Mindfunk (2)

Formed in the late 80's or early 90's with Louis Svitek (guitar), Jason Coppola (guitar), Reed St. Mark (drums), John Monte (bass) and Pat Dubar (vocals). Originally named "Mind Fuck", but were forced by Sony to change their name to a more inoffensive one. By 1992, original guitar-player Jason Coppola and drummer Reed St. Mark had been replaced by Jason Everman and Shawn Johnson respectively. It was also during this period that the band changed their name from Mind Funk to Mindfunk, from two words to one. By the end of 1994, after the leaving of John Monte and Jason Everman, the band continued as a four-piece, with temporary bassists Frank Ciampi and Spike Xavier. They split up in 1995, after the recording of their third album, "People Who Fell From The Sky".
