History
Unloco was formed in 2000 by frontman Joey Duenas. That same year, the band released a six-track
EP titled "Useless" through Captiva Records.The band was signed by Madonna's
Maverick Records label and onMarch 20 ,2001 , Unloco released their debut album "Healing" produced byJohnny K . The album struggled to sell, and the band's future with their label was uncertain.Soon after, guitarist
Brian Arthur left to join Goldfinger, and was replaced by Marc Serrano.Their second effort, "
Becoming i ", was released onMarch 11 , 2003, and was produced byAndrew Murdock – responsible forPowerman 5000 ,Godsmack , andChimaira , among other artists. During said year, the band toured with such household names asKorn , opened for "Music as a Weapon II", and appeared at "Ozzfest 2003". Despite the push from their label, "Becoming i" failed to meet expectations, and the band split up that same year.Since then, guitarist Marc Serrano joined the now disbanded
