"You Bring Me Down" featured in a Wahoo's Fish Tacos National TV Campaign!

Our friends at Wahoo's Fish Tacos asked if they could use our song "You Bring Me Down" for a TV commercial campaign that will be running nationally. We love their food, they love our music! It's a match made in heaven! Naturally, we said YES!

Thanks to John Hampton for hooking it up!

Thank you Curtis!

Jonny Manak and The Depressives have decided to go back to a stripped down, guitar heavy, "power trio" lineup and would like to thank Curtis for his hard work behind the organ. He's a good friend, a great musician and we appreciate the time he spent with us.  He'll still be burning down the house with his band MONKEY, so go check them out at a show near you!
Thanks for all your help Curtis!

More MTV placements! Our music is on Episode #4 of RIDICULOUSNESS!

SWEET! More music placed on MTV shows that we like to watch! Rob is funny as hell and rips on a skateboard, so we're stoked to announce that our song EVERY NIGHT'S A FRIDAY from our first album REBOUND TOWN was in this episode. Fast forward to the 6:33 spot and you'll hear almost the entire song! Wah-BAM! Thanks guys!

"Cha Cha Cha Chewy" was used in a Vans Shoes/Spitfire Commercial!

Stoked! We love Vans Shoes and we love Spitfire Wheels. But what we love more than anything, is people we believe in using our music in their stuff. The gravy train keeps on rollin'!

Peanut Butter Wolf Interview from 1989

Ever have one of those embarrassing videos from grade school hit youtube? Well, this is one of them, but to add insult to injury, I have makeup on. We were getting ready to head to KSJS for my first radio interview for our band PEANUT BUTTER WOLF. I was in 5th grade...

Awe, memories...

This photo was taken in 2006? 2007? I don't know. All I do know is that this was on the Sacrifice Skateboards tour when were were filming "Por Vida" the 2nd video the company made. MRZ was there shooting pics and catching a ton of fish! Dave Nelson and I left SJ in the afternoon and had to drive through Yosemite park (falling asleep at the wheel too) to get to this skatepark in Mamoth and rolled into the campsite at like 3am where I obnoxiously woke everyone up with loud music and my car horn (they were pissed, but got over it after a few minutes and all was well). We set up our tents  had a few victory drinks after the drive and hit the hay. Boy, that was a fun trip. I almost died trying this so I slapped on a helmet for good measure. You can also see the video of this shot at the very end of this clip.
