Garden Variety play driving rock over emo-core vocals. Anthony Roman (vocals, bass), Anthony Rizzo (guitar) and Joe Gorelick (drums, vocals) formed the band in their home, Long Island, NY. After a couple of singles (on Lookout!, Reservoir and Headhunter) and a self-titled album, the band released their major indie-label debut, Knocking the Skill Level, on Headhunter/Cargo. ~ John Bush
