To be able to truly understand EKG you must first understand EKG's history. It all started off with a band named Yogurt. Yogurt originally consisted of four band members, Ben Waite on guitar, Jake Cornellius (of superior Nut Company) on guitar, Scott Gilbert on drums, and Stephen Jones on Bongos. After being together for about month, Yogurt soon had two songs, Lubricated Forhead and Carbonated Dreadlocks (a "reggae" Song). In early october 1999 Ben Waite asked Carter Lashley to Join Yogurt, and Carter agreed. Once carter joined, The band soon realized that they had a few problems.....Stephen had given up on bongos, and there were now three guitarists in the band. After a Few very unproductive practices Jake left the band. Now it was just Ben, Carter and Scott.... In an attempt to get vocalists, and a bassist, Yogurt tried to recruit new band members. The new band members included Claire Stoscheck (Vocals), Patrick Anguish (penny Whistle) and of course the brilliant Will Evett-Miller of Non-Existant, The Hank Roberts Trio, Oculus and Fallen stone. With this new line up, Carter, Scott and Ben were psyched....The new members met with Yogurt a few times and were unfortunately only able to produce shitty lenny kravitz and nirvana covers. Eventually Will left (said it "wasn't his type of music") and Ben, Scott, and Carter got sick of the others and kicked everyone else out. This left the threesome alone once again. Suddenly Carter picked up guitar and started playing a four chord progression, then ben started playing the same thing....then scott joined it. This four chord progression was soon to be known as Torso And The Bitch. It was a chilly december night, when Alex truit first came to the house of yogurt. He sat there as carter ben and scott went over torso and the bitch, and said "wow, why don't you have a bass player?" "Will quit, and we are still looking for one" Carter said. "I'll be your bassist." said Alex "But you dont play bass. You don't own a bass. In fact, you have never done anything with music in your life." Said ben. "So?" Alex casually remarked. "Ok fine by me." said Carter "Ok, fine by me." said Ben. "Whats going on?" Said scott. "Nothing, Just shut up and play your drums." Alex, Ben and Carter said in unicen(SP?). And that was that. Within a month, Alex had a bass, and was attempting to take bass lessons. He was too lazy to save up for a REAL bass, so he made spend $70 on a bass that was meant for kids half his size. The boys practiced once a week and soon had a couple more songs: The Moosewood fascism song, Masturbation (Soon became popular in Europe), teenage power ranger (Only played once in concert) and, The Diameter of Uranis is 50,000,00 km. (NEVER EVER EVER RELEASED...Only popular in the underground Yogurt fan club). One day, Scott said that the house of yogurt would no longer be available to practice in, so the band packed up their things and moved to Bens house. Ever since this amazing shift in the Yogurt practicing space, MUSIC HAS NOT BEEN THE SAME. City life was good, now the band was free to expand their musical experience...Yogurt was no longer a suitable name for this band. One night Alex, Ben, Carter, and Scott we chillaxin' and watching Pulp Fiction. During the movie one of the characters mentions that she used to be on a tv sitcom...this sitcom was called FOX FORCE FIVE!!!! "Thats it!" Alex Shouted "THATS OUR NEW NAME". Fox Force Five was the perfect name in Ben's and Carter's eyes but Scott wasn't too happy about this. "But people might get us confused with the Jackson Five!!!" Scott shouted. "Scott, just shut up and play your drums...This doesn't concern you." Said Ben, Alex, and Carter. And That was that.
