Biography

The Martinets formed in New York in the mid-'90s, with a lineup consisting of Eammon Bowles (guitar, vocals), guitarist Dave Rick (formerly with Yo La Tengo), Roger Murdock (drums, vocals), and the renowned Ramones producer Daniel Rey (guitar). Offering furious themes of punk rock, essentially inspired by bands like the New York Dolls and the Heartbreakers, they led crews of the punk movement during the late '70s. Love!Hate!, the group's debut album, hit record stores in February of 2000, enjoying reasonable results and attaining significant reviews from the media. Two years later, the New York squad recorded what turned out to be their second major recording, Your Avid Output, again through the Scooch Pooch record label. ~ Mario Mesquita Borges, All Music Guide
