Post your band history[views:71707][posts:217]________________________________________ [Aug 29,2008 10:57am - thuringwethil ""] I had a bunch of old shit on my ipod, it was fun listening to. Was trying to remember where my taste in music / playing abilities were at then. of course this is gonna date the motherfuck outta me but I don't give a shit anymore. Carnivore (1985) -- Guit/Vox -- no, I wasn't aware of the real Carnivore at the time. This was the summer I first heard Venom. Out of the Blue (1986/7) -- Guit -- blech to that name but we did some decent rock covers like Cheap Trick and Hendrix. 'Among the Living' had just come out and I was totally into Anthrax at the time. No one else in my universe was. Chernobyl (1987-9) -- Guit/some vox/bass -- started to do originals. Listening to the old rehearsal tapes is kinda funny, because it's mostly us making poop jokes. We were the only band on campus. The Dean of Students hated our guts. Justine (1991-4) -- Bass -- one of my favorites. People were split on us because even though the recordings were awesome we were kinda sloppy live. I had just started using distortion on my bass. Crowning achievement was opening for Wargasm. Bloarg (1992-4) -- Guit/Lead Vox -- Just me and my friend Nicole on drums. We looked for a bass player for the longest time but no one came through. I was sick of Guns and Roses and Whitesnake and all that Poodle Rock and TOTALLY into Nirvana before they got unreasonably huge. A lot of our music was like Babes in Toyland. Thankfully this is one of the better documented bands I was in, so I have tons of tapes and vids. I miss Nicole. She moved to London. The Tulips (1994-5) -- Bass -- I was more of a hired gun but damn that band was fun. Straight ahead noise rock. My first CD I ever played on, I still love listening to it, totally smug. Champale (1994-6) -- Guit/Lead Vox -- this actually ended up being one of the sickest bands I ever played in. Finally a frontperson in an all-girl band. I don't like playing guitar that much anymore but my playing / songwriting was actually starting to take off finally. I wish I still had some of our live videos. Mourn (1997-8) -- Bass -- OOOOOOOOOHHHH YEAH. So fucking Metal. Finally. Three 7"-es total, I played on the last one. The drummer was gonna be in Unearth but he kinda freaked out for some reason. Band disintegrated with one cryptic phone call. Bummer, I really miss this one. Maggotzoid (1999-2001) -- Guit -- HAHAHA, this was a crazy metal band with an even crazier singer. You know that drag bar Jacques in Boston? Well Belinda our singer used to perform there doing a hybrid hip-hop/Slayer performance art thing, and this band was the logical extension of her sci-fi / Voivod writings she'd done like, 19 years before. Totally certifiable individual. She freaked out on me once because she couldn't find her bike helmet. We recorded an awesome CD though, I can burn it for anyone who gives a fuck. The bass player and drummer later joined that REAL metal band Neptune (all the guitars are made out of scrap metal). Pornbelt (2001-2003) -- Bass -- You may've heard of this one. Totally balls-out distorted, riot grrl crazy rock. Tried to get the band back together this year for a reunion show but the unfortunate update is that it doesn't look like it's gonna happen. Bummer, we had a really good re-rehearsal earlier in the year but I think the singer really wants to focus on school. The good news is you can hear the songs on myspace now. Disemboweller (2003) -- Bass -- Tried for a long-ass time to get some metal going. We dead Death covers and a few originals. Unfortunately drummer drama led to a quick, and unfortunate demise. But then a certain kickass blonde female guitarist came to jam in our room and that led to something really fuckin' awesome. Hekseri (2003-present) -- Guit/Vox -- BLACKDEATHBLACKDEATHBLACKDEATHBLACKDEATHBLACKDEATHBLACKDEATH. I miss the Megan. Seth is now in that awesome band Herugrim (the latest I think is