Girls Against Boys is often credited with being the band that made hardcore sexy. With a pedigree deep in Washington, D.C.'s legendary punk scene, the band's members migrated to New York City and gave the music on which they were raised a decidedly swanky twist. Though GVSB's music is certainly loud, aggressive, and muscular, it's also infused with touches of electronica and a moody almost noirish tone that give it a distinct identity amidst a sea of loud, angry indie-rock bands. GVSB jumped from indie labels to major labels and back again during its heyday, and as of 2007, the band continued to tour and record.
