Armed with enough adrenaline to rival any current touring act, The Prep School Tragedy have quickly broke out as one of Chicago’s premier Industrial/Alternative collectives. Led by two front men, Benn “TranQ” Guy and Michael “Ignited” Hodes, the band has become notorious for its controversial live performances that include scantily clad cheerleaders, known only as The Squad. Rebelling against main
stream commodities, the band has mastered the art of independent music with self released music and merchandise, and they continue to be the backbone of their own promotional campaign. This consistent work ethic, coupled with their love for theatrics, has earned The Prep School Tragedy a loyal cult following of fans known properly as “The DelinQuents”. Their delivery of filthy and grungy synths combined with erratic drum patterns is only a taste of the big picture. Walking a thin line between exploitation and good old fashioned fun, The Prep School Tragedy has managed to carve out their own unique sound in today’s otherwise vanilla landscape.The Prep School Tragedy has made its way across the country, and shared the stage with such notable acts as Blood On The Dance Floor, The Birthday Massacre, Celldweller, , Mushroomhead, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, Twiztid and Ventana. Their debut release, It’s All A Show, is available now and quickly selling out of its first pressing.
