F.Y.P, the Five Year Plan, was a punk rock band founded in 1989 by Todd Congelliere, a predecessor to his more recent bands Toys That Kill and Underground Railroad to Candyland.[1] During its history (from 1989 to 1999), it had a total of 20 different members.[2]

History

F.Y.P, or the Five Year Plan, was a punk rock of Todd Congelliere that preceded the more recent bands Toys That Kill and Underground Railroad to Candyland. The group began as a one-man band with a cheap Fisher Price drum machine providing the beat. Congelliere began work with F.Y.P in 1989, and disbanded it in 1999. The band saw improvements to its talent and gained notoriety in the DIY punk scene for touring the world several times, bankrolled and set up by the Conge.

During this ten-year span, F.Y.P toured Europe several times, Japan once, and the U.S. numerous times. In that time, they released over a dozen records on the Recess Records label, and received coverage in music magazines such as Maximumrocknroll, Razorcake, and Flipside.
