MARCH is an alternative rock and punk-influenced outfit primarily associated with the Orange County and Los Angeles music scenes. Emerging in the mid-2000s, the band carved out a niche by blending the atmospheric depth of space-rock and post-grunge with the visceral energy of punk rock.
Their sound is characterized by Paul Schulte’s wide vocal range and a rhythm section that emphasizes soulful, honest rock and roll over genre tropes. Their 2007 release EP3, mixed by the legendary Howie Weinberg, marked a significant shift toward a more sophisticated, dynamic sound that drew comparisons to Failure, Stone Temple Pilots, and early U2. Critically, they are noted for their 'intelligent' brand of rock, which avoids the clichés of the era by focusing on complex arrangements and emotional sincerity. They have maintained a presence through various releases including the 2023 album Get In, which solidified their reputation for high-intensity, guitar-driven music that bridges the gap between underground punk and mainstream alternative rock.
