Hardcore punk rockers Over My Dead Body formed in early 2000 after the demise of former bands like Unbroken, and instantly Daniel, Aaron, Rob, Tommy, and Scott became a solid straight-edge foursome playing shows in and around their native SoCal. They issued several split 7" throughout 2000, and a debut EP, No Runners, was released in early 2001. Their first full length, Rusty Medals and Broken Badges, appeared at the very end of the year. In 2002, a split single with Death Threat led to a co-headlining club tour that summer. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
