The Cryptics blend of melody & classic punk rock influence has allowed them to create their own channel of individuality. Since 2008, this New Hampshire based trio has been making their mark.

Records & Overdose On Records, and marks the group’s first release in nearly 3 years! It is presented as a pre-cursor to a long-awaited full-length LP that is currently in the works. In spring ‘12, the bandl embarked on a 5-week, 36-show national tour in support of this EP. This 3-piece is more active than ever & will continue to strike pavement all over with no exception. The new EP reflects the bands musical growth & remains a seed planted for what’s ahead. Come aboard & stay tuned!

Just a Mess is a three-piece band hailing from the windy city of Chicago. Formed in 2019, this band is a force to be reckoned with, as they combine the intense, emotionally charged sound of Deftones with the introspective lyricism of Brand New. The band's founding members, Tony Sarlo and Kyle Blais, first met in a drunk tank after a night out on the town. They quickly realized their mutual love for music and decided to form a band. After the departure of their original drummer, Cory Gray, Kevin Kovacevich joined the band on drums and quickly established himself as an essential part of Just a Mess. Despite their name, Just a Mess is anything but chaotic when it comes to their music. Their sound is a precise and calculated blend of heavy, guitar-driven riffs and poignant, introspective lyrics. Their lyrics explore themes of loss, heartbreak, and nostalgia for a time that has passed. While Just a Mess may be picky about who they interview with, they are more than willing to connect with their fans through their music. Tony Sarlo's haunting vocals and intricate guitar work blend seamlessly with Kyle Blais's pulsing basslines and Kevin Kovacevich's thunderous drumming. Just a Mess's music is not for the faint of heart. It is an emotional journey that is sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who listens. But for those who are brave enough to take the ride, they will find a band that is authentic, passionate, and unapologetically real.
