About Bunnydrums
Born out of two fairly prominent bands in Philadelphia's late-'70s punk scene (the Boneheads and the Autistics), Bunnydrums would make a name for themselves for a short time as a sci-fi/angular/psychedelic/punk band that would open up for such big names as Pere Ubu, R.E.M., and Gang of Four. David Goerk (vocals), Frank Marr (guitars), Greg Davis (bass), and drummer Joe Ankenbrand first performed in 1980 and a year later released their first EP, Feathers Web, under their own power. They would eventually sign with Red Records, who would release their full-length debut (a combination of their first EP and extra tracks), PKD, in 1983. Not hell-bent on touring, Bunnydrums focused their energies on their home scene and development of a Philly-based society of musicians and artists called the Funk Dungeon. Their next full-length, Holy Moly, was accompanied with touring, given pressure from the record company, but inner strife was brewing. After an aborted European tour and member changes, the band split in 1986, only to appear again at benefit shows. In 2003, the band once saw the light of day again -- albeit in reissue format -- when Metropolis Records issued the collection PKD/Simulacra. ~ Chris True
