Growth of Alliance

Port Costa's Growth of Alliance ruled the East Bay scene in the late '90s and early '00s with their tight mix of metal riffing, choppy funk rhythms, layered instrumentation, and spacy effects. With one full-length album and several EPs they displayed rare versatility and talent in their short yet exciting career. Vocalist/guitarist Kevin Gautschi went on to play with Maxwell Adams and drummer Hans List and bassist Dylan Gautschi can now be found in San Francisco's The Look.
