THE MESSENGER BIRDS GRAMMY AWARD WINNING ALBUM IT’S ALL A BLUR – OUT NOW GUARDRAIL Guardrail is the world’s first Diet Punk band. Basically, we understand we’re not punk—Minor Threat and Good Charlotte have that covered, thank god. We’re also not really pop, which explains why we haven’t hit it big. We’re just a combination of those things that uses Splenda instead of real sugar. And because of that, until you get used to us, we’re going to leave a bad taste in your mouth.

The Messenger Birds is not a rock band—it’s just two guys. But there is more to this two-piece than meets the eye and a lot of noise to back it up.
