Biography

Acoustic punk band This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb formed in Pensacola, Florida in the mid-'90s, fusing influences from the 1960s folk protest movement (most notably the unflinching political themes of artists like Phil Ochs and Joan Baez) and the DIY aesthetic of punk. The core of the group is singer, guitarist and primary songwriter Rymodee and bassist Terry Johnson. A variety of drummers, including folk-punk stalwart David Dondero and Aaron Elliott, publisher of the noted punk zine Cometbus, have completed the trio both on stage and in the studio, though Ted Helmick has been the most consistent presence on the drum throne. This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb debuted with a self-titled 7" EP in 1997, followed by the 10" Of Chivalry And Romance In A Dumpster in 1999. A single, "Black Panther Party," and the full-length Dance Party With This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb followed in 2001.
