Black Flag collaborator Chuck Biscuits dies: Chuck Biscuits, the drummer who played with bands including Black Flag, Danzig and Social Distortion has died of throat cancer. The Canadian drummer, real name Charles Montgomery, died on Saturday at the age of 44, reports Punknews.org.
He was a member of Black Flag for five months in 1982, although he does not play on any official recordings with the band. He later joined Danzig at the invitation of producer Rick Rubin. He went on to play in Social Distortion before quitting in 1999.
Drummer Chuck Biscuits Dies at 44: Legendary punk rock drummer Chuck Biscuits died Saturday, Oct. 24, after a battle with throat cancer. Biscuits, who got his start with Vancouver’s D.O.A. in 1978 at the age of 13 and played with Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Danzig and Social Distortion, was 44 years old. “In response to the inquiries, thank you for all the support,” an anonymous family member wrote in an e-mail sent to fans early Wednesday. “Chuck did not survive his battle with throat cancer. He passed surrounded by his family on 10/24/09.” Born Charles Montgomery on April 17, 1965, Biscuits got his start with D.O.A. and was the brother of Ken “Dimwit” Montgomery, who also drummed for the influential group. At just 17, Chuck relocated to California where he joined Black Flag but after five months of touring, he quit to play with notorious L.A. punk outfits like the Circle Jerks, Fear and the Weirdos.
By 1987, Biscuits rose to prominence in the hard rock scene as the drummer for Danzig. While his powerful approach helping to define that outfit’s first four albums, Biscuits stepped outside of the hard rock realm to provide live drums on tracks like ‘Mary, Mary’ and ‘Beats To The Rhyme’ on Run-DMC’s 1988 studio effort, ‘Tougher Than Leather.’
At one time, Biscuits was rumored to be in contention for the drum stool slot that Dave Grohl ultimately filled in Nirvana. “Chuck was one of the best of the original wave of punk drummers,” founding Descendents kitman Bill Stevenson once said. “His style was easily recognizable, and he seemed to have just a ton of extra energy when playing his drums. He is one of those people who did not have to practice a lot to play really well.”
Chuck Biscuits, RIP: JGTWO reported the passing of drumming virtuoso Chuck Biscuits last week, following a long battle with throat cancer. Though Biscuits punched the clock with latter period stints in Social Distortion, Danzig and the Circle Jerks, his tenure with DOA and cup of coffee with Black Flag are what earned him his iconic status. Chuck was 44.
Chuck was easily one of my favorite drummers of all time and anyone who saw him play —- even with lesser lights — felt pretty much the same way. Ever heard the claim made that you’d go to see a band purely to watch the drummer? I did that a couple of time, simply because of Chuck. He was one of the rare drummers who elevated a merely good band to great, and on some occasions, took someone pretty mediocre and at least made them interesting. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues.
