About Cute Is What We Aim For

Cute Is What We Aim For is a pop punk band from Buffalo, NY, formed in 2005.

Cute Is What We Aim For formed in Buffalo in 2005 and signed quickly to Fueled by Ramen. Singer Shaant Hacikyan's rapid, crowded lyrics and nasal delivery defined the band, and the single 'The Curse of Curves' was their best-known song.

Their second album, 'Rotation', followed in 2008 with a glossier pop-rock production. The lineup changed repeatedly around Hacikyan in the years after.
