Chris Ulsh (Mammoth Grinder)
SPB: What is the weirdest description you’ve heard of your music? Do you think it’s accurate in any way or can you see where it came from?
Ulsh: In the earliest years of our band we played a show in downtown Dallas. I don't remember who the show was with, most likely for the best. The band after us had just played a song when they said, "I wanna thank Mammoth Grinder, awesome skate thrash from Austin." My brain completed a series of backflips before I realized this guy had seen us skating before the show while we were trying to kill time in Deep Ellum. Three 6 foot tall ogres cruising around a parking lot, born to do anything but skate and not landing a single trick. Still not sure who the bigger poser was that night.
