The Unit Breed reside in NE Portland OR and have been recording, playing and touring consistently since 1998.
Our sound has taken influence from such artist as NoMeansNo, Steel Pole Bathtub, Nina Nastasia, Shellac, Blonde Redhead, Komeda, Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazelwood, Brightblack Morning Light, Firewater, Beirute, Neutral Milk Hotel, The Dead Milkmen, Clutch, Modest Mouse, etc.... We do not sound like these bands and rarely get compared to the same band twice. Our new material relies less on rock riffs and more on dreamy atmosphere. The lyrical content is whimsical and dark, sarcastic and true, surreal and ordinary.
Over the years we have booked all our own tours, recorded our own albums, and created all artwork and packaging. The Unit Breed are big fans of roller coasters, swimming, dada and surrealism, burritos, story telling, philosophy, and meeting fun outgoing creative open minded people. The Unit Breed are fans of you!
