Chi-town's hometown hero, ALLISTER is known for their demonstrable commitment to the DIY ethics of punk by fellow musicians and fans alike. The band’s latest album, Before The Blackout incorporates sing-along melodies, break neck chord changes, and witty and sentimental lyrics, all elements that have cemented ALLISTER as a stand out act in the punk rock scene. Though tied to their musical roots, the ten-year old band isn’t scared to grow up. Before The Blackout is praised in the press for taking that next step in song-writing and musicianship. Veteran road warriors, this band delivers a high-energy, on-spot set that no fan of punk rock would want to miss.
