THE BLAME is a high energy, street punk, rock n roll band, born and raised in the streets of New York. We've been around for over 15 years, and have been part of the punk scene since it started. In the early 80's Phil and Paul were in a hardcore band called RAPID DEPLOYMENT FORCE. Phil later formed NEW ROSE, which went on to become THE BLAME. THE BLAME have toured Europe several times and continue to do so. They have several CD's released as well as various compilations, and have been featured on an independent movie sound track called "ALL GROWN UP - THE MOVIE". We are a DIY band and support like minded bands and causes. We are not entertainers, we are four pissed off individuals venting our frustrations through our music.
