Flotsam and Jetsam are an American thrash metal band formed in Phoenix, Arizona, in 1981. Before settling on its current name in 1984, the band had existed under three different names, Paradox, Dredlox, and Dogz. Their current lineup includes vocalist Eric "A.K" Knutson, guitarists Michael Gilbert and Steve Conley, bassist Bill Bodily, and drummer Ken Mary. Flotsam and Jetsam went through several lineup changes over the years, leaving Knutson as the only constant member. They are also notable for featuring a then-unknown Jason Newsted, who was Flotsam and Jetsam's bassist from 1981 to 1986, when he left the band shortly after the release of their debut album to join Metallica.
The group was founded in 1981 under the name Paradox by drummer Kelly David-Smith and guitarists Pete Mello and Dave Goulder, who were later joined by bassist Jason Newsted. Newsted had answered an advertisement that David-Smith had placed in the local newspaper, looking for a bass player. Newsted came to Phoenix with his band Gangster, from Michigan, on their way to California, but Gangster broke up while in Phoenix. David-Smith got a call from a couple of his high school friends, Mark Vasquez and Kevin Horton, looking for some people to jam with playing covers of bands such as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, MSG, and UFO. The band then morphed into Dredlox together with the new recruits, and Newsted was now the main vocalist.
The band made its live debut in local clubs and in California and secured opening gig slots for bands such as Megadeth, Armored Saint, Alcatrazz, Malice, Exciter, Mercyful Fate, Riot, Autograph and Icon. In 1985, Mark Vasquez stepped out and 17-year-old Michael Gilbert joined the band. Flotsam and Jetsam released two demo tapes Iron Tears and Metal Shock in 1985.
They recorded their first video "Hammerhead" from the Metal Shock demo: "We taped it in Jason and Ed's apartment living room. We also made a live video at the infamous Bootlegger in Phoenix" (owned by Gloria Cavalera, currently married to Max Cavalera). These videos and the band's demos made a good impression on record labels. After the band contributed to the Speed Metal Hell II and Metal Massacre VII compilations, they then signed a deal with Metal Blade Records.
1986-1989: Doomsday for the Deceiver and No Place for Disgrace
Flotsam and Jetsam recorded their debut album Doomsday for the Deceiver in Los Angeles, with Metal Blade Records producer Brian Slagel and engineer Bill Metoyer. The album was released on July 4, 1986, and was the first in Kerrang!'s history to achieve the 6K rating.
Jason Newsted, who was also the band's main lyric writer, departed soon after to join Metallica, replacing their bassist Cliff Burton, who died in a bus accident. On Halloween night 1986, he played his last gig with Flotsam and Jetsam. The band had asked another local bassist Phil Rind of Sacred Reich to fill in for a short time. They then hired Michael Spencer from the Sacramento band Sentinel Beast. Flotsam and Jetsam inked a deal with Metallica's then-label Elektra Records before opening for Megadeth in 1987 on the Peace Sells tour in Europe and North America. After touring with Megadeth, the band played selected shows in America with Slayer, Dark Angel, Possessed, Celtic Frost, Sacred Reich and Excel.
Michael Spencer left Flotsam and Jetsam shortly after a U.S. tour in the fall of 1987; his replacement was Troy Gregory. Their second studio album, No Place for Disgrace, was released in May 1988, and includes a cover of Elton John's hit "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting",[9] for which a music video was shot. The band toured heavily behind No Place for Disgrace throughout 1988 and 1989. They opened for King Diamond in North America, and supported Megadeth, Testament and Sanctuary in Europe on the So Far, So Good... So What! tour. The band also toured or played shows with Testament, The Crumbsuckers, Fates Warning, Destruction, Metal Church, Death Angel, D.R.I., Acid Reign and Kreator, and landed a billing for festivals, such as Milwaukee Metalfest, and played at Aardschokdag twice (in May 1988 and April 1989).

Simply FANTASTIC🤟
I saw these guys at an old renovated church in Salt Lake City Utah on the Cuatro tour late 1990 and they played for 2 hours. They deserve your attention.
What an amazing Band! 40 Years and still firing fierce on all cylinders! Eric A.K. is an absolute phenomenon. How is this possible? Guitars are not tuned down, but still, he absolutely delivers 37:10 - 38:14 This is a Testament to his greatness and of Flotsam and Jetsam's 🤘🔥🤘Flotz till death!

AK is sounding amazing and it's great to see Ken Mary back there throwing the thunder.
Ken is absolutely killing it in this band!
@@RedFlyRuledByTheRiff Great talent for sure!
THANK YOU for This !!!!! I've been a fan since DOOMSDAY , and They are STILL GREAT .. BETTER than most of The old school thrash bands that are STILL around !!!
Me too. Doomsday is such a great album🤘
Out of all the old school thrash bands, these guys have aged the best. 🤘🤘🤘🤘
I'd say that might be true if it weren't for Testament. 😉
@@jazzcatjohn oh damn you're right i forgot about testament. \m/
Destruction is still playing very well too Flotsam & Jetsam band members were in attendance at their show ruclips.net/video/4EZlDVwZB7E/видео.htmlsi=MlbpF-LeQtNRdpx9
That first track takes me back to a time and place.
Yeah definitely. Very nostalgic to hear their classics!
Danny Elfman's Batman theme is iconic.
Flotsam »I am The Weapon« Jetsam is still great after all these years and one of my metal favorites. Thanks a lot for presenting the whole show here on this RUclips channel.
Glad you enjoyed it! I started to listen to Flotsam after Metallica Garage Days EP with Jason on bass. Very nostalgic indeed!
@@MURZBO And i started with »No Place for Disgrace« - that is also around the time of Metallica’s Garage Days EP. Keep up the good listening :)
You guys played alot of older songs i really enjoyed that. You guys helped me get better at guitar 🎸 and helped me through hard times. I would rock out to your albums and have the strength to continue on. Never give up flotz for life.
Flotz till Death 🤘🤘🤘 Saw them the first time opening for Megadeth at the Peace Sells tour. Since Doomsday a fan. The last three albums are just killer and the next to come. Unbeleavable ....and fully underrated in comparison to some other old school bands from the 80ies
Yes saw same show in Phoenix, Possessed was also on bill
Questi ragazzacci li adoro alla morte...
They, Metal Church, and Overkill. Most underrated metal bands
true, but these guys waste those other 2, talent breadth and creativity.
Yes!
@@symphx3540 Dammit. I have to agree with that 😂 ..if you’re talking about newer music from those bands. I thought Mike Howe did a great job on the last Few MC albums, but the band kinda sucked.
Yeah we love flotz. I got doomsday for the deciver way after it was released. Like in 2009 and been a fan ever since classic thrash. Got to see them live at the cabooze minneapolis mn. Thanks erick you rock.
今も変わらず素晴らしいバンドです‼️Great‼️🤘🤘🤘
