Loudhouse

Biography

Loudhouse was a hard rock band formed in the late '80s that lasted only until 1992. Its members were Kenny Mugwump (vocals), Mike Cross (guitars), Tim Cross (bass), and Vinnie Dombroski (drums). In 1991, the band released their only full-length album, titled For Crying Out Loud by Virgin Records. In that same year, their cover of Deep Purple's "Smoke on the Water" was featured in the movie Point Break. Shortly after, Joey Mazzola was added to the band as a second guitarist.

Virgin Records dropped the band after realizing that Loudhouse was unable to grasp a large audience. Mugwump decided to pursue a career in acting and filming while the other 4 members created the post-grunge band Sponge (adding drummer Jimmy Paluzzi when Dombroski took the role of vocalist), which gained massive popularity unlike Loudhouse.
