FORGED IN THE ANTHRACITE COAL-REGION OF NEPA BY VII JADE & ISRAEL (IZZY) SKY WHALEN, THE BAND RELEASED IT'S 1ST EP AS A DUO IN 2011 UNDER THE NAME "PRETTY MOUTH". IN THE BEGINNING OF 2012, EDUARDO ARTILLES, ALONG WITH ADAM LAZAR & JERRY DUBBZ WOULD JOIN THE BAND AS IZZY LEFT AS WE HEADED IN A HEAVIER DIRECTION THAN HE WANTED TO BE INVOLVED WITH. THUS, ED TOOK OVER THE ROLE OF BASS/CO-VOCALIST. IZZY WOULD PRODUCE/MASTER THE 2ND EP RECORDED SHORTLY AFTER THEN THE BAND FELL APART DUE TO VII'S MENTAL INSTABILITIES.
CRAWLING OUT OF THE UNDERBELLY OF NORTHEAST PHILLY, THE BAND WOULD REFORM WITH A NEW LINEUP - ASH HICKS (EUSTACE PUS) ON BASS & MATT "OHIO" WALLENSTEIN (SMEGMA JONES) ON DRUMS. TOGETHER, THEY RECORDED THE BAND'S 1ST FULL LENGTH ALBUM "EJACULATE" IN 2014. THEY PLAYED MANY SHOWS THROUGHOUT PA BUT FAILED TO GAIN TRACTION BC MOST BANDS THEY PLAYED BESIDE WERE MUCH SOFTER/TECHNICAL. THEY WOULD PLAY THEIR FINAL SHOWS IN 2016 RIGHT AROUND THE TIME THAT CO-FOUNDING MEMBERS IZZY & EDUARDO PASSED AWAY SUDDENLY.
THIS LOSS INSPIRED VII TO START WORKING ON A NEW EP TO PAY TRIBUTE/HOMAGE TO HER FALLEN BROTHERS IN CRIME & WOULD NOT SEE COMPLETION UNTIL 2021. IN JANUARY OF THAT YEAR, AFTER VII HAD MOVED TO NASHVILLE SHE DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO REFORM THE BAND AS A SOLO PROJECT & RELEASE THE NEWLY FINISHED EP ENTITLED "YEAH, WHATEVER" WHICH WILL BE AVAILABLE THIS APRIL!
