Hailing from Queens, NY, KIDS OF SURVIVAL started playing music together what seems like ages ago. (On the 7th day, when God rested, KIDS OF SURVIVAL was hard at work learning which chord progressions would best make Adam and Eve dance.) Under the pretense of making worthwhile rock music, the guys were more into having a good time and trying to kiss girls than writing great songs but eventually began to take their music very seriously in the summer of 2003.

For two years they played after school and toured on the weekends until finally recording a full lengh CD with producer Tomas Costanza in the summer of 2005. At a time when so many bands rely on the formula of "If you scream it, they will come," or the emo cry of "Slice my wrists and hope to die," KIDS OF SURVIVAL had made an unapologetically technologically brain-crackling catchy record. Call it Indie; call it Powerpop; call it crap; call it what you will; they called it "Good Till Your Heart Pops". It was released November 29th, 2005 while on tour with Halifax, and sold over 4000 copies in seven months. Not too shabby for a band who's van tried to kill them by throwing a tire in an Arizona desert in the summer of 2006.

Utterly free of anyone's expectations, high or otherwise, they recently booked another national tour (complete with an old Atari 2600 in their van) selling out clubs in NYC, Philly and Long Island. They have opened for such national acts such as: Sugarcult, Story of the Year, Bayside, From First to Last, Halifax, Punchline, Spitalfield, Valencia, Bed light for Blue Eyes, HelloGoodBye, I Am The Avalanche, Four Year Strong, Houston Calls, Brazil, Emery and many more.

Unafraid to wear their heart on their collective sleeve, KIDS OF SURVIVAL are releasing their sophomore CD on January 8th 2008. Over saturation has blighted the robust market that's now only a memory. Savvy insurgents buffet K.O.S. with science as technological innovation renders those once vigorous sensations shopworn. Blessing the house with some of that old time religion, NYC's KIDS OF SURVIVAL are proselytizing and profilin' in '08 with the release of their latest effort. Ferociously rocking with a high-wire fragility, the music stuns and satisfies like nothing else (except maybe an ice cold Pabst Blue Ribbon!).
