It is a punk rock band. Punk culture ideologies are concerned with individual freedom and anti-establishment views. Viewpoints held by my son and his friends include non-conformity and not putting yourself above anyone else, as well as anti-militarism, anti-capitalism, anti-racism, anti-sexism, anti-homophobia, environmentalism, veganism and animal rights.

The band has a very edgy name that ties into that theme. It is a play-on-words of the word:

Sophisticate: a person with the outlook, experience, and manners thought to be typical of big city dwellers <sophisticates laughing at people they thought of as hicks>






I'm so proud. (Obviously this is hard to brag about..hahah )

I like the art. GOD, I remember and miss my rebellious youth!
