About Me

Ooooooh yeeeeah... Who cares where we came from...? We only care where we're going. Long story short, we had a thing going before, but it didn't work out. We used to play cover gigs, where we would introduce our originals to the public amongst a slew of Hendrix, Rage, Soundgarden, SRV, & other influences. That's over...(although Sherif still does a kickass job of punching out some Hendrix tunes to break the monotony of rehearsal every now & then). We once wrote a parody of "Hey Joe", & called it "Hey O.J.", that was featured on the Howard Stern Show(yes...he did it...COME ON!!! That phuc'r wrote a book about it).

Anyway, we've got a new drummer, & we're working on recording some stuff so we can get out on the road, & promote the shit out of it. If you like what you hear, let us know. Thanks for the support.

...hmmmmplaying...(inside thing)

Special Thanks to Paul for the graphics!
