Artist description
"Jim never wears shoes when he drums. He also likes
to chew gum while he drums and he always makes
horrible orgasmic faces back behind his rototoms
there. Matt really likes digital delay pedals and
the blues scale.He has red hair and wears a size
7. Acorn never says that much and he's quite tall.
He was voted most likely to hurt another member of the
band. His bass has little acorns on the fretboard.
Neato!" - a fan |

Artist History
Antimony was formed in Jan. 1991 by Jim Frey, Matt
LaGoy and Jason 'Acorn' Bryan in Webster, NY out
of the demise of 'H2O' with Matt, Jim, and Mike
Freedman. Band promptly released
'Antimony!Antimony!' that August, showcasing their
high-energy 'semi-metal' sound. Antimony begins
gigging in and around Rochester, NY. Band released
'Motorsheep' in April '92 and followed with
Hurricane Andrew in Aug.'93. Each album departs
further from straight-ahead sound, but a small,
loyal following remains despite the band's musical
experimentation. Band splits for almost a year.
Reformed in June '94 to release live album,
'The Morning After'. Band split and went separate
ways: Jim to Boston; Matt to San Diego; Acorn to
Vancouver. Antimony reformed in 1999 in San
Francisco without Jim. Matt is now filling in for
the drums. Jim is still in Boston. |
