Formed in 1992 from the remnants of their high school metal band, the members of Monster Soup strategically decided to shift gears in the midst of the grunge uprising. The addition of former members of the Bayou Pigs and December’s Child would usher in a full music and image re-brand. Drawing on influences from the 1970s such as disco, truckers, Trans Ams, pimps, adult movies, Bay City Rollers, Slade, Burt Reynolds, Charlie’s Angels, Evel Knievel and Saturday morning cartoons. Monster Soup would re-emerge as a mashup of sex positive innuendo and pop culture that playfully struts between punk and metal, often dubbed as “Sex Rock“.
Monster Soup quickly established themselves as scene leaders, becoming one of the most popular live acts in the crowded Texas underground music scene by the mid 1990s. With a constant draw and exciting show themes like “PJ Party Xmas” and “You Ain’t Punk” (still happening to this day), the band’s stage antics and music gained them notoriety throughout the American Southwest and all the way to Mexico City.
At present, the band isn’t letting its geography get in the way of doing its part to keep rock music alive and well. With band members strewn across Texas, California and Nevada, the Soup Troop is still laying it down loud and hard with a busy schedule of live performances and new music releases.