that he ain't moving to Australia???). Jason is moving to Dorchester September 1st. Spoorloos (2006-present) -- Guit/Bass/Vox/Synth) -- My bedroom acoustic black folk project. I have to get off my ass and finish a few songs, they have some potential. Basic tracks are all recorded. If this goes live I probably just have my friend Slamber on the drums. Keep ya posted. Wuornos (2006-??????) -- Guit -- All female metal death. Brutal lyrics from deathchick. Who knows what'll happen with this. It'd be a shame to have lasted even less time than Mythic, but hey. Anything can happen. Available on myspace (I think as Wuornos666 . . . . ) Karada Tokase (2008-present) -- Bass -- back to wicked fast, old-school, straight-up, no high fructose corn syrup Punk/HC. ZJD Ryan writes some really fuckin' awesome songs so I'm psyched for this. Looking for a drummer, only missing element. Click my username for the myspace link. Untitled black industrial/ambient project (2008-present) -- various -- also so psyched to be working with Liz and Sam, holy god. This is going to be sick and mean and HOPEFULLY listener unfriendly. Kind of in the writing stages presently, but will post soundfiles as the project develops. \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ I hope I can edit this in 2009 so I don't have to fuckin' re-type everything. :pukeface: VOMIT |

| ______________________________________________ [Aug 29,2008 11:49am - MarkFuckingRichards ""] -Weapons Of Mass Destruction (1998-2000)-Guitar-Terrible wannabe Metallica band, but they were the only kids in my school that listened to any form of metal that wanted to be in a band. We covered For Whom The Bell Tolls and it was horrific. We also had 3 guitarists, 2 of which also sang...terribly. We played tons of parties and school gigs though, so it was a good experience for a first band. -Skeletor (2000)-Guitar-Weapons Of Mass Destruction decided we needed a better name, and Skeletor was that name. We had a He-Man & The Masters Of The Universe bedsheet as a backdrop. We lasted about 3 months, and I don't think we ever wrote anything differently from WMD, haha. -Upon Crimson Wings (2000-2004)-Guitar/Backing Vocals-When I met Dave Maggot in my junior year of high school, I was exposed to a wider variety of metal, and more quality metal at that. At first we were called In God's Descent, but decided that sucked. Then we called it Fatal Embrace, and realized it was already a band. Finally we landed on UCW after a story that Dave had written. It transformed from blackened death metal to melodic death metal, then before we broke up we added more brutal and thrashy elements. We may be doing a reunion CD since we never got to end the way we should have. -Sedate (2002)-Guitar-Dave Maggot's younger brother Joe had a band called Sedate and were hurting for members. Dave and I decided to help them out a bit, but it didn't work out for us in the longrun. At the time it was black metal with some Gothenburg style death metal mixed in. -Curbstomp Castration (2002-present)-Guitar/Vocals/Drums/Fake French Accent-One day Dave put a sign on my amp in our old UCW practice space that said "Fuck with anything and you get a curbstomp castration." Being the bored weirdos that we were, we decided it was a good name for a goregrind band from Quebec. Thus we spoke with fake French accents and everyone just moved around on all instruments. There were/are limitless members; anyone could be in it at any given time. We only did improv sets and they sucked so bad they were good. Eventually we started jamming this stuff out with good ol' MSD and maybe if we're bored we'll record something someday. -Terminally Your Aborted Ghost (2002/2005-2008)-Guitar/Vocals-Originally started as somewhat of a fun project between 3 straightedge dudes that worshipped CODC and Discordance Axis, then eventually turning into weird, slammy death metal with grind aspects, TYAG actually went somewhere when it probably shouldn't have, haha. We were really