During 1979-1990 in Los Angeles,
45 GRAVE was born in the chaos of the
Punk movement and churned out their own brand of Ghoul Rock
that later was labeled the Deathrock / Gothic genre.
In the beginning, the original lineup consisted of
Dinah Cancer-Vocals
Paul Cutler-guitar
Rob Graves-bass
Don Bolles-drums.

The 45 GRAVE song "Partytime (Zombie Version)" made it onto the
movie sound track for RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD. Partytime
made full rotation on MTV (1984) and the song,
"Evil", debut on MTV's The Cutting Edge in 1985. Appearing on
many a teenagers wall or locker, Dinah was slated as
'The Queen of Punk and Deathrock' by many fan rags, and
became the ultimate horror punk pinup girl.
Touring the U.S., they grew up
with and shared the stage with artists
likeThe Damned, Specimen, The Misfits, The Cramps, and Black Flag.

45 Grave are cited in several rock music biographies
to being a huge influence on many of the bands
that surfaced from the L.A. scene,
including Motley Crue, Guns and Roses, L.A. Guns,
Faster Pussycat, Red Hot Chili Peppers, among others.
Their hit song Partytime
is still licensed for tv and radio ads today.

The bands momentum took a hit in 1991,
when bassist Rob Graves passed
away from an accidental overdose. The other members went
their separate ways, pursuing their own musical projects:
Dinah has been in several projects and
currently playing in 45 Grave with, Lisa, Jeremy, Kenton, and Stevyn.
Paul on with the Dream Syndicate, Paul is
now retired but still active with Dinah
and Don went on to Celebrity Skin
and is currently out with the GERMS.

45 GRAVE is back, lead by the original cemetery girl herself,
DINAH CANCER, on vocals.
45 GRAVE is a collection
of Punk, Metal, and Death,
the original songs of 45 GRAVE with a new lineup.
With songs like Partytime, Bad Love, Evil,
Concerned Citizen and more, this will be the closest
to 45 GRAVE that fans will see in their lifetime. Giving
the fans what they wanted one hour of the songs
that they love and grew up with. According to
Dinah, "I'm building this to keep the spirit of
45 GRAVE alive, introduce its magic to new fans, and
as a personal commemorative of my best
memories being the driving force and front person
of 45 GRAVE. This is a part of my life that indeed
changed me forever. Will it change yours?"
