 Suicidal was currently banned from playing L.A. shows (largely due to the violent nature of their audience) and Muir was about to try his hand at producing as well as starting the label Suicidal Records with bassist Louiche Mayorga.Los Cycos was originally vocalist Mike Muir, bassist Bob Heathcote, Anthony Gallo guitarist and original Suicidal drummer Amery Smith.After a few rehearsals the line-up included Grant Estes on lead guitar, Gallo (rhythm), and original choices Bob Heathcote and Amery Smith were replaced by Louiche Mayorga (bass) and No Mercy's Sal Troy on (drums).
