(1) Since forming in 2001, Sinaloa has been constantly writing songs and touring, while continuing to work their day jobs. They are often compared to and influenced by the post-hardcore bands of the 1990s from labels like Dischord and Gravity. They combine the fire of the DIY punk and a lot of life experience.
