Welcome to the official online home of underground rock from Eugene, Oregon circa 1980-1995. Relive the time you spent in someone's damp, smelly basement while you were in college!
Please email to Panicon13th@sbcglobal.net if you'd like a post removed because you don't want anyone to know about or ever hear your old band again.
Gordon Grant - Guitar Mike Gravelle - Drums Ryan Hunter - Bass Clay Hoffman - Vocals
Info surfaces from former member Ryan Hunter:
Divine Plague existed from roughly 1987 to 1993. we had the dumb idea
to trade instruments at least once every show, but the line up for the
most part was: vocals-clay "red bird" hoffman, drums-mike "mosh"
gravelle, six-string- gordon "gordy" grant, and four-string- ryan
"scumbag" hunter (all did vocals to some degree) I might have seen them play a house party once but it's hard to remember, one of those beer soaked evenings. Uber Hall maybe? I don't know, punk rock!

Brooks Masten - Bass Raenie Kane - Drums Paul Anson - Guitar Denise Christie (Hall) (RIP) - Vocals Runtmeyer were around for a brief period in '92-'93. I don't know anything about the band's history other than Denise left at some point and Debbie Nesbitt became the new singer for awhile. I saw them only once at Max's. I stood too close to the stage and it was so loud my knees actually buckled, one of the very few times that ever happened to me. I remember Raenie telling me that Ed Hutton was the engineer on this tape and that he chose to record "the drums first." I think she meant that that was not a good way to do things but this demo sounds pretty good to me. The only tracks that were ever actually released are #14. Apple Juice on the Pollen Count cassette compilation and #01 on the Slaughter on 13th cassette compilation. Very willing to add more info to this post if anyone wants to share band history, photos etc. Anyone have anything to add? Runtmeyer - Unreleased Demo 1. Grip 2. Lick the Wound 3. Apple Juice 4. Brown Paper Bag 5. Losing Battle 6. Another Day 7. Eat Apples 8. I Love You 9. You Don't Understand 10. Angela 11. Living in the City 12. Invisible 13. There's No Difference 14. Apple Juice (Pollen Count version)
