Th e Misfires are a high-energy skate-punk band from Edmonton, Alberta, known for their dynamic stage shows that actively involved the audience. The band quickly gained a following and performed numerous high-profile shows, including opening acts for Face to Face and Authority Zero. Their debut album, "Songs about Stuff," is highly regarded in the punk community.

Despite their success, the band disbanded in 2016 due to internal strife. However, before their breakup, they had completed tracking on a full-length album, which is scheduled for release on May 24th, 2024. The album serves as a final testament to their legacy.

The band consisted of notable Edmonton metal scene veterans: Barrett Klesko All Else Fails, Degenerator, The Secret Places of the Earth, ex. The Order of Chaos (vocals), Seedy Mitchell Sleepwraith, ex. All Else Fails (guitar), Justin Cruse, King Theory, ex Naked Beauty (bass), Ryan Biggs Sleepwraith, ex. All Else Fails(drums), and Colton Taylor Violet Riot (guitar).

The Misfires' music was characterized by a potent blend of scathing social and political commentary, sardonic self-analysis, and an explosive musical sound that paid homage to 90's skatepunk while injecting a fresh perspective into the Canadian punk scene. Their songs resonated with a generation disillusioned with the status quo, making them a band to remember in the punk rock landscape.
