11?
If we told you, you would have to grant us the rights to your first born child.
What inspired you to make music together?
(Joel Says) Cody’s mom.
You guys proudly embrace being a pop punk hip hop band. Do you think that genre doesn't get enough respect?
Well, not really. We have not really ever heard another band with that genre.
You guys mention that you are "just three kids who love acting our shoe size, not our age.” How this does comes through in your music?
We sing about dumb shit.
Your album, "Donuts Are Rad" is a great cd to throw on during parties or when you want a good laugh. Could you ever see the band changing directions and writing more 'serious' songs?
See song 13 on Donuts Are Rad. We do serious songs when we need to, but an album of serious songs, we cannot see that.
Your cd went up on iTunes in November, how was the recording process for that, and how has that been received by your fans so far?
Fun, but stressful. And our fans love to run naked to it.
What is your favorite song off that cd?
That’s like asking a parent to pick their favorite child.
You guys incorporate a variety of sounds in your music. What is the writing process like?
Well, really it all depends. Sometimes we have a great melody and write words off of it. Or sometimes, while sitting in health class Cody will come up with some lyrics.
So, your new demo “Peter Time” is now up on your page. How would you say this reflects how your music has developed since you first started out?
We are much more musical, have a smarter sense of wit about us, and we are more sexually retarted.
What are some bands that you guys have most enjoyed playing with?
Scarred For Life, Schmegma, and China Man Rage (A.K.A-Beard Eats Face)
For those who haven't seen your live performance, can you describe your live show? What they should expect? What gets the best reaction from the crowd?
Be on the lookout for energy, musicality, Joel crying, and Cody’s penis. (that’s why joel is crying)
What is your favorite part of being on stage?
The boner from crowd participation. Without the crowd, we would be ass holes on stage, not a band.
What is it that fuels your passion for what you do?
Our dive to the Grammy’s. (Laughs) We just love making music together and we can’t see ourselves doing anything else
What has been the biggest moment for the band? What has been the biggest challenge?
