MXDXEXTXDXE which is a lil different from his newer band XGRIFOX iis a trip, well enjoy the interview I did with Biggs straight from Watsonville.....What's your name and what bands were you in??? My name is Biggs I was in entoxicados , Mxdxextxdxe and currently play in xGrifox. What do you do in xgrifox??? In XGRIFOX I play guitar and do vocals and drums but now since XGRIFOX has had shows my friend curtis from the angry caveman (san jose) has been filling in on the drums duty. You said you played in mxdxextxdxe. what type of style was the band?? What did you do in that band?? How long was that band up and running?? Mxdxextxdxe was more like a thrash powerviolence style type of band and in mxdxextxdxe I did vocals and guitar and my cousin Cisco was the drummer he also drummed for entoxicados back in the days mxdxextxdxe ran for a year or two played a few shows and then called it quits Mxdxextxdxe was a cool band. I remember one of the tracks having a reggae breakdown, How did you come up with the name xgrifox? What influences would you say xGrifox has? Yeah we had a little reggae Intro for one of our songs Hahahaha pinche potheads .... and how I came up with XGRIFOX??hmmm.. well after mxdxextxdxe stoped playing I was bored at home not being able to jam out cus ppl in my town don’t play punk or pv so I invested on my own drumset and got one and from watching Cisco play drums since we was teenagers I toon what I learned from watching him and started jamming on my own and then one thing led to another and started recording songs and it went off from there... XGRIFOX influences are CRUDOS , RUIDO , CHULO , SORE THROAT , NAPALM DEATH , SORDO ,VOETSEK , SPAZZ CAPITALIST CASUALTIES , CROSSED OUT , NO COMMENT etc.. mostly Punk powerviolence and grindcore Oh yeah got to add GODSTOMPER. On that list too hahaha. How many releases do you have with xgrifox? I think it’s something. Like 23 releases only two demos and the rest are splits and two compilations Man that is really dope.Yeah I’m surprised I released all that stuff in a period of a year. Yeah one of the split was
with my band which was really chili.Yeah I actually like that split we did haha love playing yall’s side good stuff man we need to do round 2 for that one. Would you say your into Soccer how there a player name Grifo? Yeah I’m to soccer but I never knew that player from Germany had his last named grifo, I think it was you who showed me who he was hahha. Lol maybe we can added 2 more bands in that split, Yeah make it a 4 way split!! How did you get into the punk and powerviolence scene?? Well when I was younger I was into punk but it was like pop punk lol but then in high school my cousin gave me a burned cd of los crudos it had all of the discogrpahy once he showed me that I started learning more about bands like dri minor threat etc. Then I discovered spazz and capitalist casualties and from there that when I fell in love with powerviolence and this was back in 1999. Lol it kinda sounds like my story. Hahaha yeah we all started some where now that i think about it now a days I’m like how in the hella was in to pop punk hahaha But I discovered crudos in the future with powerviolence but I really like Pennywise I Still do to this today I have it tattooed lol. I was able to see them twice. Nice I still listen to bands like nofx screeching weasel at times haha I know a few homies who seen penny wise and they say they always play good sets Future release I’m working on a split with IOSEFXSPANISH.
