Nunfuckers Biography

The Nunfucker formed in July of 1985 in Waterloo, Ontario. The first practice was in Bob's garage - Bob on drums, Dave on guitar, Ian on vocals and Todd on guitar. Practice went for a couple of hours. When Todd got bored and left, Ian, Bob and Dave wrote and recorded the "Today is a Good Day" demo (on a tape recorder). At least one song on the demo had lyrics about actually fucking nuns.

Ian's dad was transferred to Calgary the following month and Ian left the band. Derek joined as bassist in the fall of 1985, followed by Rob on vocals. The Nunfuckers played house parties around Waterloo before playing their first show at Chuggy's in Hamilton (now Hogtown) opening for the Resistance from Vancouver.

A few months later, Nunfuckers recorded the "Into the Pit" demo at CKMS in Waterloo. Copies of the demo were made on low-end blank tapes stolen from CKMS while recording. One copy was given to members of Bunchoffuckinggoofs while at the White House (punk home/hangout in Waterloo). Shortly after that, BFG invited the NUNFUCKERS to open for them at Lee's Palace in Toronto. The place was packed and both bands were well received.

The NUNFUCKERS played a lot after that, in and out of Waterloo, with bands like DOG, MSI, SONS OF ISHMAEL, NO MIND and the DOUGHBOYS (including a show with NO MIND in a Chinese restaurant in Kitchener). In 1987, the band returned to CKMS to record the "Dead and on the Floor" EP - 11 songs recorded live-to-stereo in 2 hours for $30. 1,000 copies were pressed at World Records in Bowmanville, Ontario. The EP got a good review in MAXIMUMROCK'N'ROLL #49 and sold out in 5 months by mail order, mostly to Germany.
In the summer of 1987, Brian Taylor from YYY/The Record Pedlar asked the NUNFUCKERS to open for DRI at Ildikos in Toronto. At the show, Rob gave a copy of "Dead and on the Floor" to Kurt, and Kurt gave Rob a DRI pin.

Shortly after that, Dave left the band to herd sheep in New Zealand, and Jeremy joined as rhythm guitarist. Arguably the best NUNFUCKERS performance happened shortly after that in September of 1987, when the band and PROBLEM CHILDREN opened for SNFU at Ildikos in Toronto. They played the never-released song Rock God at that show, written in reference to the time Kurt from DRI gave Rob a pin in exchange for a copy of the "Dead and on the Floor" EP.

The NUNFUCKERS disbanded after playing terribly at the University of Guelph in early 1988 with NO MIND and a band called TWO-FISTED LAW from Waterloo.

Band members: Dave Cherry, Rob Purdie, Todd Gillies, Bob Davies (4), Derek Henderson (3)

Label - Not On Label (Nunfuckers Self-released)

WEBSITE

This is for releases which don't have a label:
Items such as self-released albums, limited edition tour merchandise, white labels, bootlegs, etc.
=================================================
**********THIS IS NOT A REAL LABEL NAME!***********
=================================================

Please do not mark Not On Label to be the parent label of any "sublabels" (e.g. "Not On Label (ArtistName)").

RSG §4.4.1. Releases which have no discernible label, such as self-released albums, limited edition tour merchandise, white labels, bootlegs, etc. should be listed under the "Not On Label" meta-label. This is done by typing "Not On Label" into the Label field. Before using Not On Label, please check for any catalog number or other markings that could associate a release with a particular label, or labels. Often, white label records can be tied back to a label by the catalog numbers found in the run-out grooves, and some CDs with limited information present might include a label logo, if no catalog number is clearly present.

RSG §4.4.2. Not On Label pseudo-labels have been created to gather a distinct release or set of releases without labels. The most common groupings are based on similar content and catalog numbers, and by artist:

Not On Label (ArtistName) -- for unofficial releases containing music by a certain artist.
Not On Label (ArtistName Self-released) -- for music released specifically by an artist, as found on tours and made available via personal websites.

RSG §4.4.3. Artists that use the definite article "The ArtistName" should be listed as "Not On Label (The Artistname)", e.g. the group "The Police" follows the correct labeling rule for all labels, "Not On Label (The Police Self-released)".
