Angry Babies

About Me

The Angry Babies were formed in a Motel room off I25 in Albuquerque New Mexico 1986. Bugs Bunner, Eric McFadden and the 7 bass players that followed made a name for themselves in the southwest area. With the release of From the Womb in 1988 with Eric Hollinger on bass, the popularity of the band started to grow. Songs like Pull Out, Beer is Better, and Sloppy Seconds became crowd favorites. In the fall of 88, Eric Hollinger quit for personal reasons and the multitalented David Graham was recruited to fill the slot of bassist. Sold out shows every time these guys played, nothing was off limits, naked guitar playing, babies in chains, naked women, drunken debauchery, it was all there.1990 brought the release of Up From The Womb in which a newer more polished sound that the Band carved out. Songs like Gang in Blue, Take Pills, War, with Joey Abbin on guitar, The band started to take on a more serious side to their music and it showed when they played. With the departure of David Graham a year later in 1991, they added a Bassist name Pun kin.With the boredom of playing shows Bugs and Eric got an itch to record again. Mr. Toyhead was released in 1992, Songs like Frieda & I, Clown gone bad and Baby Needs, It seemed that the intrest was there but how do you market this music? The album was recorded in Santa Fe New Mexico. 3 videos were shot and released in the fall. A tour was soon set in motion. To quote Dave Graham “the terrible taco bell in a van tour” began and about halfway through the tour, the many Bushmils bottles and Taco Bell wrappers rolling around the floor had its toll on everyone. It was enough to finally break the Camels back. A broken dream and the guys headed back home. Daniel was diagnosed with Carpel Tunnel and the band went on a hiatus. Eric played a few shows to keep peoples interest and it was finally over with the last show played. This page is dedicated to the band members, their loyal fans, their families and friends to whom ever kept the Beer money flowing.For 20 years I have missed this music, from the guys in the band to the fans that went to see them. This is my little homage to the most fantastic guys you'll ever meet playing music.