doing it as a half-joke but it caught on. Since Devon (vocals) was a little too gung-ho about it, I left since my main focus was UCW. In 2005, the "classic" lineup as some people call it fell apart and I was offered to join again. We did a tour, various in and out of state shows, an EP then went on indefinite hiatus until we got a sweet record deal in 2007. That fell through and then broke up for 8 million reasons. -Strappado (2004-2005)-Guitar/Gurgles-Evan (Sexcrement) and I met at Mass Art in 2001 and always wanted to do a project together. After UCW broke up and his band Veritas (formerly If Tomorrow Comes) broke up, we started doing what would become Strappado, a technical death metal band. We recorded a 2 song demo with Darren Cesca (Goratory, ex-Arsis/Burn In Silence/Pillory), then put the project on hold to do TYAG full time. Now Strappado is back in action, sans-MFR since I have 10,000 other things going on. -Sexcrement (2005-2006)-Guitar-When TYAG went on indefinite hiatus, 3 of us started Sexcrement, groovy as fuck death metal, with Adam from Goratory (since all of Goratory was busy with Burn In Silence) and Josh Staples. Obviously we had a fanbase before playing our first show since we had local legend Adam Mason fronting the band, haha. We played some of the most ridiculous shows ever, and quitting the band was the hardest decision ever, but it was inevitable due to the amount of travel I had to do, along with time taken away from what is supposed to be my career as an illustrator, haha. -The Death Perception (2006-present)-Guitar/Backing Vocals-Chris Helme (Smite The Righteous, ex-The Accursed/Polaris, etc.) had mentioned he wanted to do some sort of grind project with me a year or two prior to actually starting to write. We finally found the time to do it, and have written 14 out of a proposed 24 songs for a CD whenever we can get it done. One of the key aspects to this project is the slew of guest vocalists; I think there are only 3 or 4 songs that do not have a guest vocalist. -The Body Farm (2006-present)-Guitar/Vocals-When I quit Sexcrement I was deadset on not playing music for a while, but it had to be done. Overall The Body Farm is experimental metal, and will most likely be more of a studio project since bassist Max Lavelle is now in Despised Icon and Eliot (drums) and I have Composted and a slew of other things going on. -Composted (2007-present)-Guitar/Potty Mouth/Live Samples-Composted is the bread and butter of my musical history so far; every aspect of being in a band that I love is there: being an ass, not giving a fuck about what we do, playing decent shows, getting people to have a good time, and most of all play slammy/groovy/dynamic/somewhat technical music without having to try to hard. Plus Rich Horror ate 2 cakes on stage once. -Super Secret Project (???-???)-???-??? MYSTERY, huzzah! |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 29,2008 11:54am - MarkFuckingRichards ""] Oh, and in 2001 I did a solo techno project on Fruity Loops called Squink, haha. |
| _______________________________________________ [Aug 29,2008 12:04pm - BobNOMAAMRooney nli ""] I haven't done anything with music in a while Nameless electronic project 1998-2000 -My uncle gave me a sampler and I picked up some doofy music creation software with 13th birthday money, then I decided it would be an awesome idea to spend most of my summer making shitty ambient and some retarded hip-hop beats. I found a cd of this shit last month when I was helping my parents clear out their basement and it's fucking horrible. R.A.D. 2001-2003- Acoustic grindcore. Or "Flight of the Conchords" if all their songs were about WCW, dick jokes, the Holocaust, and Ted Nugent hunting kids we knew for sport. After about two weeks of that and seven or so 2 minute songs we filled out a 70 minute cd-r with power electronics tracks made on "MTV Music Maker" for Playstation 1. And as an aside, R.A.D. stood for Radical Awesome Dudes. