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.
