Stereotypical Working Class

Despite most of the band members not even being born in France, they have made quite a name for themselves on that side of the pond. Founded in California in 1999, the four original members weren't have the greatest luck in their home country so they decided, for whatever reason, to settle in Lyon, France. Once in France, there were a few line up changes but by 2002 the reformed band made their first ever studio album called Illusion. It was released in 2003 and contained songs in both French and English. This ultimately lead to several tours around Europe and a handful more of bilingual albums. The band's most recent release, Day After Day, came out just last November and is marked as SWC's first record to not contain any songs sung in French. However, I must say this isn't too bad for a couple of punks from California.
