Antioch Arrow was an American punk rock band from San Diego, California. The group was formed in 1992 by vocalist Aaron Montaigne, bassist Mac Mann, and drummer Ron Avila. They released their debut extended play, The Lady is a Cat, through Gravity Records in 1993. After recruiting guitarist Andy Ward to replace Aaron Richards, they released another EP, In Love With Jetts, the following year. The band embarked on three tours across the United States before disbanding in 1994. Their final album, Gems of Masochism, was recorded and released following the band’s dissolution in 1995 by Amalgamated Recording Corp. Antioch Arrow is recognized for its influence on emo and post-hardcore music of the late 1990s and early 2000s.
