This is a kick ass - in your face - stay the hell out of my way type song. Or else!!!
Formed in 1991 as an outlet to take out their frustrations with everyday life, Mundaze Suck grew into a whole lot more. The founding members were Walt on lead guitar/bass and lead vocals, Mike on rhythm guitar, and Pat on drums. When they first started there wasn't a bass player. Walt played bass parts to many songs using his guitar processor (we think this is where the White Stripes got the idea). Eventually the band tried out several bass players, but none quite fit their style. After deciding if you wanted something done right you've got to do it yourself, Walt bought a bass and took on the task of holding down the bottom end full time. This opened up the lead guitar spot that was quickly filled by Walt's cousin Chris.
More changes to the line-up happened in 2007. Mike and Pat started a covers only band called Driven Under. Walt recruited Joe to play drums and Tony for lead vocals. Chris came back to the line-up after a short vacation from the band and the line-up was complete once again. Chris still plays bass in a Cincy band named Loose Threads.
Update: Early 2008 finds Walt and Pat looking for the right people to put this band in front of the people where we are destined to be. Stay tuned....Band/artist history
Mundaze Suck started in the early 90's by Walt playing guitar plus holding down vocal duties and Pat on drums. Mike joined on rhythm guitar and Walt started working on his lead guitar playing. Homer was then added on bass. Mundaze Suck went to Backstage Studio in Covington, KY to record a couple of their originals to enter in a WEBN Battle of the Bands contest. The songs were W/O U and Home (Unsweet Home), both of which can be heard in our music section. This line-up stayed together for a while.
Near the end of the 90's Homer was replaced by Roger (aka "the scumbag") on bass and Dale joined as the lead singer. Mundaze Suck's first live party (Halloween) was played with this line-up. Shortly after the Halloween party, the band split up for a while.
A few years later the band was reassembled with a new line-up. Walt switched to playing bass and back to lead vocals. Mike and Pat kept their previous positions and the lead guitar position was filled by Walt's very talented cousin, Chris. Everyone had used the time off to become better musicians. It is with this current line-up that the streak of parties had started. Family, holiday, field, graduation, keg, and bar mitzvah parties, you name it, we'll play it.
We started working on recording some between 2005 - 2006 and plan on recording enough of our originals to make a whole cd sometime in 2007. We will post songs on this website as we get them recorded. The songs recorded in 2005 were Dain Bramage, Girl's Gone Mental, and Blow Up. The production is a little rough on these songs because we were just learning how to do the home recording thing. We plan on re-recording all our songs with the current band line-up because the songs just seem to rock more these days.
More changes to the line-up happened in 2007. Mike and Pat started a covers only band called Driven Under. Walt recruited Joe to play drums and Tony for lead vocals.

New line-up coming soon......Have you performed in front of an audience?We play live at parties. We're looking to start playing in bars/clubs in the fall of 2007. We love having people get into our originals.

Yep, you read it correctly. The band has undergone some personnel changes. Mundaze Suck is now Walt on Bass, Joe on Drums, Chris on Guitar, and Tony on Lead Vocals. We will be playing out very soon so keep checking back for updates.
Good luck to Mike and Pat in their pursuit of playing cover songs. Rick has joined up with them on bass to become Driven Under.

Great Punk Rock Show at the Mad Hatter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Walt, Pat and Chris saw a really cool show on Feb. 1st at the Mad Hatter in Covington, Ky. The show had the legendary Dwarves (http://www.thedwarves.com/) with The Turbo A.C.s (http://www.turboacs.com/), Angels of Meth (http://www.myspace.com/angelsofmeth), and Death In Graceland (http://www.deathingraceland.com/).
Unfortunately we missed Death in Graceland which is a popular local band. We were lucky enough though to catch the other local band, Angels of Meth, who really kicked butt and took names. They are kind of a bluesy metal style that was just relentless. I highly recommend seeing these guys if you get a chance.
The two national acts were good old fashioned old school punk bands. Both delivered high power performances. The Dwarves were the most interesting with their lead guitarist (He Who Has No Name) playing the whole show wearing nothing more than a mexican wrestling mask, thong and guitar. Thankfully
Cool show coming to Bogarts on Feb. 7th.
Avenged Sevenfold with CKY and a band called the Confession. I would highly recomend seeing this show just for A7X. They were really good at the 2005 Warped Tour at Riverbend Music Center.
Rock on!!!!!!
Saw a really good show last night at the Southgate House in Newport, Ky. Kill City opening for Electric Frankenstein. If you ever get a chance to see KC live you should definitely check them out. They are good down and dirty rock 'n roll reminiscent of the Stooges.
It was my first time to see EF, but they didn't quite live up to my expectations. The guitars where just too overbearing live. I expected a better production from them. It was hard to hear the vocals and bass, but they definitely still had the energy that is on their cds.
Dead Flowers, the band that played before KC were pretty good too. Their guitar player was pretty damn impressive. They have a female lead singer that could really sing and also could hold her own in the mosh pit.
Overall it was an enjoyable night.
