The band's name was derived from descriptive terminology used to depict a motorcyclist, crashing and skidding along an asphalt concrete road at high speed.[3] The band consists of vocalist Gary Jeffries, bassist Terry Phillips, drummer Mikki Kiner, and guitarists Danny Clarke and Julius J. Ulrich,[1][2] although by 2019 the status of the band is unknown. Jeffries fronts the Gary Jeffries Band. When was asked about a reunion with his former bandmates and said, "I wouldn't be opposed to it, but man, I haven't talked to them guys in about 20 years, their MySpace is no longer available."^{[citation needed]}

History

Virgin Records signed the band and released their self-titled debut album in 1991.[1] Jeffries left due to pressure from the label to change their style to sound more like grunge.[2] Their second album, Pigs, was released in 1993,[3] with Tommy Dean on lead vocals.[1] The band split up shortly after the release of Pigs.[1]

Information about recording new material may be on the band's MySpace web page, but the most recent was reportedly in February 2011.[4]
