Artist History SPIDERS & SNAKES were formed in Hollywood in late 1990 from the remnants of ULTRA POP, LIZZIE GREY's post-LONDON project that had released back-to-back critically-acclaimed LPs (Five K's in KERRANG!) on the independent Ultimate Records label. Throughout the 1990's and on through the next millennium, SPIDERS & SNAKES have embraced a "we do what we feel" attitude to their music and stage shows, releasing no less than six albums, four singles and music videos and three North American tours to date. Currently, the band is on the import hard rock charts in Japan with their sixth and current album entitled "London Daze" (DEADLINE/CLEOPATRA).
