Band/artist history
One Saturday in 1991, my life changed forever. That was the day that the infamous "Zack Attack" episode of "Saved By The Bell" first aired. From that moment on, I made it my life’s goal to recreate the musical perfection that had been achieved for one fleeting half hour by Zack Attack. I spent years searching for the right musicians. I needed a hard-hitting yet technically precise drummer who could do service to the legend of A.C. Slater. I needed a soulful bassist who could match the grace and emotion of Lisa Turtle. I needed an edgy guitarist who could rip off inspired leads while tying the chords to the melody the way only Zack Morris could. I also needed a keyboard player to add soaring, awe-inspiring melodies and cheerful comradery to the group much as Samuel "Screech" Powers had done for Zack Attack. I also decided that I needed a whole fuck load of horn players just for the hell of it. While searching the world over (or at least large portions of Wisconsin) for a group of musicians as talented and insightful as the Bayside gang, I strove to pattern my own life after that of legendary Zack Attack front man Zack Morris. I took years of vocal lessons in an effort to make my voice resemble the powerful, yet angelic voice of Zack Morris. I also underwent years of physical training and plastic surgery in an attempt to mach the stunning good looks of the great preppy one. I have also attempted to infuse his easy going charm and stunning whit into my own personality. I Voted For Kodos has been together for almost 2 years now. In that time we’ve made great strides towards honoring the memory of the almighty rock legends known collectively as Zack Attack. We’ve brought joy to the hearts of many children across this country of ours through our ska. We’ve even recorded an album. It’s pretty good, I’d even say it’s above the level of the California Dreams, but it still does not match the musical genius displayed by Zack Attack. "She Hates Ska" is a good song, along the lines of "Love Is Not Like This," but it’s no "Friends Forever." And so, we tread on. Everyday of my life, I attempt to do the things that are befitting of a rock star of Zack Morris’s level. I shop at Claire’s. I dry hump everything in sight. I make frequent threats to poop myself in public. I alienate our fans by swearing at them. I make fun of everyone else in the band in an attempt to hide my own insecurities. I force my dad to wear dresses and sing depeche mode songs. I beat little kids with celery. I giggle anytime someone says "pro-noun." I duct tape orange juice to our record label guy. I even spread vicious rumors about our drummer so that girls will stop liking him and start liking me. Still, I seem to have fallen short of the vision somewhere. Nevertheless, I shall continue my struggle until the day I die. Zack would have wanted it that way.
