Hoods Biography
A Sacramento, CA, hardcore institution since 1995, Hoods was founded by guitarist Mike Hood, and has since released several albums for a number of independent labels, including 1999's Alone EP (for Breakout), 2001's Time...the Destroyer, 2003's Pray for Death (both for Victory Records), and 2005's The King Is Dead (for Eulogy Recordings). Through it all, numerous musicians have flitted through Hoods' ranks, but, at press time, the band was rounded out by vocalist Ben Garcia, bassist Nate Vicious, and drummer Whiteboy Ben. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia, All Music Guide
