Mini bio

  • Born in 1975, in Dumont, New Jersey, little is known about Michale Graves' early life. When he was 19, in the fall of 1995, he was recording a demo with his band Mopes. He spotted an advert in a newspaper, that the Misfits were auditioning new singers. He leapt at the chance, officially joining the Misfits on Halloween, 1995.

    In 1996, The Misfits released their first album since Danzig left in 1983, called "American Psycho" and it was here Michale cut his teeth in the music business. The Misfits' next release was "Evil Live II" a compilation of Misfits songs performed live by this new Graves-Era Misfits. October 1999 saw The Misfits record and release their second studio album with Graves, entitled "Famous Monsters". That year, Japan's premier rock publication "Burrn Magazine" voted Michale "Vocalist of the Year."

    Michale appeared alongside the other Misfits in a small number of films, usually in small roles, as well as a short stint wrestling on WCW's "Monday Night Nitro" In early 2001, Graves left The Misfits, due to musical differences with founding member Jerry Only. He went and formed a new band with Dr Chud, who had left the Misfits at the same time. This new project was simply called "Graves." They recorded and independently released an album, "The Web Of Dharma", but it was unsuccessful due to its independence.

    Later on, the band split up, Michale was left with a lot of unwritten music left around. He made friends with the guitar tech for the, now former "Graves" guitarist. They began collaborating with two other players. They called this new band "Gotham Road" and have toured extensively. In June of 2003, they started working on a 7-song demo and preparing for their first US tour. Completely self-financed, their tour was a considerable success, all factor taken in mind. They managed to sell over 2000 copies of the demo in just 4 months. They are currently awaiting signing from a record company.
