MONSTER ZERO formed in Long Beach, CA 1996 by Brothers LORDMERCILESS and SPAZ who just so happen to be the offspring of bassist/song writer Steven Leonard from the legendary So. CA surf group THE PYRAMIDS who was responsible for their classic hit instrumental "PENETRATION" and created the reverb/surf sound that so many other groups continue to imitate this very day. MONSTER ZERO released the 3 song 7"inch EP "Listen to...Sounds of Psycho Surf" and began playing shows all over Southern CA. regularly opening for groups such as THE TORNADOES, DICK DALE, THE VENTURES, and The TIKI TONES, just to name a few. They were also included on a surf compiliation CD put together by the Hunnington Beach Surf Museum to represent the historical landmark. In 1997, MONSTER ZERO relocated to the place that they were raised Las Vegas, NV. This is when INVISO became the new bass guitar player and still remains to be. It took no time at all for Sin City to embrace the band and was being asked to play with touring acts like SATANS PILGRIMS, THE BOMBORAS, THE INVISIBLE MEN, THE GHASTLY ONES, TIGER ARMY, THE BLACK HALOS, AGENT ORANGE, and more. During this time the group recorded 3 demos and would still perform live as a 3 piece each time a guitar player would quit and until another could be found. In 2000, the group released "The Making of a Monster" CD and also was included on the compilation CD "A Christmas in Las Vegas" performing the classic x-mas favorite "You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch" In 2001 the group was put on hold because of "the making of monsters" by members of the group for reals! Halloween 2007, six and a half years later, MONSTER ZERO would rise from the grave and begin performing live once again. DR. PHOBIC joined the group in 2008 and once agian the band is creating a buzz in the Las Vegas local music scene. MONSTER ZERO will release a new CD in the summer of 2009 titled "Sunday School Singalongs" that will feature all new material.
