Punch
Genre: Hard Rock/Alternative
Hometown: Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario
Members:
Curtis McKenzie (Project 421, Eclipse), vocals
Daniel Horton (Project 421, Eclipse), guitar
Steven Flint (Mourning Wood), bass
Ben Boudreau (The Suicide Kings, Limelight), drums
Audio/Video: Punch wrote & performed a handful of original songs during their brief run, including "By The Hand", "Road Rash" (which is embedded below), and their own self-titled song, while also adopting the then-defunct Haggith's original "Metal Cage" as their own, given that Curtis & Daniel co-wrote it for & played it with that band. Though affiliated with PaperClip Productions, Punch never released any studio material, but Haggith took on Punch's originals as their own after their 2014 reunion, recording a studio version of "Road Rash" in 2015 for their final EP "XIV" with Steven on guest bass. Also, Curt & Daniel's current band Eclipse have adopted Punch's self-titled song under the new title "Rebel From Above".

I hope you guys liked this month's Defunct Local Band Profile! Next month, we'll enter the fall with a double profile due to our first randomly selected band not having a lot of surviving material, so who are we looking at? To round out another 2-1-3-1-2-1 cycle between the Twin Saults, we'll first look at early 2010s Sault Michigan acoustic hard rock band All The Dirty Words In One, while we'll begin a new rotation with a look at inactive Welland/Sault Ontario solo project The Last Warrior of Rock, fronted by ex-Late & Loud singer/guitarist Jonathan Tiberi! Look for these on or around September 10th, and for weekend concert previews next! Thanks everyone!
