Punchline is a pop-punk band from Belle Vernon, Pennsylvania, formed in 1998.
The first conception of Punchline included current lead singer / guitarist Steve Soboslai, current bassist Chris Fafalios and current drummer PJ Caruso. As a young three-man band, Punchline recorded poppy punk and sometimes ska-influenced tunes in the form of the short CDs "How to Get Kicked Out of the Mall" and "Major Motion Picture," and the full-length "Punchline." The band came into their own when they were joined by now ex-guitarist/vocalist Paul Menotiades, and the four recorded "The Rewind EP" with producer Sean O'Keefe.
