Antioch Arrow

Antioch Arrow was an American screamo band from San Diego, California. They were on the seminal post-hardcore label Gravity Records, responsible for putting San Diego on the map in the mid-1990s as one of the centers of the movement. Bands like At The Drive-In and The Blood Brothers have cited them as an influence.

They embarked on 3 different tours within the United States. The first was a week-long tour of the West Coast in the spring of 1993. The second was a month-long tour of the U.S., spanning late June to Early July 1993. The third and final tour was originally supposed to be for 6 weeks from early June to late July 1994. However, van troubles and inter-band conflict ended the tour in early July with the band canceling many shows across the Northwest. Their last show ever took place in a truck trailer in Boulder, Colorado around July 6, 1994.
