Artist History Taking influnces from various genres and sub genres of metal, and mixing it with a heavy backbone of Misfits / Ramones style punk rock, Mr.Stoops create a sound all their own. Consisting of Nick McNally ( guitar and vocals ), John Morrison ( bass ) and Matt Norquist ( drums ), Mr.Stoops have been busy playing shows and planning a summer tour in support of their upcoming debut album which is due out mid May, 2002.The band actually already has one release under their belts in the form of the now infamous " Mr. Stoops rough demo". It was more or less a practice session that was open air recorded and sold for 3 and 5 dollars. The 20 copies that were made sold rather quickly, and the demo was actually reviewed and praised by the online magazine Rock Hard Horror.com.Hailing from Mt. Ephraim, NJ , Mr.Stoops came together early 2002, and quickly wrote 13 songs, with lyrics ranging from depression, loss, regret and angst, to songs filled with hope, determination, and most prominently, perseverance. The band practices every single day from between 4 and 7 hours, honing their unmistakable sound. It would be a near impossible task to find 3 people more hard working and serious about the music they create.To take a line from the demo review, "While most bands spend years defining sound and paying dues, Mr Stoops is ready!"
