90s Rap Metal Heroes Stuck Mojo Reunite For Atlanta Show


stuckmojoreunionposter

 

Last week at Atlanta’s storied Masquerade Theater, the classic 90s lineup of Stuck Mojo reunited for one night. Consisting of Rich “The Duke” Ward on guitar, Bonz on vocals, Corey Lowery on bass and Frank Fontsere on drums, Stuck Mojo was an innovative and ground breaking band that was a peer to acts such as Korn, Deftones and Rage Against The Machine, but also had elements of thrash, grooves and guitar solos that allowed them to tour with Pantera, Machine Head, and local brethren Sevendust.

For the first time since 1998 Rich, Bonz, Corey and Frank were on been on stage together, laying down thunderous grooves, lyrics rife with political dissent, and playing all of their hits from albums like Snapping Necks, Pigwalk and Rising (all for Century Media), with Rising going on to sell an almost unheard of 3 million copies in the mid-nineties. Hopefully the interest for these standard bearers for power-groove and Nu-Metal will rise as well, and we will see more shows in the future.

Check out these fan filmed videos of the show:
