Zoetrope was an American heavy metal band from Chicago, Illinois.
 Although their sound was akin to thrash metal, the group described themselves as "Street Metal".
 The group was formed in 1976 by teenage friends Barry Stern (drums/vocals), Kevin Michael Rasofsky, aka Kevin Michael, (guitar), and Calvin "Willis" Humphrey (bass), soon to be joined by second guitarist Ken Black.
 Initially playing covers, the band soon ventured into writing their own material and released a single in 1980.
 Although undeniably a metal band, Zoetrope was also active in Chicago's hardcore punk scene, sharing bills with locals hardcore bands and hanging out at O'Banions, a Chicago punk bar (Ken Black and Barry Stern also produced the self-titled LP by Chicago-based hardcore band Life Sentence in 1986).
 Following the release of a couple of demo tapes, the group was signed to Combat Records and issued their first LP, "Amnesty", in 1985.
 In 1987, the band traveled to Los Angeles to record their follow up, "A Life of Crime", with producer Randy Burns (Megadeth, Nuclear Assault).
 During the recording sessions, Ken Black left the band and returned to Chicago to sort out substance abuse issues.
 He was replaced by Louis Svitek.
 Although Svitek appears on the album's cover, Kevin Michael later confirmed that Ken Black had finished his guitar parts before leaving Los Angeles.
 During the tour supporting "A Life of Crime", Svitek was recruited for M.O.D. by Billy Milano.
 After the tour, Barry Stern jumped ship to fellow Chicagoans Trouble.
 Kevin Michael eventually returned with a new line up for 1993's "Mind Over Splatter" but the band folded for good soon after.

Kurdt Vanderhoof (born June 28, 1961) is an American guitarist, best known as the lead guitarist and founding member of the American heavy metal band Metal Church.
 As early as 1976, in Aberdeen, Vanderhoof was ardently networking with local musicians and had formed a band called Tyr, which included Kirk Arrington on drums and Vanderhoof on rhythm guitar.
 In 1978 Vanderhoof joined Seattle hardcore punk band The Lewd adopting the stage name "Blobbo" on bass guitar, switching instruments to guitar the following year.
 The Lewd relocated from Seattle to San Francisco in 1980.
 Following Vanderhoof's departure from The Lewd he formed Metal Church, named after a nickname given to his San Francisco apartment.
 Vanderhoof moved back to his hometown, Aberdeen, Washington, with a vinyl single of Trash Can Baby as proof of his interlude with the Lewd.
 In the summer of 1982, he formed a heavy metal cover band named Shrapnel.
 It consisted of Tom Weber on drums, Duke Erickson on bass (both from Hoquiam), Mike Murphey ("muff", from Montesano) and a guitar player Vanderhoof had jammed with in high school(Aberdeen).
 Shrapnel played four events to warm up, including a frat party at Pacific Lutheran University, after which the other guitar player quit, having had a religious experience, unwilling to cover The Number of The Beast by Iron Maiden.
 His part was replaced by Craig Wells of Aberdeen, and Tom was eventually replaced by Kirk Arrington (also from Hoquiam) on drums.
 When Mike Murphy left the band, they recruited David Wayne for vocal duties.
 By 1983, Shrapnel had renamed itself to Vanderhoof's original band name, Metal Church.
