Off with Their Heads is an American punk rock band formed in 2002 from Minneapolis, Minnesota, United States. Since their formation, they have often featured a rotating line-up of tour players, due to their members' other commitments and Off With Their Heads' own full-time touring schedule. Singer/guitarist Ryan Young has noted that having different musicians helps keep the band fresh.
According to the No Idea website, the band had planned to release The '69 Sound, a second singles collection of more recent split 7" material. However, this has since been refuted by No Idea, who commented saying "This thing will never happen."
On September 10, 2008, Off With Their Heads self-released a music video for "Fuck This, I'm Out"
In late 2009, the band was chosen as one of Beyond Race Magazine's "50 Emerging Artists," resulting in a spot in the publication's No. 11 issue (with Bodega Girls and J. Cole on the cover), as well as an exclusive Q&A for the magazine's site.
In February 2010, it was announced that Off With Their Heads signed to Epitaph Records, with a new record due for June 1 of that year.
While the line-up has never been stable, the band has always included Ryan Young and Justin Francis. Though Francis no longer tours with the band, he continues to write and record songs as the band's drummer and has played on every Off With Their Heads Record to date. Similarly, Zack Gontard (who joined in 2006) no longer tours with the band, but remains the band's guitarist (and backing vocalist) for the purpose of recording. Francis and Gontard's stand-ins for live performances are, as of September 2015, (and have been since 2012) Ryan Fisher and John Polydoros. Nate Gangelhoff had been the band's studio bassist from the recording of "Hospitals" through to the recording of "In Desolation" but was replaced by touring bassist, Robbie Smartwood, when the band recorded 2013's "Home."
After Ryan Young suffered a nervous breakdown the band dropped off of a Canadian Tour with The Flatliners in late 2013.The band took extended time from touring and only played sporadic shows over the course of 2014, later returning to the road in 2015.
"Off With Their Heads" is the sixth single by British rapper Devlin, and the second single from Devlin's second studio album A Moving Picture (2013), the song was released in the United Kingdom on 10 October 2012 and features British rapper Wretch 32. The song was written by James Devlin and Jermaine Scott and produced by Drop Lamond.
