Acceptance's sparkling rock themes unveil not only their previous musical experience, mostly coming from punk rock
ground, but also the crossbred musical wishes shared by each member of the lineup. Forming in
Seattle,
WA, Acceptance signed their particular
view of
alternative pop/rock not only
due to their
pure rocking influences, but also because of their candid pop preferences.
Jason (vocals, bass), Kaylan (guitar),
Chris DeCastro (guitar), and
Peter (drums) were the composing members of Acceptance when
the band first got together in 1998. Following a period during which the quartet discovered their distinct
creative path, they started playing their first shows, enjoying enthusiastic praise. This opened
the way to them recording their first disc. The EP The
Lost Words appeared in 1999, months before guitarist DeCastro decided to leave the
band to pursue his own
trail. It was after the band's last gig with DeCastro that
Garrett, who replaced him, offered to
join Acceptance. After the lineup
change, Acceptance continued to tour intensively, playing opening concerts for
crews such as the
Juliana Theory,
Element 101, and
Bleach. In 2003, Acceptance returned with their studio full-length
Black Lines to Battlefields.
