Flybanger were a Canadian metal band. Once known as Jar, they released 2 CDs under that name before releasing a 5 track EP titled "Outlived" as well as their major label debut "Headtrip To Nowhere" as Flybanger through Sony Music in 2001. The band has since broken up. The singles released from "Headtrip To Nowhere" were "Cavalry", "Radical" And "Blind World". "Blind World" was also featured on the soundtrack for the major motion picture Dracula 2000 alongside other major acts like Powerman 5000, Disturbed, Pantera, Slayer & System Of A Down.
In 2005, band members Rob Wade (Drums) and Garth Allen (Vocals) joined Kill Rhythm, a band started by Rob Thiessen formerly of Noise Therapy.
In March 2009, following the breakup of Kill Rhythm, both Rob Wade and Garth Allen turned their focus to the Heavy Acoustic Rock project Thick Of It.
