Children of the Night (2011)

Forming in the fall of 2004, Children of the Night, a side project put together by singer Jason Tankerley and songwriter/producer Mike Rendini, began doing complex renditions of Misfits songs, before putting together original material containing the same morbid feel crossed with the catchiness of 50s Doo-Wop and early 60's rock n roll.

Initially self released under the Children of the Night moniker in 2006, the aforementioned material saw a proper release in 2011, as Energy's Children of the Night EP.

Apparition Sound, I Play for Keeps, & A Tribute to the Misfits (2012-2016)

After becoming the sole songwriter for Energy in 2012, Jason Tankerley began writing songs for what would eventually make up Energy's 2016 album Apparition Sound, released through Monster Party Records.

During this time, Energy released the single "I Play for Keeps" in February of 2012 and a music video for the song "Another Yesterday" in October.

Energy (2018-present)

Energy then went on to release a self titled compilation album Energy in 2018, which is a compilation album spanning the first five years (2012-2017) of lead singer Jason's musical output as the band's sole songwriter.

It was announced in June of 2021 that Energy will be releasing a cover version of the Samhain song "Archangel” for the album "World Without End: An Underground Tribute To Samhain" on July 9, 2021, via Black Donut Records.

Musical style and influence

The band has been cited as an influence by Creeper and Our Time Down Here.
