Dr. West was four kids from Oldham County playing fast, thrashy and sloppy punk rock. They played five shows in the summer of 2005. Never playing more than 15 minutes a set, they often played up to 10 songs in that time. Most of those songs were about zombies, pizza, and destroying the universe, and at least one of them was a horribly ruined Bad Brains or Nerve Agents cover.

Dr. West died in August 2005. Alex overdosed on heroin. Adam got killed in what some people call "The Trampoline Massacre 2005". Danny and Jake murded each other at band practice. Alex is now in a metal band (from what I hear), and the rest of Dr West is in a new thrash/grind band called Camps.

Hella good times, dude.
