ALBUM & BAND TIME LINE
(very) brief history by year...


1985?
Holy Danger becomes a band with Chuck Pepper (aka Guy Ritter) Dee Harrington (who was in Saint at the time, and later on went back to Saint)) Avery G. Kramer and Darby Budd. Gary Lenaire also assists with the music! They 'release' some demo songs including "I Wanna Rock" and "The Code Word Is Go"

1990

TGGGuy, Gary and Ted Kirkpatrick become "Tourniquet" and release the brilliant "Stop The Bleeding" through Intense records. When they first started playing they still used the name Holy Danger, but decided to change it either to Tourniquet or Testify. Tourniquet was what they went for.





1991
"Psycho Surgery" is released, as a follow up to "Stop The Bleeding" and wins fans all over the world!

1992
After the recording of the third Tourniquet album "Pathogenic Ocular Dissonance" Guy decides to leave the band. One of the reasons being that the sound of Tourniquet was going heavier and heavier, and Guy wasn't so keen on the thrash kind of style.

In Sept '99 they do an interview in the Metal Mission Magazine. Guy says "We have already started writing for the next album. Three songs are already finished in pre-production . It is similar to the first album but also very different and more unique. We hope to have it out before December 1999."
