Circus Lupus was formed by former Ignition bassist Chris Thomson while he in school in Madison, Wisconsin. This was Chris' firsttime singing
and not only did it turn out that he was a solid lyricist, but the music that the band created seemed a perfectsetting for his pointed diatribes.
The original lineup released a 7" on Cubist Records (a label out of Pittsburgh), but the bassplayer left the band when they decided to relocate to

Circus Lupus released two albums on Dischord, "Super Genius" (1992) and "Solid Brass" (1993) as well as a single produced byJoan Jett, who
had become a fan of the band. This was one of Jett’s first production jobs since she went into the studio withThe Germs in 1979.
When Circus Lupus split up, Casebolt, Lorinczi, and Hamley stayed together and played under the name Antimony, whileThomson formed a new
band with ex-Fidelity Jones members Dug E. Bird and Jerry Busher called Las Mordidas. A few yearslater, Hamley and Thomson would reunite in
a band called The Monorchid. - See more at:http://www.dischord.com/band/circus-lupus#sthash.JCFNLLK2.dpuf « hide |
