The Inevitable Backlash is a rock band based in Los Angeles, California. The band released their debut in March 2007. The Inevitable Backlash's lineup has changed frequently, with only singer John Renton, a former member of Abby's Gone remaining from the original incarnation. Past and current members have included Jason Mackenroth, a former member of Rollins Band on drums, Matt E. Grossman on drums/percussion. Chris Stein, currently a member of Saccharine Trust on bass, Laena Myers Lonita of Residual Echoes and Starlight Desperation on bass. The most current lineup includes Jason Echeverria of Moonrats and Jonathan Hischke of Hella
The band released its first record in March 2007, the Sex for Safety EP . The group's style was compared to bands such as The Replacements and None More Black. It was recorded by Frances Miranda at Wetandry Studios on analog tape with zero overdubs. It was a critical success with Punk Planet Magazine hailing it as "Rock and Roll enveloped with lyrical themes of the industry's most assured seller –sex" and the Providence Daily Dose and 75 or Less calling it "One of the ten best records of 2007".
After the release of the Sex for Safety EP, the band embarked on the SEX FOR SAFETY TOUR with members John Renton, Matt E. Grossman, and Laena Myers Lonita. It was a highly emotional and colorful tour that was chronicled in the tour for life tumblr blog on the band's official website.
In Summer 2008 the band's official website showed photos of the band tracking at Manny Nieto's new studio supposedly working on a follow-up to the Sex for Safety EP. Additionally, it was announced that the most current lineup includes Jason Echeverria of Moonrats and Jonathan Hischke of Hella. In Fall 2008, it was announced that the new full-length album would be called My Two Brookes and released March 3rd, 2009 on Hegemony Records in the US.
