Description
Fronted by Jerry Harper (aka Tyfoid Jerry), a 285 lb pro-wrestling monster maniacal presence, who sings, screams, and entertains non-stop for this hard rock quartet out of Denver, Colorado. Tyfoid has the makings of a big act with a visual flair and a music style that’s aggressive, abrasive, loud, and fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars very cool album, worth your money.
Hiya, very good musicianship. I love this album, listen to it every day for months and its still not old. Makes me rage. Guitars are wicked, vocals are really good. Lyrics are ingenious. I just wish Vince (vocalist) didn’t die so soon.
In July 2001, Tyfoid Mary lost its frontman, Vince Stott, in a fatal car accident. While such a tragedy would cause most bands to hang it up for good, Tyfoid persevered and found a new voice in Jerry Harper. He had his work cut out for him, as Stott was a well-regarded vocalist. But Harper — a giant in his own right at 6’5″ and nearly 300 pounds — brought with him a monster set of pipes and an imposing stage presence. From a marketing standpoint, Tyfoid Mary’s got a lot of things going for it, including a pun-friendly name and band members who fit snugly within contemporary metal’s two most popular visual categories: bald and bold (singer Jerry Harper and drummer “Dugan” Demongey) and hairy and scary (guitarist Scott Seidl and bassist Igor Panasewicz). The band is just as democratic from a musical standpoint.
