Morticia Morgue existed briefly from 1982-83 having formed around the time The Sickness (Big Daddy, Larry Lifeless) split up and The Groinoids (Big Daddy, Cheez, Mongoloid, Rico Petroleum) was being dissolved. Basically, Cheez and Mongoloid formed Morticia Morgue and Rico Petroleum and Larry Lifeless formed Kilslug. Big Daddy soon followed joining both Morticia Morgue on drums (replacing original drummer Sluggo) and Kilslug on bass. Morticia Morgue only played 2 or 3 gigs and did one rough demo recording on cassette 4 track, convincing their friend Billy Gallagher, who'd never been in a band before or has since, to do vocals. Larry Kelley also played guitar briefly. After Kilslug had some line-up changes with Big Daddy moving from bass onto drums, Cheez and Mongoloid also joined on bass and guitar respectively to combine the two bands and form what became the classic album line-up of Kilslug (Larry Lifeless, Rico Petroleum, Mongoloid, Cheez, Big Daddy) with most of Morticia Morgue's material also becoming Kilslug tracks.