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 29,2008 12:08pm - DestroyYouAlot ""] Years are very estimated. COW (93-95) - bass - Weird, Sabbath-meets-Cromags-meets-Van Halen-meets-Biohazard-meets-Happy Flowers stuff. Did a Skynyrd cover and several nursery rhymes. Mike (vox for A Poor Excuse and For the Worse) sang, Jeff (guitars in CFL) played drums, Shane (guitars and vox in Rectangle Club) played guitar, and I (hilarious interwebs lulz and Viking metal tomfoolery) played bass. Albino Monkey Stick (94) - vox / tabloids - The above, with everybody on different instruments, and me in a Mexican wrestling mask singing tabloid headlines. We also had a song where the lyrics were taken from a Wendy's training video (something about "white, red, and green" being the order you make a burger in). Mind's Eye (95) - bass - Not exactly Overcast. The other two guys are out in LA now, doing video game music now (Devil May Cry and other Capcom shit, mainly). Rasta Aliens (95) - me on drums, for some reason - Basically me and a couple of friends using the equipment from Mind's Eye to make really loud noises with lots of feedback at 4 in the morning on any given night. We covered "Lost me Cookie at the Disco", the Oppressed, several TV theme songs, and a Dead Kennedies song or two. Violent Few (97-98) - bass/backing vox - Terrible, terrible Oi band. We played with the Bruisers and managed to get on stage at the Rat at least once, so I guess it was worth it. I was the token mohawked fellow amongst the shaven. Ugly Stick (probably 97) - drums - Basically just formed because Jeff was in a terrible tough-guy hardcore band (Full Contact), they were supposed to play with Slapshot, and couldn't for some reason. So we did. Had songs exclusively about people we knew would be at the show, and why they sucked, as well as a country song called "Let's Find Some Beaver". We covered the Bruisers, with me on guitar, and I did a guitar solo where I fell down a lot. Annoyed the sound guy at the Living Room greatly. Victim 21 (98-99, 03 or 04) - bass / backing vox - Super fast hardcore stuff with some powerviolence mixed in. Tim from Nadir played drums, Jeff from CFL sang, and Nick from All Those Opposed played guitar. We got back together for a 5 year anniversary and got really drunk a lot. Wrote two of our songs in Mario Paint, and had a great one called "10-10-Suck My Dick," one about Gator, and one about aliens killing people at Hampton Beach. Ritalin is the Answer (02-04 or so) - bass / vox / programming - Powerviolence with electronics and other weirdness. Started off as a way to annoy my girlfriend, we "practiced" in her living room with me and my boy Bill making drum machine noises. Eventually turned into a live band of sorts, and pretty much just had songs about people we knew that sucked. Josh_hates_you played drums at one point. Dangerface (05) - bass/vox - No, not the oldschool metal band. Sabbath and Discharge and Type O Negative and Sheer Terror, pretty much. Basically me and the other guys from COW, minus Mike. Glasfear (0?) - every goddamn thing - Solo black metal / folkish stuff. MIDI is fun. Herugrim (nao) - bass/vox - You'll just have to wait and see. |

Hang 'em High - vocals - tough guy hardcore(members went on to Hammer Bros and solo projects) Cross My Heart - bass - Pop punk. I don't talk about this.

Hive Smasher - vocals - death metal with a touch of grind influence.(ex members of Entropy, Eviscerate, Trinity Test, and Brutal No.2) Dirt Bath - guitar/vocals - Solo project. Slow, ambient, acoustic/"triphop" in the vein of GY!BE, Telepopmusik, Isis, Portishead, and A Silver Mount Zion. |

Kid was a musical genius so we named the "band" after him. We only had 3 cover songs we played before we just got bored; Peter Gunn theme, Paranoid, and Modern Day Cowboy by Tesla. Bane of Existence (2000-2005) - Vocals - Loved and hated being in this band. If it wasn't for my back problems and some other issues I might've still been a part of it. Oh, and fuck AJASH!

