"We have arrived, nothing will be the same" - BaD LuCk FaIL
Who are The Vandals? The Vandals are a group formed from the positive euphoria and dark mind of a guy IRL with the last name "Snyder" These members were slowly formed over a period of 10 years and provide the mental and artistic escape for the INFJ recluse "Snyder" through hip hop music. Each member represents a different side of Snyder and overall makeup of the quiet gentleman as he walks the thin line between insane and gifted. There are 5 members of the Vandals aka "the god hand" that a guy IRL named Snyder manages.
1. J-Snyder - The first, this character represents the conscious, soulful, and laid back side of Snyder and was the first to step into the light. With a long discography and aim to insight meaningful thought heavy lyrics from personal experiences and feelings, Snyder's curiosity of indie/underground/alternative rap led to the split of J-Snyder and the creation of the second. J-Snyder acknowledges and respects Shane Snyder and tries to provide wisdom and guidance to Bad LuCk FaIL but.....rarely does he get through.

2. Shane Snyder - The second, this character represents the angry, underworld, suffering and agonizing evil thoughts of a guy IRL named Snyder. With a god complex IDGAF attitude and fierce presence from the pent up anger that good sex couldn't cure, he is not for the judging or easily offended. Shane often spends his time reading about historical events, science, conspiracy theories, and dark fantasy novels in his past time and is not fond of the other group members except Vann.

3. BaD LuCk FaIL - The fourth, this character was born from the fusion of both J and Shane Snyder and is probably the most rambunctious and clever of the group. He is the closest to IRL a guy named Snyder and was developed from two factors. 1. All the bad luck, embarrassment, and fails in life and music a IRL guy named Snyder has endured and 2. Just being himself with his own style bred over a 5 year hiatus utilizing witty punchlines, clever wordplay, and entendres referencing anime, video games, tv shows, movies and pop culture that nearly anyone can relate too and even laugh at . He looks up to Shane Snyder, but also J-Snyder for their different persona's. BaD LuCK FaIL primarily works with Vann and often follow his guidance when recording songs.

4. J-Snizzy - The third, this character handles the production for J-Snyder and other various artists that have collaborated with him. With thousands of beats under his wing, he was formed by Snyder during his first year of college and has since honed his craft into what it is today. His production rely's on jazz and soul samples to provide musical landscapes that provide a smooth and level platform for J-Snyder during the versatilities gift series. Jsnizzy also produces R&B though it is rare. He is the brain and and overseer of how tracks come together when working with J-Snyder and reluctantly Bad LuCk FaIL.

5. Vann - The Fifth, the latest member of the group. Vann is the J-snizzy to J-snyder, but to Shane Snyder. He often digs for obscure samples of all genres and enjoys keeping his production different, but dope. Vann believes his style is what he'd call the "new old school boom bap" whatever that means. Vann primarily works with Shane Snyder and BaD LuCk FaIL often providing subtle to simple production to aid the both of them. Vann is also the brain behind how songs are recorded and put together often stringing together thoughts and ideas to give songs more life. His first official full length creation is V.O.C with BaD LuCk FaIL.
