Biography
San Antonio TX, United States (1993 – 2004)
SPASTIC INK is an American technical metal band that fuses elements of complex progressive metal, madcap cartoon music and soundtracks drawing inspiration from such diverse artists as UK, Rush, Steve Vai, Carl Stalling, and Danny Elfman.
SPASTIC INK was formed in 1993 by San Antonio, TX based guitarist Ron Jarzombek following the demise of his previous band, Watchtower. Joined by brother/drummer Bobby Jarzombek and bassist Pete Perez (both of Riot at the time), the trio cut a demo tape in 1994 but was unable to land a record deal and procure the necessary finances to re-cut the material as the music was deemed ‘not commercially viable’ by the labels they had approached. Eventually, the band signed a license deal with Germany’s Dream Circle label for the release of the original demos, slightly cleaned up and in parts re-recorded by Ron Jarzombek. ‘Ink Complete’ was finally released in 1997 and later re-issued by Jarzombek’s own EclecticElectric label in 2000 with 25 minutes of ‘work tapes’ added as bonus.
Work on a follow-up would prove tedious as Ron was forced to expand the original 3-piece line-up due to Bobby and Pete’s commitments with Riot and Bobby joining Halford, the new band formed by former Judas Priest vocalist Rob Halford in 2000.
