***Jerk With A Bomb is a two-piece band from Vancouver, BC, Canada. Their debut album, Death To False Metal, thankfully impressed more people than it confused, as it gathered a good dose of positive press, while actually having nothing to do with Metal, false or otherwise. Stylistically this is a songs-first duo, who have elements in their music that could be genre-lized into the camps of folk, country, rock, punk, experimental, jazz, and new wave, but to put it into focus, without using the sadly over used terms "honest" and "heartfelt", Jerk With a Bomb is the product of two unique and talented individuals, one in his thirties, the other his twenties. This second album proudly offers you what they do. Simple as that. There's only room for the two creators here, and besides, as the Skag states, "Trying to find a third member would make it seem like we were trying to sell-out to the people who can't seem to understand why we don't have a bass player-- which coincidentally, is no particular reason." - Jerk With A Bomb have toured the USA for 6 weeks straight once before, and a second circle for the summer of 2001 is in the works
- Another lifetime ago, One Easy Skag was a prominent member of some bands you may have heard of, such as Mission of Christ and Gus.
- The Silo is actually the current and always drummer of the popular combo Radio Berlin, who have well regarded releases on multiple continents
