One Band, 5 Songs: One Man Army

Hailing from San Francisco, CA, One Man Army was formed by Jack Dalrymple (guitar, lead vocals), Brandon Pollack (drums), and James Kotter (bass) in 1995. Kotter was replaced on bass by Heiko Schrepel after the release of the band’s debut full-length Dead End Stories in 1998. Dead End Stories was the first release for Adeline Records. The band’s follow-up, Last Word Spoken, was also released by Adeline in 2000. In 2002 One Man Army released their final album, Rumors & Headlines, on BYO Records, with Chip Hanna taking over on drums. This lineup would record one final record, a split with Alkaline Trio, BYO Split Series, Vol. 5 in 2004.

In 2005 the band called it a day. Dalrymple went on to play in Dead To Me, Swingin’ Utters, and toyGuitar. In 2011, the band reunited with Pollack back on the drums and released their final EP, She’s An Alarm, in 2012 on Adeline Records.  The band ended for good after the passing of Schrepel in 2015.
