March 3, 1995 - 2025: 30 years of: Snappin' Necks.

Snap !
Inside America's fear factory, while the machine heads were spinning far beyond driven, an Atlanta unit was about to raise the body count. NYHC elements with razor-sharp Bay-Area guitar-tone, all voiced by a southern hiphop MC. This is the declaration of the headhuntin' STUCK MOJO.

Crunch !
Newmetal with a groove, as "Not Promised Tomorrow" and "F.O.D." hustles their way into the pit. The title-track for "Snappin' Necks" cracks vertebra on cue, while "2 Minutes Of Death" squeezes more adrenaline into the brawl. Extra-crunch is facewashed on "Cake" and "The Beginning Of The End". This post-Seattle scene is finally fully violated.

Mosh !
STUCK MOJO are a perfect example of shattered rock-boundaries, uniting the most volatile genres of hard-shit, all under one roof. ANTHRAX sat the pace and now the MOJOs are assaulting the mid 90s. Their lethal mix shall be back on 1996's Pigwalk CD.

October 23, 1996 - 2026: 30 years of: Pigwalk.

A total demanufacture.

Following the war-dance of 1995's Snappin' Necks CD, another sucker-punch would arise. Always livin' on the edge, the scene gets hardcored by STUCK MOJO.

The rage is imminent, a brutal bitch-slap, as "Pigwalk" and "Mental Melt Down" hammers the crowd down. Frontman Bonz battles in the pit, as the front-row metal of "Twisted" riff-raffs into oblivion, simultaneously a new level of confidence is reached on "(Here Comes) The Monster".

More brutal punches fly high on "Despise" as the march of the MOJO kicks nümetal to the curb with "Only The Strong Survive". A heavy payload is droped on "Violated" while the serious hiphop / metal pummeling of "Down Breeding" becomes the soul of a new machine.

Ten ton like.

Co-produced by Daniel Bergstrand and Devin Townsend, so you know STUCK MOJO's tone shall be crisp and relentless. Never idle, our lovely southern born killers shall hit back with 1998's pile-driving Rising CD.

Get in the ring, time to snap some necks !

The United States in 1997-98: the lame alt post-grunge era and the teen mall-punk invasion ...STUCK MOJO wanted none of this weak shit. After 1996's Pigwalk CD, this forthcoming explosion showcase more metal, more balls and more grit ...all of this before SYSTEM OF A DOWN's debut.

Jump around, "Crooked Figurehead" is pure nitroglycerin, high-stamina modern-streetmetal. The following "Trick" doesn't let go, not even for a single-second ...this is the rawest of S.O.D. riffing with RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE revolutionary vocals: the recipe for war. Behold the "Assassination Of A Pop Star" an exhibition of power in this Glock-crazy America while the gathering of "Enemy Territory" and the crude "Throw The Switch" are the best tracks PANTERA never wrote ...yes they're that good.

Remember the raw 1998 WWF -vs- WCW war for ratings ? Well an unannounced wildcard was put on the bill with this now iconic accompanying video. DDP, Raven and his Flock ...with motherfuckin' STUCK MOJO in the same squared-circle. Wrestling + Metal = Rising, in one of the coolest video ever: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0NpeWe5sGk

The 1999 live-release HVY1 is one of the era's most flammable concert. Tone and torque, step aside Family Values, the Rising-tour was the event to witness in a sweaty mosh-pit. STUCK MOJO are America's much needed hybrid trendsetters of the mid-decade.

Nümetal was dominated by you know who, but in all honesty, nothing against KORN and LIMP BIZKIT, but it's a miss-match. A message to the Press: if you're going to coin the term "Rap-Metal" please have the expertise to label bands that include actual genuine "METAL" elements.

Filled with shenanigans, there goes the neighborhood again on 2000's Declaration Of A Headhunter CD.
