A familiar sound in unfamiliar territory. Common beliefs expressed with extraordinary passion. Time Again isn't holding onto shreds of hope. They're tearing down barriers and tackling the issues. They portray the world as they see it. Using the angst driven, attention grabbing sound of punk as their canvas. They paint their songs with lyrical urgency and stunningly graphic storytelling. Time Again was formed in the summer of 2004, by Los Angeles locals Daniel Dart (vocals), and Elijah Reyes (guitar). Despite the fact that they didn't have a full band, or a single song written, the two spent long hours promoting the band. They plastered up thousands of stickers, and handed out countless flyers. With a growing list of shows being booked, Time Again wasn't fully realized until just days before their first show. Now armed with Oren Soffer (bass) and Ryan Purucker (drums), the band began playing numerous shows in and around LA, performing and perfecting the songs that would make up their self titled EP, released on Rancid Records in June of '05. That album would receive heavy rotation on several radio stations, including a spot on Fungus 53 XM's Top 25 ALBUMS of '05 and the EP's closing song "I Go Back", earning a spot on the station's Top Ten SONGS of '05. Nearly all of 2006 and 2007 were spent touring in support of their debut full length "The Stories Are True" released in April of '06 on the Epitaph subsidiary Hellcat Records. The album received outstanding critical acclaim, as well as beating out NOFX and The Casualties to win (XM Radio's) “Punk Song of The Year" award for the song "Cold Concrete."
