The Gories

Trashy bass-less Detroit garage punk band formed in 1986 by Mick Collins [vocals, guitar] (currently of The Dirtbombs fame), Margaret Ann O'Neill [drums], and Dan Kroha [vocals, guitar] (now with the Demolition Doll Rods). The band released 3 LPs and several 7 inch singles. They disbanded in 1993 and their blues influences have been identified as an important influence on several garage rock bands, such as The White Stripes. Collins went on to form Blacktop and, as aforementioned, The Dirtbombs. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
