In the begining there were three homely kids that went by the aliases of Tonto, Kungfu,and Porky. They were originaly the Deviates. They played two shows and had rave reviews. Then the drummer left and went back to north Syracuse. The search for a new drummer began. Jason called Pete. Pete agreed.

After Pete joined the band we then decided to change our name to ILL NATURE. ILL NATURE plays a mix of sounds, from old skool street punk, to ska. We have one cd "Trouble in Paradise" that's out right now, and we are in the process of making our next record which will be self titled (ILL NATURE).

Many people ask us what ILL NATURE is "all about". Well to tell you the truth, we're three guys that like to have fun and play music. I think besides that we all have strong views on certain topics such as politics and this so called civilization we live in. These views are very apparent in some of our lrics. I think a common belief of the members in ILL NATURE is that, through peace and unity we all can help make this world a better place. There is so much intolarence and hate in this world today, and much of it is because people are afraid of what they don't understand. It's just the lazy side of human nature (ILL NATURE) that says that it's easier to intimidate and hate than love and relate.

So we decided to make a stand against all the hate and ignorance in this world. That's why ILL NATURE was formed, our beliefs will never change or be conformed. We are proud of what we are and have already acomplished. We are just average guy's who have decided to make our voices be heard rather than be spoken for. The only thing we are trying to prove is that,it is possible for anyone with determination and a brain, to make this world a better place. Oh yeah and play as loud and hard as possible everyday. So if you have read this far we thank you for your time, and get off the mind numbing computer now and go have fun doing something progressive. You're friends ILL NATURE.
