Order of the White Rose has been together since 2004. Their debut record entitled, "War Machine," was released in 2006.
In 2007, White Rose released a 7 inch EP, "Ghosts Of The Sidewalk/Seeds Of Destruction. All proceeds of this EP are donated to the food banks of Oahu and Maui.
We have shared the stage with some great bands like the DROPKICK MURPHYS, NOFX, ILL REPUTE, MDC, AGENT ORANGE, LEFTOVER CRACK, JEFFREE STAR and the BOUNCING SOULS and toured in California in April of 2007.
Order of the White Rose is currently booking dates for a west-coast summer tour in 2009. Please contact Steve@whiterosepunk.com if you are interested in booking a show. We are looking to go from Seattle to Los Angeles.
Currently, we are writing songs for a new record, slated to be released in July of 2009. The record is inspired by the revolutionary thought of Eduardo Galeano, Arundhati Roy, and George Helm along with many others. This upcoming record is an examination of the injustice suffered by indigenous cultures everywhere and White Rose joins these cultures in protest of globalization and exploitation.
Musically, the record builds on the foundation of "War Machine," maintaining the punk rock ethos while adding a huge slathering of percussion and a variety of punk and rock influences.
