Band history

Dan had been playing in a band called "The Ramers" that made two CD`s and had just one concert...

He was not happy with the style. Midyear `98 they split.

Ciggy and Snake was living in Oslo together in '98. They dreamed of starting a punk band to get rid of frustration and to express their hate towards society. The choice to start a band with Dan was obvious, since they had been friends since forever. The band was called Seff.
Seff had 1 big concert, and made the material for one CD, but it never became published. Roy had to choose between the band and the military. He chose the latter, and so he was out. 1st of July 2000 Andy DeVille brought his devil horned head and devilish fast limbs to the band.
Algo had been trying out several drummers after Snake quit the band, but Andy was the only one who managed to impress the the guys in Algo. Loco joined the band in early 2002. After posing as a band member for months, they finally let him have a go at it. But Loco began his lawyer studies in Oslo, and it proved difficult to combine with weekend jobs AND Algo, so regretfully he had to quit.
We tried out a friend from Morphia called Assbear on stage, and we grew to like this curly dude, and so we made the choice in August `05 to have both him and our session organist "The Slut" as permanent members. So here we are :)
