Snakepit are a hardcore punk band based in Toronto, Ontario, though their guitarist is a native of Japan. They are well known for their explosive stage presence and having very wild live shows.

Only active for one short year (2009-2010) they accomplished a remarkable amount in that limited time. 25+ local area shows, 2 dates in the USA as well as an extremely successful week-long tour in Japan with some of the countries biggest bands(Aggressive Dogs, Vivisick and others). Additionally, in just 12 months they also had 3 formal releases(the debut EP recorded by Jonah Falco of Career Suicide/Fucked up and mixed by Juno-Winner engineer Jon Drew, an LP on No Contracts Just Trust and a 4-way split to be released in Asia, Europe and North America) as well as featured on a compilation, and appearing in MRR. Following the Japanese tour, guitarist Koty moved home to Chiba, just outside of Tokyo. Read more on Last.fm.
