1. A… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least two artists with the The Plastic Revolution.
1. An American poppunk band from San Diego, CA The Plastic Revolution (active from 2005 to present)
2. A Mexican indiepop group The Plastics Revolution from Mexico City DF, Mexico (active from 2007 to present)
1. This is for the American band The Plastic Revolution.
The Plastic Revolution (TPR) began in 2005 as a conglomerate of emotions and experiences deep within an adolescent mind living in the new millennium. Fronted by Jake Skolnick and joined by his friends from San Diego State University, TPR began playing the college scene, the largest of which drew over a thousand fans at a house party in which a two-bedroom guesthouse collapsed under the mountain of people standing on it; during which time the band didn’t even notice or stop playing until authorities arrived.
Releasing an independent acoustic album “A Night At 54th Street” in 2005, The Plastic Revolution went on to become one of San Diego’s most beloved underground pop punk bands, distributing over 2,000 copies. The music was raw and emotional, to which a group of SDSU sorority girls described as “Like a mixture of Muse, My Chemical Romance, Panic At The Disco, and The Used, with better lyrics…”
By 2007, The Plastic Revolution began to play larger venues and sold out an industry showcase in Los Angeles, CA, where they were approached by independent record labels, eventually opting to sign with their own independent label Mannequin Vanity Records because of a strong need to stick with their punk rock roots, and continue developing their sound.
By the end of 2007, their debut album “Planning For Chaos” was complete, in collaboration with The Plastic Revolution, Rdub Recordings, and Jeff Forest (Blink 182, Avenged Sevenfold, Atreyu, Incubus, As I Lay Dying) of Doubletime Studios. The album can be found on iTunes, Amazon, and Spotify.
Touring became an essential part of life in 2008 as the band crisscrossed the country from San Diego to Los Angeles, to Chicago, to New York City. TPR even performed at a benefit concert with Comedian Donnell Rawlings from The Dave Chappelle Show at New York’s Josie Wood’s Pub to raise money for charity.
The band began to gain fans and traction and decided to record a second studio album, which was completed by the summer of 2011. The band began consistently touring for the next year, well into 2012, with another cross country tour playing iconic venues such as the Troubadour in Los Angeles and Mother’s in Chicago. Touring eventually lead the band to France, where a few years earlier front-man Jake Skolnick spent touring acoustically, teaming up with BandapArt, a French folk rock five piece.
The music of TPR is bursting with substance and excitement. Characterized by nontraditional song-structure, fantastically catchy hooks, and exploratory lyrics, the music is a deep collection of thoughts, under the creative direction of Jake Skolnick, combined with the forces of Eddie Phanichkul, Nick Brownlee (formerly of The Last Troubadours), and Nick Turner (of the Asphalt). In 2013, the foursome added Regina Brown, an accomplished orchestra violinist who’s previously toured with Nervous Wreckords and Rihanna.
Currently, The Plastic Revolution is booking regional tours throughout the United States, while working on their third studio album due to be released at the end of 2013.
2. This is for the Mexican band The Plastics Revolution.
The Plastics Revolution is an indie pop band from Mexico City formed in summer 2007 after a group of high school friends sees The Flaming Lips performing live.
Their music is cheerful, catchy and fun. Their live shows, a multicolored party full of neon lights, confetti, costumes, and paper dinosaurs.
The Plastics Revolution has performed in important venues all throughout Mexico as well as in music festivals such as Vive Latino and SXSW. Currently, the band is promoting their second studio album King Bono vs Los Flight Simulators.

The lyrics to The Plastics Revolution's song Cleptosaurios speak of uncertainty and confusion about the future. The opening lines express the idea that someone always seems to know more about what's going on and what might happen than we do, and that this knowledge somehow puts pressure on us. The lyrics go on to suggest that we are promised an end to something, but nobody really knows for sure if it will come, or what will happen when it does. Throughout the song, there is a sense of hopelessness and despair, but a glimmer of light shines through in the promise of camaraderie and support from those around us - "because estamos aqui para darte lo que sea" ("because we're here to give you whatever you need").
There is an underlying heaviness to the lyrics that is also reflected in the music, which has a slow, steady beat that matches the somber tone of the words. The repetition of certain lines - particularly "no saben" ("they don't know") - creates a sense of frustration and futility, as if the singer is trying to convince themselves (and the listener) that nobody really has all the answers. Overall, the song seems to be about the uncertainty of life and the need for human connection and support to get through difficult times.

Quien sabe mas pensando en porque dicen que va acabar el tiempo siempre da un paso mas que nosotros es que siempre nos presionan porque va parar siempre nos prometen que este es el final pero quien sabe, mas sabes donde vamos a estar cuando te sientas solo porque estamos aqui para darte lo que sea
Those who know more, thinking about why they say time is ending, always take one more step than us. It's because we are always being pressured, and they tell us that it's going to end. But who knows? You know more about where we will be when you feel alone because we are here to give you whatever you need.
No esta de mas si nos vamos disfrazados a celebrar y no importara el lugar estaras con nosotros y te estamos ofreciendo otra oportunidad te estamos programando para continuar porque no esta de mas.
It's not too much to ask if we go disguised to celebrate, and it won't matter where we are because you will be with us. We are offering you another chance and programming you to continue because it's never too much to give you another opportunity.
Sabes donde vamos a estar cuando te sientas solo porque estamos aqui para darte lo que sea
You know where we will be when you feel alone because we are here to give you whatever you need.
y piensa que es el final pero no no saben y talvez estamos mal pero nadie sabe ohohohoh no!
You might think it's the end, but they don't know for sure. Maybe we are wrong, but no one knows, ohohohoh no!
no saben ohohoho no!
They don't know, ohohoho no!
no saben!
They don't know!
