PROUDFLESH BIOGRAPHY

PROUDFLESH
was founded by former CRUCIFIX vocalist Sothira and brought to life in the studio by former CRUCIFIX guitarist Jimmy Crucifix.  With the help of Drummer "Tony Short" from the band Bomb. PROUDFLESH released the1988 debut EP "Powerbroker" on WGR records with producer Mark Senesac (Exodus). PROUDFLESH played the local clubs that following year with a different line up from the studio line up. Sothira then recruited Drummer "Mario Pietrygo" a long time Crucifix fan & former drummer of Upright Citizens from Germany.  Jimmy Crucifix joined the band again in the early 90's and performed with Proudflesh until its end in 1992. Sothira continued to race motorcycles and work for Rough Trade Records. Jimmy remained in the music scene operating a local music studio (Lennon Studios) and playing in a variety of Bands. (see the Jimmy Crucifix Web Page for details) During a recording session in 2002 at Jimmys Private studio in San Francisco, Sothira and Jimmy decided to reform PROUDFLESH. The band played a few well recieved local shows with the help of The Lewd's drummer Rick Lewd, but due to conflicts and problems within the band Jimmy Crucifix removed himself once again from Proudflesh and continued to play and tour with The RESISTOLEROS and FANG. (See Jimmy Crucifix's Home Page for links to these Bands) PROUDFLESH has yet again another new line up including Jimmy Crucifix and continues to Play & Tour
around the world. The Band Toured Japan in March of 2007 and Toured Germany & Holand in Nov 2007.
