MAXX12 -- a new rock band with a provocative, post-apocalyptic message-
Comprised of three Bay Area '80s rock veterans, with music legend Ronnie Montrose as the band's executive producer, MAXX12 will show the world that Rock and Roll isn't kid stuff.

In fact, MAXX12's entire musical catalogue is based on outrage with the government and serves as a call to action for those fed up with how the country is run. Through songs from its debut CD, Raw, the band will express its frustration with the state of the country, and encourage the audience to stand up for their rights and join the MAXX12 Nation.

MAXX12 ushers in a new music genre -- Apocalypse Rock. Like its predecessors Psychedelic Rock, Rap and Grunge, Apocalypse Rock reflects the cultural and emotional state of today's world.

The band is fronted by "The Rooster" T. Michael Riddle, lead singer and guitarist. Riddle is an ardent supporter of constitutional rights. "Mongoose" Jon Hampton is bassist and vocalist. "Samurai" Craig Martin is drummer and vocalist. All three were touring rockers in the '80s. In addition to having musical talent, The Rooster, Mongoose and Samurai all possess their own unique urban warfare skills.

The Rooster's bloodline goes back to the great Choctaw Chief Chata, who led the Choctaw West to prosper. This unique genetic heritage makes the Rooster a shape shifter, and he is able to channel the animal spirits that have always surrounded him. Mongoose's heritage dates back to ancient India, where his Brahman mother gave birth to a mongoose son. When his father left to collect money, instead of watching the children, Mongoose was mistakenly killed for protecting his siblings from a cobra. Mongoose now protects the innocent from the greedy.

Samurai's DNA goes back to Yamamoto Tsunetomo, considered the greatest Samurai of all time. Tsunetomo's warrior spirit has been released once more in Samurai, who now draws his sword in defense of the last hope for humanity...the MAXX12 Nation.

The three have been recruited by a privately funded organization -- NexCorp -- and have spent 10 years in training to battle the elite New World Order forces that are trying to dominate the world.
