Banda de Hardcore Punk norte-americana formada en 1988 en Hermosa Beach, pequena comunidade ao sul de Los Angeles. Teve seu nome inspirado na criatura do livro de horror de Stephen King, It.
É uma das principais bandas da cena hardcore punk californiana atual, ao lado de nomes como NOFX e Bad Religion. Suas letras politizadas, sempre com muitos protestos, e som rápido, logo destacaram a banda na cena underground norte-americana, angariando fãs pelo mundo todo.
