The War of Swag

The War, also known as The Great War but in official documents as The War of Swag, was the first war The Penstares fought in.

Until the dark times, the Penstares had lived in harmony selling their music to their loyal fans and being awesome. But with success comes challenges, and one major challenge would be rivalries. A group of nonbelievers known as The Super Swaggies came into the Penstares' lives and almost destroyed them. Sparked by The Four Square Conquest, and officially started by the First Shots, the Super Swaggies almost won the Penstares' fans with their heavy autotune and lack of talent that they tried to hide. The Penstares were afraid of these beasts stealing their spotlight, so they declared war.

The War raged on for many years, and fractured both groups, but eventually both groups disbanded.

But, like Jockey Jockey says, "War never changes," and the resulting tensions resulted in The Don War.
