Darren Korb, Jeremy Parker, and Evan Reynolds, better known as Control Group, are experimenting with a new alchemy of pop hooks and punk attitude, and they are leaving audiences perplexed, humming, and smiling.

Darren and Jeremy met programming downloadable content for Rock Band video games, working with labels like Sub Pop, Razor and Tie, Prospect Records, and many more.
