Almost immediately after the legendary punk/hardcore band
Black Flag called it quits in
1987, lead singer
Henry Rollins issued his first solo releases,
Hot Animal Machine and
Drive By Shootings (the latter an EP credited to Henrieta
Collins and the Wifebeating Childhaters), featuring longtime friend
Chris Haskett on guitar, bassist
Bernie Wandel, and drummer
Mick Green. But Rollins missed being part of a true band, hence the formation of the
Rollins Band.
Similar in style to the
Flag's latter direction (Sabbath-esque riff-heavy hardcore metal), the Rollins Band enlisted ex-Gone members
Sim Cain (drums) and
Andrew Weiss (bass), while Haskett remained onboard. The group quickly made a name for themselves with their explosive concerts and nonstop touring, as soundman
Theo Van
Rock signed on as well (Rock's contributions were so great that he was often credited as a fifth member of the band).
Bohemia Afterdark is a channel for music lovers that remember the alternative, grunge and hip hop music from the late 80’s and early 90’s.
