Overthrow - Canada

Overthrow was a five-piece skatepunk band from the area of Portneuf, Quebec, Canada.

Biography[]

They started in 1998. During their short time of existence, they had the chance to play with BigWig, Douglas and many other amazing skatepunk acts. They also recorded a song for one of the best punk compilation to have been released in Quebec : This Scene Has Been Built Together on Hard Fist Records. Overthrow were strongly influenced by the Swedish bands like Pridebowl, Adhesive, etc. I dont know exactly when the band disbanded but I think its somewhere around 2000. In 2006, the 2 brothers Sebastien Côté (bass) and Benoît Côté (drums) joined the band Crane where they played for a while. Overthrow unfortunately never released anything else than one compilation songs. (but WHAT a song!!) They also recorded 6 songs live in a studio but they were never released.