Let's see Sydofex(whocares - whocares) - guitar - shitty band I started with Carlos on bass (singer of Archaeon), his brother on drums, his cousin on guitar. This was basically Metallica-inspired nu metal garbage. Went through some stupid turmoil, I got kicked out for no reason, then came back after Grant had joined and Carlos' cousin had left. By then we had decided to change our name to... Archaeon (2004 or so - present) - guitar - This is when we started to get serious. We even played eXposure at the Palladium after which, Carlos' brother left his drumming duties and Jackson took his place. We weren't really sure of our sound back then and wrote a SLEW of melodic pseudo-technical metal heavily inspired by Death. Years later, we've decided to take on a more brutal sound but still try to be musical about it. Now we have Mike on bass, Carlos on vocals, and EliotFuckingBayless on drums. Lots of fun. Expect more from us soon. <3 |
| ___________________________________ [Aug 29,2008 12:29pm - archaeon ""] unnamed first band (2001-2002/3?) we all started playing instrument at the same time, played a blink 182 song in front of my whole school in 5th grade. we were absolutely terrible. Caution (2003-2004) We started off as a like pop punk worship band but then formed into a Metallica worship band as we grew older. Sydofex (2004-2005) see martins Archaeon (2005-present) see martins Mortalis (2006-2008) I ended up joining because their old guitar player was being flakey and my first time ever playing with the band was at sasaugefest part deux. Tim wrote an albums worth of songs which we recorded drums for but never finished. we broke up due to lack of interest on mine and jacksons part because we were more interested in doing archaeon. Tim is willing to reform if anyone wants to play sum thrash braaa. |

My two favorite shows ever were at a burger place in Puerto Rico, and a basement in the middle of nowhere in Illinois. Betrayed By All is playing with Merauder on Saturday in Long Island. Maybe someone will actually buy some merch, probably not. Being in a band is lameass. |

| _______________________________________ [Aug 29,2008 12:48pm - orgymf@work ""] i don't rememmber years too well at all but here we go.... in high school, me and edmaggotfeast were in a bunch of different punk bands together (t.y.t.y., the smurfs, c.c.b., the s.t.d.'s, armistice, the assholes, and c.c.p.t.) in 1998 we started Maggot Feast. we made a demo (ten songs, noisily recorded, old school style grind) we started writing some droning/noisey/doom type shit....with some fast death metal parts mixed in....played a show with Anal Blast, played live on rttp (no one seemed to like it much) then we decided it would be funny to do some "mock-satanic" death metal, so we wrote and recorded the song "Adversary of Mankind" (which would have been the album title, but we stopped at that song) we recently decided to give up on M.F. because we have been dragging the name around for years with nothing to show for it..... in 1999 i tried out for anal cunt, seth told me i was in..... 8 months later john gillis was in the band, so my tryout, and one drunken practice that i barely remember was the extent of that. i was in a technical death metal band called "agony under glass" with James Swords, and Scott (goat throat) McFadden, and two kids whose names escape me......2000 i think......we wrote two songs, never got to play out, but i think James may still have a recording of this shit....which would rule, because it was some really good shit....but i haven't seen that kid in forever me and Goat Throat and "Death Metal Jim" Lawler started a bunch of garbage noise/grind bands that never went anywhere between 2002 and 2005 (rotted prostitute, boring orafice, torched orphanage, pissgasm, and hawaii is gay) during that time period, me, Goat Throat and Ben Goldberg (Benvocator) started the dumbest band ever "Ukranian Burger Harvest" blastbeats screaming about burgers, beer, wrestling and rape jokes....no guitar or bass. completely pointless joke band. lots of fun though. a few demos kicking around, played a few shows, had a blast with it. also during that time period, me, Death Metal Jim and our friend Renob had a really stupid noise project called "Shiatsu Excavation" it was 3 microphones hooked up to a 4 track, and we attempted to (improvisationally) turn vocal noise into music.....it was awful, but funny as shit..... we would usually put random crap like keyboard noises, guitar and samples on the fourth track. I occasionally do stupid shit on "Fruity Loops" noise/tardcore/electrogrind etc. when