     [ "Attack Attack!" ]

    1: Sex to thee ears. Otherwise known as, Crabcore. The killer sound of Caleb Shomo's screams/keyboarding mixed with Andew Wetzel's drumming, Andrew Whiting's guitar, John Holgado's baddass bass & of course Johnny Franck's amazing vocals. These guys were founded in Westerville, Ohio around 200 They had about 3 or so member changes throughout; including Austin Carlile(was in Of Mice & Men), Nick Barham & Nick White. As of now, 2010. Attack Attack! has just released their NEW self-titled album. Everyone must listen to at least one of their songs. They get allot of rude comments. People need to get how young most of them are, around the ages of barely 17 to 2 They work hard & aren't like allot of band jerks out there. They take time to actually talk to their fans & are extremely nice about it.

      * e.g.,  ... "Dude, have you heard Attack Attack!'s new album?!" "Nah, I don't do Crabcore." "NOOO man, it's heeelllllaa dannk!" *listens to Sexual Man Chocolate- Attack Attack!* "FUCKYES MAN! this is amazing." "What did I tell you dude?! Instant eargasm." *both mosh happily to Attack Attack!* :D 

     [ "Attack Attack!" ]

    1: Attack Attack! An electronic queercore band originating from Columbus Ohio. Comprised of Nick Barnham (the fat coke addict), Johnny Franck (the meth dealer), Andrew Whiting (the guy who gave AIDS to everyone), John Holgado (the critical Asian), Caleb Shomo (the giant douche), and Andrew Wetzel (the guy no one cares about). They were actually a pretty good band until they turned into giant cock suckers andsold out all the true fans. Known for stealing other bands equipment early in their career, and being banned from several events and venues in the process, Attack Attack wouldn't be where they were today if not for their loyal fans in Columbus Ohio (whom they have blown off to live in their moment of spotlight).

      * e.g.,  ... "Hey are you going to see Attack Attack! tonight? Because their SUPER AMAZING AWESOME zsdfhsrftuhdrgn!!!!!!!!!!!" "Go suck a fuck and play in the street." 


     [ "Attack Attack!" ]

    2: Former band member, Austin Carlile (a decent human being) was kicked out of the band because the other members didn't know how to act like true Christians, and forgive someone for their mistakes. Generally, Attack Attack is a poser scene band that creates millions of 13 year old fat scene girls wearing pants that show off all their fat, and pigsluts. They have betrayed themselves as "Christians" and, most importantly, betrayed their fans. Anyone that actually likes Attack Attack doesn't know ANYTHING about them, and lives in Texas, California, or some other state FAR FAR away from Ohio.
