Hailing from Chicago, The Bomb is a punk trio featuring former Naked Raygun leader Jeff Pezzatti (vocals, bass). Rounding out the group is John Maxwell (guitar), and Paul Garcia (drums). The group came together in the late 1990s and formed Jettison Music, an imprint that has also released recordings by The Matics and Green. The Bomb made their recorded debut with a 3-song EP in 1999 and released a full-length in 2000 entitled Torch Songs, which was recorded by friend (and former Big Black bandmate), Steve Albini. Since their formation, The Bomb has played shows regularly in Chicago and Minneapolis, often touring with fellow veterans The Damned and Grant Hart, along with newcomers such as The Pinehurst Kids and The Amazing Crowns. More recently, they have released such critically acclaimed albums as 2005's Indecision (on Thick Records) and 2009's Speed is Everything, which they released on No Idea Records.
