Guttermouth

Guttermouth are studio hounds; they returned to the punk rock scene in fall 2002 when the ambitious Gusto was released, and came back for more in 2004 with the scathing Eat Your Face (with guitarist Don Horne and ex-Slick Shoes bassist Kevin Clark now on board). That same summer saw the departure of drummer Smith to concentrate on his side project Bullets and Octane; the outspoken band also reportedly got kicked off the Warped Tour in August. Adkins later clarified they left the tour by choice, sickened by the ignorant political comments spouted during various bands sets. After departing Epitaph Records, the group was officially added to the Volcom Entertainment roster in late 2005. Busy since then, Guttermouth contributed the track April 29th, 1992 to the Sublime tribute album Forever Free, and released their installment of the Beyond Warped Live Music Series in January 2006. The bands tenth album, Shave the Planet, appeared that August, with Adkins, Sheldon, and Horne joined by original bassist Weinrich and drummer Ryan Farrell.
