A couple of months after graduating from high school, Mikey Carnevale (vocals/guitar) and RichardDotson (bass) got together as The Frights to play a one off 30 minute set as sort of a joke. The feeling
they got from the crowd in their hometown of San Diego inspired them to become a "real" band almost
in spite of themselves. Along the way, they recruited Marc Finn (drums) and released You Are Going To
Hate This (produced by Zac Carper of FIDLAR) in February 2016. Jordan Clark (guitar) added to the
band's musical prowess in the ensuing year of touring around North America. The Frights signed to
Epitaph in early 2018 and got to work on Hypochondriac. Like You Are Going To Hate This, the band’s
third full-length was produced by Zac Carper of FIDLAR (who’s also produced albums for SWMRS and
Dune Rats). But for Hypochondriac, Carnevale took a more deliberate and exacting approach to his
songwriting, resulting in The Frights’ most nuanced work to date. After a sold out show at The
Observatory North Park in their hometown of San Diego the same date as the release of the album, the
band embarked on the Hypochondriac headline tour that is documented on their upcoming live album.
