Artist History the band started with mike and his cousin rob (a drummer). they decided to call it 'the flaming squirrels' so they could call thier first album 'burn your nuts' because rob was a metalhead and thought that was funny. troy joined the band as a vocalist within a few days and they did songs like 'torn' which were packed with pretentious lyrics and they sounded like a very bad imitation of queensryche. then troy became a guitarist and the band become mostly punk rock. then rob left the band and it was just mike and troy and it became emo-grunge-acoustic rock. the band broke up and then years later reformed as an open mic novelty for troy and mike. then tom joined the band. this lasted for about a year and that was by far the best and most productive time. now the band is dead as we are all working on other projects. these are recordings from live shows and new recordings troy made to preserve the memory of the band.
