Small Arms Dealer

The Long Island-based punk rock outfit Small Arms Dealer -- containing members from other area bands such as Contra, Fellow Project, On the Might of Princes and the Devil Himself -- came about in the spring of 2004. Group members Jason Lubrano (vocals), Andrew Karaptis (guitar), Lou Fontana (guitar), Adam Kuhn (drums), and Stephen Andolfo (bass) recorded a five-song demo, the Hot Knives EP, with the help of Latterman's Phil Douglas in August 2004. Small Arms Dealer signed with Deep Elm in November of the following year, and their full-length, A Single Unifying Theory, was issued in February 2006. ~ Corey Apar
