Originally starting out as something to do after school, the members of Action League began to branch out of their native of Amherst, MA, in 1998. With their live ensemble of third wave ska-punk, the band would continue to play around the New England area before abruptly breaking up in 2000 as the individual members moved on to start college. The following year, their posthumous release of Who Is Lane Campbell came out through their own funding in February of 2001.
