Dangerous!
Dangerous! are a two piece punk act from Australia comprising Nicky Jones and Jarrad Lee.[1] The band's early work was predominantly garage indie punk rock. Their debut LP, Teenage Rampage included an additional bassist and vocalist. It was released in 2011 on Epitaph Records and earned them the title of the "Hottest New Band of the Year".[2] Dangerous! is the only Australian act to sign to Epitaph for worldwide distribution.[3][4][5]
The band followed this release with a string of festival appearances throughout Europe and the US, including the Sonisphere Festival,[6] Download,[7] Big Day Out, Push Over,[8] and Pyramid Rock.[9]
Founding member Jones was dissatisfied with the production of Teenage Rampage, and withdrew creative input from the band,[10] which put the band's activities on hold.[10] The band re-emerged in 2013 as the founding duo of Jones and Lee, with a new electronic punk and skater punk image associated with the band today. They composed material for a new EP titled RIP in Los Angeles, California [1] October 2013.[11]
Brett Gurewitz (Epitaph Records CEO/Bad Religion) noted (he is) 'Proud of this signing. Dangerous! All new, off-the-chain, brash Rock n' Roll'.[12]
