Behold! The second coming of the infamous AZPunk.com Thrash of the Titans battle will descend upon the masses towards the end of 2010. In the meantime, there is MUCH for us to accomplish. If you missed the first round of TOTT in December of '07, you missed out on the greatest battle of the bands-type event Arizona has ever seen. I know what you're thinking, "battle of the bands shows are for leprochauns and babies" (I know that's exactly what you're thinking, too). BALDERDASH! This isn't your run-of-the-mill collection of random crappy local bands, desperately seeking relevance and a quick $1000 prize. NO! This is you're complete UN-run-of-the-mill collection of random artists from crappy (j/k) local bands desperately seeking fun times and a quick prize of a personal sense of accomplishment, and maybe even the possibility of creating an entire new band out of nothing! Still sound stupid? Tell that to our last Titan winners, BroLoaf. Three years, 2 EP releases, an upcoming full length album, multiple member swaps and an spot on this year's San Diego's North Park Awesome Fast event, BroLoaf is still raging stronger than they day they first hit a beer bong on stage.

In the immortal words of Nice Guy Eddie, "Ok, first things fuckin' last." Here's the general breakdown of how this thing goes:

1. You go to the Titans Registration page and sign up on the left column form for a chance to be placed in either vocals, guitar, bass or drums. You only need to sign up once.
2. We gather registration entries for two months. Once we've gotten enough entries to fill six 4-piece bands, we randomly select entries from a hat, and contact the musicians selected.
3. In July, we'll be making the announcement of everyone selected. These chosen 24 musicians will then be given instructions to attend an AZPunk meet-up, where they will be randomly placed in a band, select a band name out of a hat, and then will have two months to create completely new, original music, learn one cover song, and be prepared to perform at the next Thrash of the Titans 2 show (date TBA) under harsh scruitiny of their punk rock peers and drunken audience members for a measly 30 minute set.
4. These bands need names, and these names will be created by YOU! If you think you can come up with the wierdest, craziest, most abnormal or obscene name for a punk rock band, then hop over to the right column form on this page and enter as many new band names as you like. All band names submitted will be placed in a hat for the new Titans bands to choose from.

That's basically all you need to know right now. We'll be releasing more details as the months go on, but this is the first step, so go register and submit some band names!
