THEE FOURGIVEN was formed out of the ashes of the Unclaimed. I wanted to do more of my songs, which were still very 60's influenced, but had a more hi-energy, 60's MC5 tinge to it rather than a Count V influence! The band started with Ray Flores (bass/vocals) & Matt Roberts (drums,garbage can,screams), both also from the Unclaimed. This line-up played around for about a year, recorded a couple compilations tracks and did an album called IT AIN'T PRETTY DOWN HERE on Dionysus Records. Matt left the country for "a couple of weeks" and didn't return for several years, so we brought in Ray's skater buddy, Bela Horvath. With Bela, we toured Europe twice, once with the awesome Miracle Workers and once with the latest (and last!) version of the Unclaimed (last because singer Shelley quit the band a week into the tour!). We also put out more comp cuts, a 45 and 2 more LPs before adding Mojo Jones on second guitar for several months before breaking up in early 1989.
