Orange County, California (1998 – 2004, 2009 – present)

Something Corporate is a rock band hailing from Orange County, California. While they categorize their own music as piano rock, the industry has filed them somewhere between the pop punk genres. They are currently signed to Drive-Thru Records and Geffen Records.

During the Summer of 2004, the band was growing exhausted from spending years on the road, and they decided to take a break. During the hiatus, guitarist Josh Partington formed the band Firescape and recorded the five song EP Rearden’s Conscience in 2005. Lead singer and pianist Andrew McMahon, on the other hand, released a solo album Everything in Transit under the name Jack’s Mannequin on August 23, 2005. The day he finished recording, he was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. On August 23, the day the record was released, he underwent a bone marrow transplant, and is now on the road to recovery.

In the year 2006 the band considers themselves to still be on a break but they’re coming back this year! Andrew is still pursuing Jack’s Mannequin and Josh is still playing with Firescape. Brian Ireland (the bands drummer) has played with William Tell (ex SoCo member) and is the current drummer for the band Streamline. Clutch (Kevin Page, the bass player) manages the band Get Back Loretta.

You can download the songs on the page (for free of course) tell us what you think http://www.facebook.com/pages/Speak-Said-The-Poet/300594890000883

    "For me, the idea of making a new Something Corporate record is a lot farther away,” McMahon said. “I can’t see it happening. We did some shows that were a lot of fun. I can see us doing some dates every few years. But that’s it. I definitely have an empathy for people who love the old band; I’m that way with some bands. But there are some things you do when you’re 18 years old and there are things that you do when you’re 28.” FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

    They really are so much better than the bands that they got grouped with way back when.
