The Honor System were a punk rock band from Chicago, formed in 1999 by Dan Hanaway and Rob DePaola, after the breakup of their previous band The Broadways. The band briefly featured future Rise Against frontman Tim McIlrath as a bassist. They broke up in 2004, leaving behind two studio albums and three EPs. ==History== The Honor System initially consisted of former members of The Broadways, Dan Hanaway (vocals, guitar) and Rob DePaola (drums), along with Nolan McGuire (guitar) and Tim McIlrath (bass, vocals). Their first release was a 1999 demo cassette comprising the songs "Fool's Good", "Single File" (the band's only song with main vocals by McIlrath) and "Facelift". This demo was reissued by Solidarity Recordings in 2010 on 7" vinyl record and as a digital download. In 2011, it was released on CD as part of Solidarity's compilation of the band's first few releases, ''Collection''. Soon after, Chris Carr replaced McIlrath, who went on to form Rise Against. The band recorded and released their first full-length album ''Single File'' on Asian Man Records in 2000, featuring re-recordings of "Fool's Gold" and "Facelift" from the demo tape. The band's second release, the six-song EP ''100% Synthetic'', was released on Double Zero Records in May 2001. Later that year, McGuire left and was replaced by Tyler Wiseman, formerly of Tuesday.〔>("Experienced Lineup to Debut Saturday at Friends" ). Dennews.com.

This was followed three months later by the band's second full-length recording, ''Rise and Run'', which featured re-recordings of the EP's first 2 tracks. Shortly after ''Rise and Runs release, the band went on hiatus when DePaola left to look after his ailing mother.〔(Audio 48 ).

An early incarnation of the band recorded some demos, before Carr returned on bass, joined by ex-Sweep the Leg Johnny drummer Scott Anna on drums. The new line-up recorded and released a self-produced debut EP, ''Count the Electric Sheep'', in 2006. Whale|Horse no longer appears to be active, but Hanaway and Carr have continued playing together: they formed the band Ratasucia, who released the debut album ''White Noise Pollution'' in 2011 and have played concerts. In August 2008, Solidarity Recordings released ''Single File'' on vinyl for the first time, in two colours (limited to 400 and 100).〔 (Thread 16394 ). proboards.com.〕 In September, I Hate Punk Rock Records reissued ''Rise and Run'' in 3 colours and as a special edition featuring all 3 standard colours and 3 rare presses, limited to 5.〔(Id 454 ). ihatepunkrock.net.〕 In April 2010, Solidarity Recordings reissued a remastered edition of the band's original 1999 demo tape, on three colours of 7" vinyl and digital download (Amazon MP3 and iTunes).
