Ambitions began in 2005 as a way for Jay and Jeff Aust and John Ross to challenge the boundaries that separate hardcore and punk. Taking a range of diverse influences, not the least of which include Quicksand, Turning Point, Face To Face and Avail, Ambitions released a demo and began to play shows all along the east coast. In September of 2006, Ambitions released their EP «Question» on Think Fast! which garnered rave reviews and caught the attention of Bridge Nine Records.
After solidifying their lineup, with guitarist Jake Woodruff and Keith «Mad Dog» Sidorowizc, Ambitions hit the road with Modern Life Is War, Bane, Have Heart, Verse, Shipwreck and more. Ambitions released their debut LP «Stranger» on November 6 of 2007- which will once again challenge the definition of what is punk and what is hardcore.
