Two decades after the Sex Pistols and the Ramones shocked the music work with their turbo-charged punk rock, Blanks 77, have shown that the musical genre is not solely an artifact from the past. With the screaming vocals of Mike Blank and the barbed-wire sounds of Renee Wasted's electric guitar soaring over the slamming rhythms of bassist Timm "T. J." Blank and drummer Chad 10 Seconds, the Quincy, Massachusetts-based band create a supersonic, anything goes, punk-inspired, sound of their own. According to "The CMJ-NMR Review", Blanks 77 "specialize in the pure punk style of '77 but with no socio-political agenda". Blanks 77 was conceived by vocalist Mike Blank and drummer Chad 10 Seconds during jam sessions at Quincy rock club, The Pipeline.

Just another casualty, layin' on the line
killin' one another until the end of time
hear their screams, feel their pain look into their eyes
they say that war's a bitch its just a pack of lies.
[Chorus:]
search and destroy [4x] politicians choice corporations
they fuck the fuckin' country
to uphold their fucking name
future is unwritten but
the lies remain the truth
we praise all of the heroes
then we take their abuse.
[Chorus]
I wanna live to see tomorrow
with my own eyes
cuz i'll be there when your day
comes propaganda lies
and when your marching
shooting your guns i'll know the truth
peace ain't something that you die for
in the glory of youth
