Strongarm and the Bullies are currently working to get the new site up and plan to promote the eventual release of our first official U.S. release, featuring newly recorded tracks from “You Had It Comin’” and a bunch of new tracks we never got recorded – some that y’all heard at the shows.
"STRONG ARM AND THE BULLIES from Southern California have a raging new street rock CD fresh in the stores for you! You Had It Coming is the distillation of many nights playing shit-kicking rock 'n' roll in all the crappy little dives up and down the California coast."
- Maximum Rock and Roll, Issue 275, April 2006
It came out good!! I still say you guys have one of the weirdest mix of influences I've ever heard: there's Oi!, HC breakdowns, a little bit of Country/Psychobilly, and this COS kinda vibe, which I think comes mostly from (the) vocals. It's a pretty unique combination, and I mean that in a good way.”
-Mark Rainey, owner, TKO Records
"Cool guitar! Big fat rhythm, and cool leads! Vocalist has big balls!
This band is classic pre-Blink 182 sugar-coated pop punk! This is real! This is good!
About bloody time!"

"This is pretty tight, fast punk rock ... Singer has a rough sounding, tough voice that is a welcome break from a lot of the Emo, college kid sounding stuff like Green Day or the Get Up Kids. I'd compare this band to a punk version of say something like Motorhead.
Good stuff!"
