MxPx was founded in Bremerton, Washington, in July 1992 by Mike Herrera, Yuri Ruley, and Andy Husted, all 15 years old at the time. Initially named Magnified Plaid, the band abbreviated it to MxPx for practical reasons on show posters. Their first major recording, a four-song 7-inch record, captured the attention of Brandon Ebel of Tooth & Nail Records, leading to their debut album, “Pokinatcha,” in 1994, released while the members were still in high school. This album established their raw Christian punk sound, characterized by fast tempos and a three-chord guitar style.
Following Andy Husted’s departure, Tom Wisniewski joined the band. MxPx went on to release “Teenage Politics” in 1995 and “Life in General” in 1996 with Tooth & Nail. In 1997, they signed with A&M Records, which re-released “Life in General.” This period saw records like “Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo” (1998), which charted on the Billboard 200 and was certified gold, and “The Ever Passing Moment” (2000), yielding the radio hit “Responsibility.” MxPx participated in the Vans Warped Tour multiple times throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s, sharing stages with bands like Blink-182, Bad Religion, and The Offspring. Their song “Scooby Doo, Where Are You?” was included in the 2002 “Scooby-Doo” movie soundtrack, and their album “Before Everything & After” (2003) reached No. 51 on the Billboard 200, their highest chart position to date.
After leaving A&M, MxPx signed with SideOneDummy Records in 2005, releasing “Panic,” which featured Mark Hoppus of Blink-182. “Panic” marked a return to their skate punk roots and included the hit song “Heard That Sound.” In 2006, the band received the key to the city of Bremerton in recognition of their contributions and marketing efforts related to their song “Move to Bremerton.” They later returned to Tooth & Nail Records for “Secret Weapon” (2007) and established their own label, Rock City Recording Company, under which they released the “Left Coast Punk EP” (2009) and “Punk Rawk Christmas” (2009). MxPx continues to release music independently, with their self-titled album “MxPx” in 2018 and “Find A Way Home” in 2023, showcasing their adaptability and sustained engagement with their fanbase through various mediums, including livestreams during the COVID-19 pandemic.
