Artist History The Depraved started humbly in Granada Hills, California, of 2000 Where George Tapia (vocals) brought the band together; Jesse on guitar, Mike on drums, Tyler on bass, and a few other faces that didn't seem to stick. They underwent a barrage of name-changes, too many to mention. They then went under the name "The No-Shows" for a period, which was coincidental since they never actually played any shows under that name due to the events of life. However, after creative differences, George was asked to leave the group and Jesse reluctantly took over as leadman. They then went under the name "Defective End" which finally evolved to "The Depraved". For about a year they played within the Sylmar punk scene, which proved to be quite promising at the time, along with other bands such as N*A*D and Intermind. However, due to ambiguous circumstances, The Depraved disbaned in the Fall of 2001. They were renowned for keeping their style strictly old skool like the punk of yesteryears, simple 3 chord songs with fast drum beats and angry lyrics. The song "Ghetto Blaster" was their most popular song and proves to be an example of the energy of the late Depraved.
