The Second Line are a band with a sound and purpose that sets them a million miles away from todays indie scene. These boys play a unique brand of alternative rock that is steeped in both poetry and sentiment. By engaging the imagery of the human condition, with the rock 'n' roll traditions of the 1970s they invoke a romance of suggestion and an industry of mind that is perhaps accounted for by their love of post-punk legends Fugazi and early Manic Street Preachers.
When asked what 'The Second Line' stand-for, the band made claim their reactionary stance is modeled to promote any emotion save indifference.
