LIMP Pop And Disorderly 1997
Artist Biography
by Linda Seida
Alternative pop/rock outfit Limp emerged from the
same region that spawned such bands as Neurosis, Fang, Econochrist, and
Rancid, building on the roots they planted in the San Francisco Bay Area
of California. Following the release in 1997 of Pop and Disorderly,
Limp's debut album, the group embarked on a yearlong tour to build up
its fan base and encourage support. The following year, the band put
together an EP, Fine Girl. The disc consisted of five tunes and was put
out by Fueled by Ramen. A second full-length release, Guitarded,
followed early in 1999 on the Honest Don's label. College radio soon
discovered Guitarded and contributed to its success with frequent
airplay. Limp followed up with an eponymous release from Fat Wreck. All
three of the group's albums employed producer Ryan Greene, who has
worked with such artists as Lagwagon, Cheap Trick, NOFX, and Nerf
Herder, among others. Limp has shared the stage with a list of bands
that includes Foo Fighters, NOFX, Blink-182, Unwritten Tour, and the
Offspring. The band has toured with Fueled by Ramen labelmate Less Than
Jake, as well as Lagwagon, the Donnas, Dance Hall Crashers, Bouncing
Souls, and Suicide Machines. Limp's members include drummer Johnny Cruz,
bass player Serge Verkhovsky, and guitarist and vocalist Phil Ensor.
