[edit] History

The group formed in 1999 while its members were still in high school, and began touring locally before signing with Capitol Records in 2003.[1] Their debut album, which featured a cover of Mott the Hoople's "All the Young Dudes", was released in July of the next year to mixed reviews.[2][3][4][5][6] The group followed the album's release with appearances on the Warped Tour (being known on that tour as "The Fuck-Ups") .[1] In late 2006, the group broke up, and Allen, DeWerd and Collett re-formed as Hang 'Em High with two new players.
