Working together face-to-face and also by Internet has resulted in their third release "Mental Implants", due for release on July 4th 2020 on the Neighborhood Records NYC label ( www.NeighborhoodRecords.NYC )

The band still features Singer/Guitarist Mike G, AKA Mike the Spike from Oingo Boingo Former Members, Bassist Bill Lanham of Joe Walsh and The Bellrays, and Tom Dante, master drummer for Guitar Shorty and David Pack. They’ve known each other for years and decided to get pissed off on record rather than on the highways of So Cal.

Families, beaches, rock and roll, encroachment, gentrification, impoliteness and various other time-consuming entities drive the stories and frustration related in the songs. Being sequestered for part of this record brought everyone up to the next level: This was the first effort where all three bandmembers were involved and credited in the writing, production and performance of Mental Implants.

Each was able to express their failures and successes through this recording process. All this is not unlike a haggis; life gets stuffed into the pipe all at once, and it has parts you wouldn’t really like on their own, but when mixed with an equal part of good stuff, you get a balance that can make you stronger, and wiser, and you find out where your specific tastes lie. Get yer Haggis! You’re only human!
