Crumbsuckers

Crumbsuckers was an American crossover thrash band formed by bass player Gary Meskil in 1982 in Baldwin, Nassau County, New York.

Crumbsuckers combined thrash and hardcore punk sounds and themes, making an impact on the scene with their 1986 debut album, Life of Dreams.Though the band was supported by its fanbase and fellow artists, Crumbsuckers’ second album, Beast on My Back, failed to deliver on expectations. The departure of lead vocalist Chris Notaro in 1988 started the band’s gradual decline, despite the Crumbsuckers’ attempts to create a new identity. Even so, the band had already cemented themselves as pioneers of the crossover thrash movement.

Crumbsuckers played its latest reunion show (with Chris Notaro on vocals) at the 2015 Black N’ Blue Bowl Festival at Webster Hall (formerly the Ritz) in New York City on May 17, 2015.
