We're the "house" band on "It's Alive!" - a local television show in Pittsburgh which we write, produce, and star in (www.theitsaliveshow.com). On top of that, we're the organizing force behind Zombie Fest, World Zombie Day, and we established the Guinness Book of World Records for Largest Zombie Gathering @ historic Monroeville Mall (where George Romero's "Dawn of the Dead" was filmed). Not bad for a bunch of idiots.
Band/artist history
Prof and I (Pointy) have been working together off and on since Martin Van Buren was President. The TV show (www.theitsaliveshow.com) really started out as an excuse to play some music on television. Since then the show has grown and branched out into live events, recording, commercial spot production, charity work, and Guinness Book of World Records for Largest Zombie Gathering in 2006 & 2007. In 2008, we put together World Zombie Day with the participation of over 50 cities from around the world! DEATHMOBILE's debut CD was released on Halloween 2007 and is available @ CD Baby (www.cdbaby.com). You can get a downloadable copy for $5 there, or you can download some of our songs here on Soundclick for 75 cents a piece, or as a 7-song EP for a measley $2.99! "Blood Buckets 2010" is a freebie!!!
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Yes, indeed. Our live shows are never the same twice. We've set clowns on fire, faked arguments, and changed someone's grandmother's diaper on stage. You never know what'll happen from one show to the next.
Your musical influences
If Buckethead joined Rammstein after using a time machine to go see Mr. Bungle open for Frank Zappa, you might get close to what we sound like...
What equipment do you use?
I use Carvin guitars (2 2008 DC727s, a 1989 DC150, a 1987 Ultra V, a 1993 DC127, a 2004 SC90, and a 1998? T60), a custom-built Peters Pro Series 50w, an Engl Screamer 50, an Engl Fireball, an Engl e530 preamp into a Mesa Stereo 2:50, an Egnater Rebel 20, and Geezer custom cabinets. Prof uses Ibanez & ESP guitars and Mesa amplification.
Anything else?
New material soon. Define "soon"? Sorry, no can do. We found a fretless bass player who fits well with us, and found a drummer who has the same level of uniqueness and personality. We're writing for the next CD now...
