Anthony Bueno has been the lead singer of the band since it was formed. He's a very talented lead singer who writes all his own songs most of which are based on his own personal experiences. But Anthony is not all great music and popularity. He is known for beating random people into a bloody pulp. But on a lighter note he enjoys partying, girls, ethnic foods, leather jackets, anything by Motorhead, plates of tomatoes, girls, beating up Daniel, picking fights, comics, toys, movies, and sleeping. In his spare time when he's not busy working at some cheap job, practicing, beating up Daniel, or working on his songs he likes to shop, walk around downtown, eat, sleep, beat up Daniel, make fun of Jan, hang out with that kid with the orange mohawk, play a really awesome show, and try to pick up chicks. He currently resides in his mansion in Winnipeg.

Daniel Pangman is known for his eccentric bass playing talents. Whether he's super drunk or extremely hung over he can play a great set with all his hopping around, singing, bumping into things and skillful bass playing. He started out playing guitar and somehow ended up playing bass but he says he enjoys it to no end. "It's a great way to pick up chicks!" He has been quoted as saying. Both him and Bueno went to the same high school, Tec Voc, which was where they met. Daniel spends most of his time online chatting, downloading music, and just computing. He also is a self proclaimed great cook and can make a mean nacho platter. His favorite food is either plain cereal or nachos. Besides his vast musical talents he is also known for his totally vintage wardrobe and living in Anthony's house. An interesting fact about Daniel is that he was once arrested at Eric Roberts house for playing his music too loud, and plus he had a couple of warrants out for his arrest. He spends a lot of his spare time with his four kids.
