Jungle Mungus were a trilogy ov story tellers from a place in time but have now disbanded into the void of existence that is life. Parting ways back in late 2005 these boys were at the point that makes or breaks a band, and sadly they broke. right upon the eve of there first heat for the RDU band comp.( They had it I tells ya.)
History
Any how they formed three years earlier in a room on Worcester st at a flat were there was much enthusiastic drinkin and life living. I wont drop names butt they all came from different backgrounds. 1 from the South, 2 from the north. MAGIC.
Trivia
There were three sets over the years. The original set version 0.1 starting with "Too Welcome" & "Disection" a retarded balled about a crazy guy who dismembered his member, also featuring the fantastic "What" & "Petes a pizza brain". Then came the greatest hits such as E is for Egg & T.H.I.S (This hit is shit) which lead to a third set, with good old "Refurtoe Bopius" and the crooning joy of "Seven men" & "Toothless ache". Before the boys disbanded the fourth set was in production starting with "Zombies it is" & "Mylester the Clown" ( A song about a clown who kept gettin melested by children and it drove him mad.) These last 2 songs only ever being heard by one other person.
There once was a party at "The house of Mungus" that featured "Cripple Mr Onion" and "Maestro Cooltones and the Phantasmacies" that was a mad house. The floor was shaking there were people swingin/hanging from the roof and general disarray and disorder contributing to a house of nonsense. Good times!
There first gig was at one of the historic Atigua party's in ChCH.
Members
A tall dreaded guy played Guitar and sang (alot, & quite awful sometimes too.)
Another dreaded guy played Bass and sang sometimes. (Butt layed the brutal roar down when it had to be done!)
And yet another dreaded chap played Drums and sang for one song. (in a style much his own!)
