Episode Description

Over It were a pop-punk outfit that emerged in 1998 from Alexandria, Virginia and later planted roots in Orange County, California. With high-energy hooks and relentless touring through the early 2000s, they carved out a place for themselves on the independent scene with albums like The Ready Series, Timing Is Everything, Silverstrand, and their major-label release Step Outside Yourself. Along the way they hit the Vans Warped Tour and toured with some of the era's biggest punk and rock acts, making a lasting mark on a generation of pop-punk fans.

Some of those bands included Motion City Soundtrack, Rufio, The Matches, Tsunami Bomb, Acceptance, Gatsbys American Dream, Near Miss, Park, Tokyo Rose, Halifax, and a ton of others.

They've come up on the podcast multiple times especially in the Negative Progression Records Episode #121 and Lobster Records Ep # 84 plus a bunch of ohter band interviews. So I got Pete on the Zoom and this is what we chat about:
