The Original Child Bomb first formed in the spring of 1998 and consisted of: Tyler Klassen, Jason Lum, Jamie MacPherson and Gennesse Lengert. We played our first show at the Sardis Secondary battle of the bands under the name "The Victems", and came in second, playing only one original and two Dead Kennedys covers. We jammed once that summer, and in the fall, kicked Gennesse out, and enlisted the help of Nathan Johnson. We played our first show with the new lineup and a new name, "Altered Ego" on December 10th outside the Chilliwack Library to a cold and wet audience of about 25 that included Chilliwack MLA Barry Penner. We played a few more shows with that lineup, including one notable one at the Communist Party of Canada office with Hudson Mack and Submission Hold. In April of 99 we recruited the guitar stylings of Shon Gifford, an accomplishe musician who once served on a nuclear submarine (no shit!). Shortly thereafter we recorded a 6 song demo, entitled "What a shitty demo", which you can find at several fine pawn shops, and in the fall of that year, we recorded a full length album at Colombia School of Recording with some guy named Mike. The result of this recording was so terrible that we opted never to release it. All the while we played many, many shows with a variety of different people, like the Blue Collared Bullets, Outcast Individuals (with Stu Hood on drums) Side 67 and many others. We even played a show that was attended by Chad Kroeger (not that he was there to see us). In February of that year we received a threat from a shitty techno band from the states telling is to change our name or else, because they had it first, so we did, to "The Original Child Bomb", which is by all measures a cooler name anyway. A year after joining, Shon decided to call it quits and move back to illinois, dealing a crippling blow to the band. Though we persevered on through the following summer, eventually finding our footing and finding a new second guitarist in the form of Kristen (Billy the Kid). We finally parted ways in september 2000 when Nathan went to Alberta to go to Bible school.
What are the members of OCB doing today, you ask? Gennesse is a pizza delivery girl, Jason and Tyler play in new world on fire, Shon has dropped off the face of the planet, Jamie is a hippie, and Nathan is a carnie.
