Chrome Kickers: Cleveland Fuckin' Ohio

Mike Duncan - Vocals
Raised by wild punks in Akron, Ohio in the early 80's. Began his punk rock life as the singer for a band called AGITATED! They lasted about a year or so and Mike decided to leave the wilds of Akron, though he loved it there. Move to the big city of Cleveland. There he encountered a great scene which included a group called the PLAGUE! Bob Sablack asked if he would make vocal noises for the PLAGUE, and he eagerly joined the band. They terrorized the Cleveland scene for many years, did a lot of recording and toured Germany. After a while (almost ten years) he just sort of lost interest.

Bob Sablak - Guitar
Bob started playing guitar at 14. He then joined his first real band at 19. Noteably he was in the Defnics from early 1980 to 1982 with Robert Conn (aka Bill DeGidio). He then started the Pink Holes with Bob Richey (aka Kurt Terd) but got kicked out. He considers this the best career move ever. Following the Holes, he started Plague in 1982,that went on for ten years. Although he didn't do shit in the 90s, Bob took the shot at a Defnics reunion show with his old buddy Bill in 2001. It was this show that slowly turned into the Chrome Kickers. But don't believe any of this, we all lie like rugs.

Joe Urusko - Bass
In the late 1980's Joe was met with a crossroads in his life, he had to decide between a career as an underwear model for JC Penny's catalog or a life of rock n roll. Despite an appreciation for fine cotton and hair care products, Joe decided to grab his 4 string electric twanger and lay down the rock. After playing in several hard rock and melodic hard core bands Joe hung up his Chuck Taylor's in the mid 90's not being able to bear the thought of wearing plaid and playing in a band with goat like vocals. Then in December of 2006 Joe got a call from former band member and chum Mike Sherwood to join the CHROME KICKERS and with Joe's fondness for loud noise, aggression and drunks, how could he say no!.

Mike Sherwood - Drums
Growing up in the burbs, Mike discovered very real discontent for jocks, cliques and the tired classic rock mentallity. He also discovered the need for the outlet provided by aggressive and non-typical music. Mike started playing drums in late 77. He played in dozens of easy to forget bands, until the late 80's when co-founding The Atomic Punks. Later he started Third Gear and then Reason Seven. He recruited Scott Stemple to join Reason Seven. Later by fate, and circumstance he got the gig in the Defnics reunion with Stemple. From there the foundation of the CHROME KICKERS was born!
