Biography

Unconcerned that they had no songs written or even a full band put together, Time Again vocalist Daniel Dart and guitarist Elijah Reyes booked themselves some shows in the summer of 2004 and began a heavy promotional campaign of stickers and flyers all around Los Angeles. It wasn't until a few days before their first gig that the entire group even came together; the enthusiastic duo was rounded out just in time by bassist Brian "Boom-Boom" Burnham and a drummer (who was replaced by Ryan Purucker the following January). Time Again -- a punk revivalist band with old-school aesthetics and a sound akin to Rancid -- was officially born. The guys continued to play in and around their hometown, eventually issuing their self-titled EP on Rancid Records the next June. Expanding in 2005 to venues outside of California, the group found itself sharing stages with bands like Social Distortion, the Circle Jerks, the Aquabats, and the Adolescents, to name a few. Their hard work quickly paid off, inking a deal with Hellcat Records (the Tim Armstrong-run Epitaph imprint) by January 2006. Their full-length debut, The Stories Are True, surfaced that April. ~ Corey Apar, All Music Guide

Time Again is a street punk band from Los Angeles, California. The band was formed in the summer of 2004 by Daniel Dart and Elijah Reyes. Before they even had a full band or a single song written, they began printing stickers and flyers for Time Again to heavily promote their band, resulting in numerous shows being booked. Time Again only came together as a full band a few days before their first show. The band says all their musical influences are Rancid, The Clash, and Op Ivy. In June 2005, Time Again released a self-titled EP on Rancid Records. This EP would result in heavy radio play on several Los Angeles radio stations, including Fungus 53 XM, which would name the EP as one of the top 25 albums of 2005, and the song "I Go Back" as one of the top 10 songs of 2005. It included a cover of Rancid's song "Tattoo". The band released their debut full-length, The Stories are True, on April 25, 2006, on Hellcat Records.

In August 2006 Brian Burnham left the band (He Is Currently In Mad Marge and the Stonecutters) and was replaced with Oren Soffer .

Tim Armstrong appeared on the band single "Stories Are True" on their first full length album Stories Are True.

The band released their new album Darker Days in early 2008.

Before their 2008 fall tour, Ryan Purucker left the band to return to his home state of Alaska, and was replaced with Jake Belush. In 2009 guitarist Elijah Reyes left the band for a two year long mormon trip. It is unknown if Elijah will return to the band in 2011.The band originally considered taking two years off to wait for him but ultimately decided to replace him with a long time friend guitarist Kris Idol.
