Kids Like Us

Kids Like Us is an American hardcore punk band from north Florida that formed in 2003. Their music was characterized as skate-punk, with lyrics about skateboarding, eating burritos, straightedge lifestyle, and drinking Coca-Cola. They released three full-length albums, two split albums, and toured with bands that included Down To Nothing, Casey Jones, and the Mongoloids.[1]

History

Kids Like Us was formed by Lars Lundquist and Brandon Hurst after the break up of xOne Fifthx.[2] They were soon joined by guitarist Clint Penick and released a 5-song demo.[3] Later that year, Kids Like Us signed to Knife or Death Records and released a self-titled full length. In 2004, Kids Like Us signed to Eulogy Recordings and released their second full length, Outta Control.[1] After several member changes, the band released their final full length, The Game, [4] and a split with label-mates the Mongoloids.
