Comeback Kid is a Canadian
hardcore punk band from
Winnipeg,
Manitoba. Their name comes from a headline in a newspaper about hockey player
Mario Lemieux coming back to the NHL. The band was formed in 2000 by Andrew Neufeld and Jeremy Hiebert who were both members of the band
Figure Four, which is currently on hiatus. They were joined by their friends Scott Wade and Kyle Profeta, but CBK was originally intended only to be a
side project. Their initial popularity was mainly due to
word of mouth within the hardcore scene.
