In tribute to their favorite candy that comes out of a little plastic head, Marv Stockwell (guitar/vocals) Ceylon Mooney (guitar/vocals), Scott (ba**ist), and Nick (drums) got together to form Pezz in 1989. Taking their home of Memphis, TN, by surprise, the band released their first EP, Jalopy, in 1992 followed by Free Ride the next year; both on Truant Records, both inspired by the likes of Jawbreaker, Husker Du, and Articles of Faith. After Roy was recruited to fulfill the ba** position in 1995, Pezz's first full length, Living the Life of Riley, came out that same year followed by a brief tour of the East Coast. Joey Mullinix soon took over the four strings the next year before they recorded the split CD with 2 Line Filler on Bittersweet Records. With the lineup finally settled in 1997, courtesy of drummer Chris Coble, BYO Records hooked them up to release their second album, One Last Look, that same year. Their third album, Warmth & Sincerity, followed also on BYO in 1999. ~ Mike DaRonco, All Music Guide
