Biography 45 Grave
45 Grave, (also known as .45 Grave) formed in 1979, is an American
deathrock group. The band are also regarded by some as horror punk. The
original group broke up in 1985 but vocalist Dinah Cancer has revived the
band in recent times.
History The band was formed in Los Angeles, California during the punk
rock movement. The original lineup consisted of Dinah Cancer on vocals,
Paul Cutler on guitar, Rob Ritter (also known as Rob Graves) on bass, and
Don Bolles (of The Germs) on drums. The band evolved out of an industrial
music band called Vox Pop, who recorded two singles and played around the
Los Angeles area. Vox Pop contained all of the members of 45 Grave as well
as others, such as Jeff Dahl. Vox Pop continued to coexist with 45 Grave
until early 1981. The band's name, despite rumors to the contrary, was
lifted from a button.
In 1980, 45 Grave recorded their first song included on the LAFMS (Los
Angeles Free Music Society) punk roc
