DUSTED ANGEL new band featuring Clifford Dinsmore (ex - Bl'ast!, Gargantula, Spaceboy and M.A.D.)

Hailing from Santa Cruz, California DUSTED ANGEL is a stoner rock / doom outfit containg former BL'AST! vocalist Clifford Dinsmore. The band was actually formed by former BL'AST! drummer Bill Torgerson however,  2011 saw the departure of Torgerson to make Dinsmore the only former member of BL'AST! to remain in DUSTED ANGEL. The band currently has released their debut 7" in 2009 on Corruption Recordings and a full-length Cd titled "Earth Sick Mind"  in 2010 on Mankind Records. The band is currently writing and getting ready to record their sophmore release

M.A.D. (pre - BL'AST!)

M.A.D.stood for "Mutual Assured Destruction," the term which, depending on your political persuasion was either the greatest peacekeeping arrangement or meant imminent doom for all living things. M.A.D. were one of nearly four dozen Northern California and Nevada bands featured on the Faulty Products distributed Alternative Tentacles LP, NOT SO QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT.
M.A.D. were from the beautiful coastal community of Santa Cruz, California. The bandmembers went simply by their first names: Steve (guitar), Dave (bass), Bill (drums) and Clifford (vocals). Beyond that, little else, info-wise, seems to be available at this time...

*note the only difference was that M.A.D. had not yet included Mike Neider on 2nd guitar< which at that point they became the almighty BL'AST!*
