Asteroid M came to record at The Banana Stand after Jonah Rose (the singer of the group) and I met while working at Dark Horse Comics. We both left the place under some questionable circumstances, but goddamn if we aren't still both comic book fans. Asteroid M, if you didn't already know, is the secret base of X-Men villain (except when he's their leader) known as Magneto. The band opened for Tiger House, which, that night, featured Alex Arrowsmith on bass.

Asteroid M is a thrash-pop group that is high in energy and youth appeal, literally. The guys brought out one of the biggest crowds we've ever had, and then they rocked super-fucking-hard. "Molotov Rocktail" is the featured track because it's awesome and it's named after something everyone everywhere wishes they could throw at least once. Admit it.