i get bored if i do it myself, i put it out under the name "Orgasmic Tortures" and i have a bunch of shit recorded with my drunken friend "Offensive Joe"...the "band" was called "Joe and Orgy's Abortion Clinic" at the end of 2005 Wayne (baronvonblastbeat) contacted me saying he wanted to put down the drumsticks, pick up the guitar, and start up Scum Bitch again.... so he asked me to play drums. we recorded a fuckload of demos, and drum tracks for an album.....right now he is looking for a label to release the album (which i'm assuming he will put guitar and vocals too if anyone puts up the funding)...... but we had to cut the whole thing short when he moved to texas (i think he's looking to reform the band down there) and currently i am in a band called "Channel 62" it's Basically old school grind/fast hardcore (picture a cross between Spazz, The Queers, Hellnation and Lack of Interest), and the lyrics are all stupid personal jokes. me and Kenny from the Doosh Bags were trying to start a grind band called "Fat Attack".....4 or 5 fat guys playing fast and screaming about beer and food....almost like U.B.H. but with bass and guitar. but our situation fell through. maybe someday? also...another "maybe soon" situation Rob Brown and Scott Darby were talking about reforming whoremastery and if they do, i may end up playing for them. |
| ______________________________ [Aug 29,2008 12:48pm - mOe ""] Spekulit (1998-2002) - My shitty high school numetal band I had with my cousin and best friend Mark who was in Cipher for like 3 years but now does session work all around NYC. We started out as straight up numetal but then I grew out of it by my junior year in high school and got into post punk, so we kinda became this wierd, jazzy ambient deftones-y....thing. The Dead Love the Living (2002-2003) - JUST gotten into heavy music, so we didnt quite know what we were doing at all. Kinda sounded like ETID with toughguy breakdowns. It sucked. Beard of Bees (2003-2004) - Post Emo indie rock/screamo band I had with Blue on bass/guitar and Meghann. Was more of a college band than anything else, though. For the Sake of Dying (2003-2004) - First legit band I did. Based out of NJ. AILD-type Metalcore with other influences thrown in. We were taking a stab at more DM material later on but it kinda fell on deaf ears in NJ since DM didnt get cool to those kids until like 2 years ago. We played some pretty big shows in the area, but it fizzled due to me moving back to college for my Junior year. This was also a band I had with Mark, my cousin. Raising Kubrick (2004-2005) - You know the deal with this. Good friends needed a drummer, so I obliged. Played a ton of shows, didnt write too much material. Put out a split with The Taste of Silver. Last show happened on my birthday. War On Our Shores (2005-2006) - Probably the most fun band I've been in to date. Had all the axes from The Hostage Heart in the band. We were just straight up moshy metalcore mixed with whatever the hell we wanted. Played some good shows, some bad ones but i wouldnt trade it for anything. We got Nate Johnson in the band towards the end bringing our Nate count up to 3, but just couldnt hold it together. The band isnt broken up, but we arent getting back together anytime soon on account of Biz Nate being in California working corporate for GC. The Final Battle/Deadwater Drowning (2004-2006) - The heaviest and most promising venture I was in that just couldnt get it right. Started out with just me and Steve (the finite/dwd) in Morgan Storage putting songs together. Nate and Seth soon followed and we got Mark from Mercury Switch on guitar after a while which lead to me being MS. Heavy, balls out deathcore. Played some AWESOME shows, including the 7a7p reunion in Binghamton, NY (youtube videos of that set are on the internet). Couldn't keep it together, mostly because of me living in Western MA and going through a bunch of shit personally. Played shows, got in a few fights, drank copious amounts of beer. If there was ever a project I wish i could resurrect it'd be this one. Mercury Switch (2006-present) - Awesome band that I wish wasnt so inactive. Have had two albums on Indianola records with a lot of tour experience. I joined in time to write the new album and record it. Its still in the mixing/touch-up phase but I'm proud of it. Its more metal than anything they've put out, but more melodic and hard-rock-y. Its not gay, I swear. Stay Tuned. Running With Karma (2006-2008) - Dancy indie rock stuff based out of western MA. Wrote and recorded the new album, "Ferocious." Good stuff, but too much drama. |
