Memebers of The Spinanes, Tiger Trap, Kicking Giant, The Teamsters, and Wandering Lucy have all done a stint. They barnstormed the USA in the summer of '95, playing shows with Make-Up, Milkmoney and Action Patrol to name a few.Between '94 and '95, Dub Narcotic Sound System released a series of five limited edition 45's -- wowing DJ's, showgirls, punk rock shockers, cub scouts, and purveyers of fine rump shakery everywhere. These were followed by the fine 5 song "Industrial Breakdown" 12" and CD and the "Rhythm Record Vol. 1" full length LP.
