 THE MICE 

WHITEBELLY 
1999 CD HEADLESS RECORDS, HLR-003 

INDEPENDENT RECORDS 


"WHITEBELLY" WAS THE DEBUT  CD FROM SAN DIEGO PUNK TRIO THE MICE.  IT WAS RELEASED IN 1999 ON HEADLESS RECORDS.  AS STATED BEFORE, THE MICE USED TO BE A FOUR PIECE CALLED BILLYCLUB, BUT BECAME THE MICE WHEN THEIR VOCALIST LEFT THE BAND DUE TO PERSONAL ISSUES.  THE REMAINING MEMBERS CONTINUED ON AND RELEASED SEVERAL CDS OVER THE YEARS, AND ARE STILL SOMEWHAT ACTIVE TODAY, TWO DECADES LATER.  
ROB LOGIC AND TRAVIS POE SHARE LEAD AND BACKING VOCALS, WITH ROB PLAYING GUITAR AND TRAVIS PLAYING BASS, WHILE RAUL HANDLES THE DRUMMING DUTIES.  AT ONE POINT THE BAND AS A WHOLE WERE ALSO IN THE SAN DIEGO DRUNK PUNK BAND THE HOMELESS SEXUALS.  
ROB HAS ALSO PLAYED GUITAR FOR LIFE CRISIS AND DEATH CRISIS, AND HAS RECORDED COUNTLESS BANDS.  
THIS ALBUM IS CLASSIC SAN DIEGO PUNK ROCK FROM THE LATE 1990'S, CAPTURING THE ESSENCE OF THE LOCAL SCENE AT THE TIME.  TENOR SAXOPHONE WAS PERFORMED BY JOHN "HOOT" MCDONALD ON THE TRACKS "PORN" AND "PUDDIN' PIE."  "WHITEBELLY" WAS ENGINEERED BY BEN MOORE AT GOLDENTRACKS STUDIOS.  IT WAS MIXED AT BIG FISH, AND MASTERED BY BOB PANTAGES AT HIDEAWAY MASTERING.  RIPPED AT 320 KBPS.
