Ultimate Spinach was one of the most well known, and perhaps the most notorious, of the groups to be hyped as part of the “Bosstown Sound” in 1968 The name itself guaranteed attention, as one of the most ludicrous and heavy-handed “far out” monikers of the psychedelic era, even outdoing formidable competition such as the Peanut Butter Conspiracy

Ultra Bra has definitely been one of the most important bands in Finland Their stylish crossover between pop and rock music touched people from both popular and underground music audience, so it’s no wonder that they sold more albums than any other rock artist in the ’90s
Brought up in Harrisonburg, VA, basements (though the bandmembers originally hailed from various cities in Virginia) and later based out of Richmond, Ultra Dolphins became known early on for their chaotic live show, which may or may not have included pyrotechnics, nudity, and stir-frying at one point or another

After putting in time with countless other bands, Andy Strickland (guitar/vocals), Scott Stearns (guitar), Mike Faucher (bass), and Corey Bing (drums) came together as Ohio’s Ultralord in 2005, shamelessly combining their love of metal, punk, blues, doom, grind, thrash, and black metal into the same year’s Act 1 EP, and later, 2006’s We Hate You and Hope You Die LP, released by This Dark Reign Records
